admin — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 07:11:56 +0000

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. (We have recently added new picture to our gallery).

Update 3/2/12: Closed. It has been a very frustrating year, with snow melting within days of falling.

Wing Mountain is an outdoor recreation area. Make sure you dress appropriately for the cold. In particular, visitors should expect icy patches on the ground and need to wear sensible outdoor shoes. For example, women are encouraged not to wear high heels.
