Arizona Snowbowl STILL open for skiing/boarding! (And so is Sunrise Ski Park)

We are into spring and Arizona Snowbowl is STILL open for business! This is amazing because Snowbowl doesn't make artificial snow but they still claim to have over 7 feet of snow at mid-mountain, which is more than most ski resorts in Colorado. I would have to imagine it will be slushy like a 7/11 Slurpee which is why they've discounted the tickets. See news bulletin below.

P.S. I just checked Sunrise Ski Park's ski report and they are still open as well. Since they do make snow, it should be a better experience, especially for this time of year.

News Release
ESCAPE THE HEAT!!!
Only a Few
Weeks Left to Ski

The warm temperatures and sunny skies have brought out the shorts and short sleeve shirts to the Arizona Snowbowl. But these skiers are not going to be sitting by the pool to start their tan, they will be shushing the slopes until the last lift ride of the season, on April 13. Despite the warm temperatures, Snowbowl still has over 7 feet of snow at mid-mountain, which is more than most ski resorts in Colorado.

"It's a shame to close with all this great snow. We hope people will take advantage of the wonderful spring conditions and the discounted April rates. We would like to stay open as long as we can, and we will, as long as we have good attendance", states Snowbowl's G.M., JR Murray. He reminds people to "not put your ski equipment away yet - you have all summer to bike & hike, but not much time left to ski and enjoy the snow."

"In April, Thursdays are Local's Appreciation Days. This is our way of saying Thank You to the skiing community for such a great season. We are slashing prices, lift tickets for an Adult are only $10, for Juniors (ages 8-12) are $5 and rental equipment is $15," he continues.

During the month of April, Snowbowl is also changing its operating schedule. Their lifts will operate Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays (April 3 - 6 & April 10
- 13) from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. They will be closed Mondays, Tuesdays & Wednesdays.

As always, guests Ski Free on their birthday and Snowbowl will honor the Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday birthdays on Thursdays in April.

Snowbowl is also discounting ticket rates. Lift tickets for Friday - Sunday are $25 for Adults, $15 for Juniors and rental equipment is only $20. These rates start at 10:00 AM and last all day - one low rate for one great day.
