North Creek This Week, Thru Mon. Feb 21, 2022
Into Every Life, a Little Rain Must Fall!
Well, our run of stellar winter weather and packed powder has come to a temporary end with the warming of last weekend. Current forecasts are calling for as much as an inch of rain on Thursday and Thursday night with temps in the 40s. But the warm-up is short lived with a sharp cold front sweeping through on Friday. Snowmakers and groomers will be out in force. Trail and lift counts should remain high for the President’s Week. Here is the latest report. There is some opportunity for snow in the next week – but alas some days are sold out for advance purchase lift tickets. (All Gore Mt. lift tickets MUST be purchased online prior to arrival – CLICK HERE). And do check back – even for day-of tickets on the website as there are cancellations with Covid cases rising. Pictured left – recent Boarder-Cross event at Gore! A preview event for next year’s World University Games.
