McCALL -- Near-record snowfall and low spring temperatures are creating ideal conditions at Brundage Mountain Resort. Resort officials announced today that they will be open for a third bonus weekend in May.
The resort is currently closed on weekdays, and had planned this Saturday and Sunday to be the final ski weekend of the season, but that was before 10 inches of fresh powder fell this week. Now, resort managers have decided to be open on May 3rd and 4th.
Mother Nature has been extremely kind to us this year, said resort spokesperson April Russell. And our loyal visitors have shown that they are still interested in skiing and riding on the best snow in Idaho.
Resort operators are keeping a close watch on Mother Nature and customer interest to decide if additional weekends in May are possible.
This is the first time Brundage Mountain has ever offered lift service in the month of May.
Brundage Mountain has received 422 inches of snowfall this season. That makes this the second snowiest winter on record.
Perhaps Algore will get in some time on the slopes at Brundage next week?
Thanks to all the money he has conned out of people with this Global Warming mythology he could easily afford to take the trip.
I skiied there a couple of years ago. I was a nice area with great slopes. One thing I really liked was that the lift operators made sure that the knuckle draggers, aka snow boarders, didn’t use profanity in the lift lines.

Thanks!
I’m sitting at my desk in Missoula, MT looking out the window at our local ski area, Snowbowl. It closed two weekends ago. There is still plenty of snow up there to ski on. It’s been a banner year for skiing this year. It’s been snowing in the mountains all week.
It’s really cold here.
Does Al Gore ski?
He’s probably a knuckle dragger like John F’n Kerry.
Perhaps Algore will get in some time on the slopes at Brundage next week?Yeah, I heard he was flying in on his private jet to attend a Global Warming conference...
