Blue Mountain will fight to stay white this weekend as it hosts some on hill events for this years’ Ontario Winter Games.
On March 1 and 2, Blue Mountain will host the snowboarding, alpine and para alpine events.
“We will be moving forward as planned,” said Tara Lovell, spokesperson for Blue Mountain. “We certainly have conditions on parts of the hill that last for the next couple of weeks. If there are any snow-making opportunities, we will take advantage of them.”
Blue Mountain’s snowmaking team can make snow once the temperature reaches -2.2 degrees Celcius or lower.
Athletes, ages 12 to 18, from all regions of Ontario will compete in the Ontario Winter Games hosted by Orillia. Click here for schedules and information on this year’s event.
