A New Era

NEW Legendary Passes


I am really excited to share our new season pass products for next winter season. Now honored at all three resorts, our suite of Legendary Passes offer something for everyone at an unbeatable value. For our longtime Snowriver die-hards, the Silver Pass offers you unlimited skiing and riding at Snowriver for only $475 while also providing access to Granite Peak and Lutsten with only 12 blackout dates. Perfect for taking a trip to check out our sister resorts to enjoy all they have to offer. For anyone without a pass for this season, we're offering a $99 spring add-on to ski the rest of this season beginning right away at Granite Peak and Snowriver and Starting April 1st at Lutsen. If you've never enjoyed a bluebird day on the shores of lake superior carving turns down Moose Mountain, I promise you won't be disappointed. Check out our website for more details. Passes go on sale this Saturday, March 4th. 

End of Season Plan

As we march toward spring, we're excited to keep the fun rolling as long as possible. Our plan is to operate Jackson Creek Summit daily until Sunday, April 2nd. Starting the following day, we will be getting straight to work on the removal of the old lifts to make way for the new Voyageur Express, so The Summit will remain closed from then on. This year we will be offering spring skiing over at Black River Basin Friday-Sunday of Easter weekend, before transitioning to Saturday-Sunday-only operations beginning on the 15th. 

March 5th $5 Sale


With the replacement of all the furniture in the Lodge at Jackson Creek this fall we have lots of surplus items to get rid of. We have well-built dressers, nightstands, chairs, bedframes, working air conditioners, lamps, bedspreads, pillows, and other items available for purchase. All items are $5 each or 5 items for $20. We'll be holding a rummage sale this Sunday, March 5th from 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm in the old health and racket building. Please stop by to check out what we have, lots of great deals to be had! 

Online Auction


Many of you have been asking since the fall what we're going to do with all of the Blackjack and Indianhead signage that we took down. We're excited to launch an online auction alongside our spring season pass sale beginning at noon on March 4th. The team and I have been working to catalog, measure and photograph all of the items and will be uploading them by the end of this week. Once ready to roll, we'll share the link to the auction on our social media, email lists, and on our website. Be sure to check it out and maybe you can own your own piece of Big Snow history.

On the same note, we're also going to be auctioning off a select number of chairs from each of the lifts we're removing to make way for the Voyageur Express. We'll have 50 chairs from the double, triple, and quad all up for bidding during the spring pass sale running from March 4th through May 14th at 8:00 pm. Don't miss this rare opportunity to purchase one of these chairs for yourself. They make great porch swings or benches for your backyard campfire. Bidding will start at $250 per chair or buy one right away for $750 and skip the bidding. Stay tuned for the link to the auction site!

A Good Night

Last night was a good night. We received 10 inches of new snow and had 12 guns running at Black River Basin from midnight on. I went out with the crew this morning and got the first guns of the season running at Jackson Creek Summit. Funny enough the first gun we fired up happened to be labeled gun #1. It feels great to be making snow across both mountains.  As I write, the crew is still working on getting the snowmaking system fully up and running. It will be a good run from now until mid-day tomorrow when we’ll need to shut the guns down for warmer temps. The forecast for the weekend looks very good for snowmaking. We should be able to make a significant amount of snow, getting more terrain closer to opening.  About Powder Thursday  The snow we received in the last 24 hours is fairly wet and heavy, not exactly the UP powder we know and love. While not the best for deep powder runs, this wet snow will help to create a solid base, especially in the glades and on our steep...

July Already?!

In the month since I last sat down to chronicle all the activity on the mountain, we have accomplished A LOT. The team from Ruotsalas has completed pouring concrete and backfilled the foundations for Towers 2-10. This leaves Tower 1 and all four terminal foundations to complete but is still a big milestone as it allows us to revegetate the access roads created to reach tower locations on the side of the hill.  The rest of the pours are much more easily accessible via pre-existing and solid roadways, meaning rainy weather is much less of a threat to our forward progress.  Tower 9 foundation is backfilled with grass already growing. -7/8/2023 With the Tower foundations substantially completed, the focus shifts to the top and bottom terminal locations. At the bottom, we are undertaking a massive regrading project to improve skier access to the lift from both the east and the west sides. The loading mound of the former triple lift has been completely removed and redistributed at t...
