At Caberfae Peaks the 2006/2007 season has officially come to a close — The last three years, we have been able to ski thru the last full weekend in March. Unfortunately, it is not in the cards this year. Thank you to everybody for helping make this season what it was. We really bounced back after the slow start in December and the first half of January. We had some great weather starting in mid-January, with over 20 powder days and good crowds. We’ll see you next season.
