A-Basin additionally just lately up to date its snow stake following requests from skiers. The mountain’s previous snow stake was only a handcrafted picket signal of the mountain’s brand with no measurements. Storms on the mountain typically ski like there’s extra snow than is being reported, and A-Basin’s president, Alan Henceroth, needed of us to focus extra on the snowboarding than the numbers. Henceroth lastly caved, and for this season, A-Basin debuted a brand-spanking new snow stake, numbers and all.
