Fall Colors Update

The trees are changing at the ski area and some of the leaves are starting to fall to the ground. The color spectrum is from green to gold to some changing to a beautiful orange. We all love this time of year. Each day seems to be a new adventure with the colors. The temperatures are starting to really cool off. We had a good frost last week and I believe this is helping with the colors.

We will certainly be operating the Scenic Skyride this coming weekend, Oct. 9 - 11 and next, Oct. 16 - 18. The ride operates from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We will then look at the colors to see if we will be able to operate for another weekend. It is chilly, so please make sure to dress warm.

Fall Colors

It was a beautiful drive up Snowbowl Road today. For weeks, I've been waiting for the trees to start changing color. I just love this time of the year. Well, the trees have started changing. Each day there will be new colors and better and better places to take photos and watch the leaves shutter in the wind and the fall to the ground.

For the next few weeks, I will post new pictures of the colors on our website. Click on the Fall colors link on the home page.

We still have the Scenic Skyride running Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 10 AM to 4 PM. I assume that we will have a few weekends with beautiful fall colors to enjoy. Don't forget to bring a jacket and maybe a hat. It's getting chilly up here.

Looking to Cool Off?

I've started to pay more attention on the temperatures that are reported at the top of each hour and at noon the past few days it has been in the mid 60's at the top of the Skyride. Sounds quite refreshing doesn't it.

Even though it might feel very comfortable, don't forget to bring a jacket... It tends to get a bit colder on the ride down the Skyride.

SUMMER OPERATIONS START MAY 23

It's hard to believe how quick we went from closing down from the winter season and getting ready to open for summer, but it all starts tomorrow. The Scenic Skyride will be operating daily, from 10 am to 4 pm until Labor Day. Then operations are Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays until mid-October. The Peak Side Cafe will be open serving a great sit down lunch. There is still snow at the top of the Skyride, but it won't last too long. We actually received about 3 inches of new snow at the top on Wednesday.

On Fridays - Sundays and Holidays, there will be Interpretive Rangers at the top of the Skyride to answer questions about the geology and history of the area. This is in thanks to a partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service and Snowbowl.

The disc golf course is now open, but hole #2 is still closed because of muddy conditions there. But we should have it open in the next week or so. We have many hiking trails that start from the resort; from the Humphreys Peak Trail to the Kachina Peaks Trail and many others.

There are many things to do in the summer at Snowbowl. Plan a few hours or an entire day and enjoy the Coconino National Forest and the Arizona Snowbowl.
