FROM Friends of Valley Spur >> Tuesday the 17th of March. The UP has been hit by a Historic Snow Storm and snow is still coming down. Very high winds (62 mile an hour) that have taken out more trees then we can count. Power is out, roads are closed and we have no idea when our kids will be back to school. The Valley Spur Committee has made a tough and the right decision to end grooming for the season. The work and financial cost it would take does not warrant our reopening. We are all sad that our ski season is being cut short. The forecast for Thursday is calling for a rain/snow mix. We have had a great season for our Passholders and Visitors and are very thankful. We can't say enough good about our Groomer John Cromell. John you are so appreciated, along with the many volunteers it takes to run Valley Spur. VS is a great community to be apart of. I don't have a total snowfall total but at least 30". I have attached a pictures of my home in down town Munising. This is after it was snowplown the day before. Locals please attach pictures so others can understand. We can't get to the Valley at this time. Stay safe and we hope you come back and ski with us next year.

FROM Boyne Mountain Resort >> We like big jumps and we cannot lie.
We are still buzzing from Air & Après and it might be a while before we come down. #boynemountain #snowboarding #SkiMichigan
FROM The Highlands >> ❄️❄️Powder days, bluebird laps, and “one more run.”
Set yourself up for all of it next winter. Lock in next season before prices go up. Last chance to buy at the lowest prices of the season ends on March 19th!

McSauba >> Welcome to the winter snow storm of the year! We've had a few people asking, and the ski hill will continue to be closed tonight for the safety of all skiers and our employees.
