World Snow Day at Crystal Mountain

Jan. 13, 2024

Snow is finally here, so now there's all the more reason to celebrate those frosty flakes. (Perhaps then they’ll stick around!) Crystal Mountain is hosting a free World Snow Day event on Sunday, Jan. 21, where snow newbies and enthusiasts can chill out and geek out about snowmaking and snowsports. First up, starting at 12pm, head to the slopes behind the Crystal Center to get a behind-the-scenes look at how snow guns and groomers work. Then, try out something new with free presentations on cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, downhill skiing, and snowboarding. A scavenger hunt will also be offered throughout the day—pick up clues at the Park at Water’s Edge. Add to the fun with ice skating ($12/person) or fat tire biking ($20/person). Get all the details at crystalmountain.com/event/world-snow-day.
