The snow should be fine that time of year, but there's no way to know for sure. It's all major highway driving to us regardless of what direction you're coming from. During peak holiday times, you must make sure you allow plenty of time in case there is heavy traffic. If you're coming from Denver on a Sat morning, I'd pick a different day or come up the night before b/c a 2.5 hr drive can turn into several hours if you leave the city at the wrong time. You will have to take weather conditions and traffic into consideration to make sure you get here on time.
Q:
Hi! I would like to know if you will be open thanksgiving weekend?
A:
As always, it will depend on early season snow. Many times we will not know for sure until a couple of days prior as to whether or not we'll have enough snow to build a safe trail to run …
A:
As always, it will depend on early season snow. Many times we will not know for sure until a couple of days prior as to whether or not we'll have enough snow to build a safe trail to run on. If we are, we fill in quickly. I can tell you that it will be the Tag Sled Tours only at that point, even if we are able to run. I will take reservations for that time just in case, as you will definitely need a reservation with our limited availability. All of our descriptions and information can be found on our website.
