As ski areas continue the transition to off-season, I hope our annual guides will give you some inspiration for the next season.

The hills are hopping, the trails are alive with the sound of snowmobiles; winter has arrived. As snow area operations are in full swing I hope you find a moment to relax with this issue of SnowOps.
Welcome back! I hope this issue of SnowOps finds you coming off of a safe and enjoyable summer.
Just like that, we say farewell to another snow season. However, April also means this issue has our annual guides tucked inside.
