Round’ the Clock Snow Making

November 27th, 2007

Mother Nature has been kind so far this week.  Looks like we will be able to run continuously throughout the week and weekend.  Temps are perfect right now and the guns are pumping out massive amounts of snow.  The snow cats will be out first thing in the morning to start pushing snow and moving guns around.  Check out the web cam for a live shot of the action and stay tuned to the website and snow report for the latest conditions.

Opening this Weekend, Dec 1st & 2nd

November 27th, 2007

We will be open this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, Dec 1st & 2nd.  We plan to have 3-4 runs open with 3 lifts operating.  The Idun Terrain Park will also be open with rails, boxes and a small jump.  There will be special pricing for lift tickets due to limited open terrain.  Make sure you get up this weekend and start dusting off those ski’s and boards!

Snow Making Continues

November 22nd, 2007

Snow making is in full swing right now.  We are finishing up on Frigga for the Team Norway Race Camp tonight and will have it pushed and ready for Friday morning.  We will then move all those guns onto Vali and Freya to get those runs ready for the weekend of Dec 1.  We hope to have 3 or 4 runs open and the Idun Terrain Park ready.  Check the website often for photo’s and updates.

Good First Night

November 7th, 2007

We had a great first night of snow making! Temps didn’t get as low as we had hoped, but we still made a ton of snow. Guns will be shutdown around 9:00am and we hope to fire back up tonight. Stay tuned for more photo’s and updates.

First Morning

Snow Making will Begin Tonight

November 6th, 2007

The time has finally come that we can start making snow. They are forecasting lows in the 20’s tonight.  The plan is to fire up the guns around 8:00pm, and hopefully run well into the morning.  Might be our only chance to make snow this week.  We’ll keep the site updated with news and photos.  Stay tuned!

Closed for the Season

March 27th, 2007

Norway Mountain is now closed for the season.  Rain, sun and warm weather have melted most of the snow pack we had left.  Thanks to everyone for making this season another great one.  We had some difficult times with lack of cold and snow in the beginning to frigid temps and no snow in the mid-season to some snow and 70’s at the end.  We hope Mother Nature will be much more cooperative next season with her weather.  Also, be sure to buy your 2007-2008 season pass before April 30, 2007 and get the biggest discount over the full price of the pass.  Details can be found on the website.  Again, from all the staff at Norway Mountain, thanks for a wonderful season.  Stay tuned to this blog and the website as we begin to layout the changes and additions for 2007-2008.  It’s going to be a great season!  See you in November!

The End is Near

March 23rd, 2007

We are quickly approaching the final days of the 2006-2007 Season. We will be open this weekend with all runs and all lifts. The snow is holding up and conditions should be fairly good in the mornings and early afternoons. We will be closed during the coming week, but will re-open for March 31 and April 1 if conditions allow. Please call or check the website for more information on conditions.

Fresh Powder!

February 25th, 2007

Finally,  Mother Nature has blessed us with a major snow storm.  So far we’ve gotten about 8″ with another 4″-5″ forecasted for tonight and tomorrow.  We will only be grooming beginner runs tonight, so make sure to skip work and take some powder runs on Monday.  Monday night we will be grooming all runs and rebuilding both parks.  The fresh snow was greatly needed to freshen up the runs.  We expect to have great conditions this weekend as well with more snow in the forecast and temps in the upper 20’s.  See you all this week!

100% Open

January 21st, 2007

Forgot to mention that we are now 100% open.  All 16 runs are open with plenty of snow and some to spare.  Looks like we might even get some natural snow this week which will freshed things up nicely.  So make plans to get out of the house and enjoy a day or 2 at Norway.
