Arizona Snow Play!

For the first time, Northern Arizona has an organized snow play area with plowed and managed parking, hot beverages, sleds and other concessions.  Activities include sledding, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and playing in the snow.

Sadly, the snow is gone.  We are closed for the season as of March 17.  See you next winter!
