Saddleback Opens for 2009 - 2010 Season
~Special $25 Early Season Lift Tickets Offered~

RANGELEY, Maine - Saddleback Maine opened today for the 2009/2010 ski and snowboard season. With four trails open, a special early season lift ticket price of $25 will be in effect until more terrain opens.

"We opened today with four trails and two lifts in operation with terrain for beginners and intermediates," said Conrad Klefos, marketing director at Saddleback. "Although it's difficult to measure the snowfall due to high winds, we estimate the total snowfall from Wednesday's storm to be eleven to sixteen inches, providing a good base of at least 18 inches packed powder."

The natural snow has allowed Saddleback to open Middle Golden Smelt and Doodlebug in addition to the machine-made trails Grey Ghost & Wheeler Slope. To monitor the snow report, please visit www.saddlebackmaine.com.
