Signed up for a lesson this weekend and worried about the lack of snow? No problem. We're making snow and will be open for lessons starting Friday, December 4. At this point Hyland Ski and Snowboard Area will be open for lessons only. Opening soon to the public - check back for updates.

from the website, WTF, they have a bunch of snow in each webcam view, so two runs. shits weak.

My mindset was if hyland opens this weekend i will get to ski there but not summit on saturday because i have to teach but i was thinking If they don't open i don't have to teach and can go to summit. Now I can;t do either.

Correct. Theres tons of lessons scheduled for this weekend and they already cancelled lessons for this week. The reason they're not opening to the public is that they don't have enough snow made. BUt i just don't get how they can't make enough. They pumped over a million dollars into a new pumping system and they aren't using it. The forecast looks great for snowmaking too,

Glad I just read this. We were planning to go Friday when school got out. The temps are suppose to drop  for the rest of the week, so hopefully they will make enough snow to open it up for everyone!! I'll cross my fingers, and say some prayers:)

lolz...


i work for the park district, and its useless to try and understand some of the decisions made by them.

"only at the park"  these four words say everything you need to about the park...


although i can see how their decision could be a good one from their perspective, just not the general publics.
