Come Together at Windham

Windham, NY - Winter is not yet finished here in the Northern Catskills. Look for some snow Thursday night into Friday before a high pressure system takes over for the last week of March. A dry cold front will slip through on Thursday, and temps will turn quite cold for late March by Friday. The weekend looks nice for spring skiing/riding (and Pond Skimming) with sunshine and temps in the 40's during the day. Nighttime temps in the 20's will help set up the snow and make for great spring conditions once the sun and warmer temps hit the snow in the morning. These weather conditions will keep the snow consistency firm in the morning and gradually softening through the day. This is a great pattern because the snow doesn't get too heavy by early afternoon - we call it 'hero snow'.

Pond Skimming will be here on March 27th-if you haven't participated before, this is your chance! Sunny skies and great temperatures will make this event a blast this year - the grooming staff will work all morning to construct a 75' pond out in front of the lodge. Join us around noon - even if you don't want to participate, this is a must see! And, don't forget, DJ Pat del will be on the patio starting at 10am Saturday and chair and table side drink service is still being offered, featuring $3 drafts! Come soak up the sun and spring skiing with Windham Mountain!
