THE ONLY SNOW CASTLE IN THE WORLD IS AT WHITE PASS THIS WEEKEND

The highlight of the weekend is the giant snow castle. More than 2 and a half stories tall with 6 to 7 thousand square feet of tunnels and slides for the kids to ride tubes off the castle which is free. There's cool snow sculptures. The castle is open to the public from 10:00 am until 5:00 pm Saturday and 10:00 am until 3:00 pm Sunday. There's also fun in the lodge with Merritt and Rob spinning tunes for a family-friendly dance party!

PRO-TIPS FROM THE PROS FOR YOUR WEEKEND

Some tips from the skiwhitepass.com website;

PARKING - Parking gets tight, especially on Saturday between 9:45 am and 1:30 pm. Please plan accordingly.

CROWDS - If you are looking for smaller crowds, plan to attend on Sunday. NIGHT SKIING - SATURDAY ONLY - Tickets are available at the ticket booth beginning at 2 pm. Tickets provide access to the carpets and our Far East Chairlift.

FOOD - We will be offering our regular menu at the Cafe, Bistro and Espresso. High Camp will be open as well.

PRO TIP - SNACKS - Get some snacks in your pockets. Kids play hard and wear out more quickly when they play outdoors in the snow.
