Updated 1/17/2021: I hope you got out on Saturday. Bear Basin was above the clouds and it was a sunny warm day. Looks like there might be a chance of snow on Sunday. It is not predicted to be much and should not keep the skiing from being excellent. Will be grooming in the morning.
Updated 1/17/2021: Groomed all the skate lanes with the snowmobile. Should be good for all activities. There is a new loop in the field North of the Activity Barn.
Updated 1/4/2021: For those who are not aware the properties that the old Activity Barn loops were located are under new ownership. We have
permission to cross a short section of that private property to access Brundage''s Activity Barn property. We are experimenting with new trails on the Activity Barn property, check the valley County Pathways for grooming updatexs.
