Slush Cup 2018 wraps up the season
There were slips, spills and solid runs at Sunday’s 2018 Slush Cup but one thing remained consistent: everyone left the course with a smile on their face. The Slush Cup event,where skiers and snowboarders attempt to come down a run and successfully glide across a pool of water, marks the end of the 2017-2018 season at the Pass Powderkeg SkiArea (PPK). Many achievements and “firsts” were hit this season.

More Than Meets the Eye
It is a sure sign of spring (no pun intended) when one sees those wind-whipped cascading waters pouring down onto the old highway that at one time wrapped around the south edge of Emerald Lake. It used to be that we got to drive by that [...]
