Sugarbush Resort Forced to Suspend Mountain Biking Operations due to Too Much Snow
Warren, VT (October 3, 2008)- Ah& the fall. Hillsides of saffron and scarlet. And now you can add white to the color palette. Two inches of snow fell on the top of Sugarbush Resort this morning forcing the resort to suspend its lift-serviced mountain biking. The season's first snow came just as the fall foliage in the Mad River Valley is reaching its peak. With the opening of winter operations slated to begin in just over 50 days, the early brush with winter was welcomed as positive sign of things to come.
"We gave up trying to predict the future years ago, but an early October snow is always a promising sign," said resort Communications Director JJ Toland. "If anything, it really ratchets up the excitement level."
Snow removal crews were dispatched to the top of the Super Bravo chairlift and by mid afternoon, mountain biking had resumed.
