Mike's Skiing BlogSpringtime - Raft and Ski the Same Weekend! We are really pushing the envelope this ski season as evidenced in Maine where you can whitewater raft and ski on the same weekend. Sugarloaf Ski Resort has teamed up with Northern Outdoors adventure resort to offer skiers and paddlers a unique opportunity to partake in what are usually separate season sports. So, if you are in the area, take your turns on the Dead River on Saturday and do them in the snow on Sunday at Sugarloaf. This is your only shot because Sugarloaf, where it snowed 8" this week, is closing Sunday. Also around the country you can still ski at Jay Peak and Sugarbush, Vermont, Arapahoe Basin, Echo Mountain, and Loveland in Colorado, and Mt. Bachelor, Mt. Hood Meadows, and Timberline in Oregon. In California head to Heavenly, Mammoth Mountain or Squaw Valley USA. Also open is Brundage in Idaho and Snowbird in Utah where they got 18" of snow in the last two days.
