Daily Report
Tuesday, March 10, 2026. 6:46AM
A Tuesday in early March with a forecast containing sunshine and a high of 56 degrees. How awful, who would ever want to ski in such horrible weather? Obviously, the correct answer is YOU. Next question: Where is the best place on earth to be, on a sunny warm winter day? OK, the questions are getting too easy here, let’s move on. Our trails have held up incredibly well in this stupendous stretch of warm temps. We’ve still got over 40 trails open, most of them groomed just a few hours ago. If you’re a fan of Spring skiing (and who isn’t, really?), we cannot stress enough that today is the day to be here!! The gates at the Big Three Quads (Rangeley, Kennebago, South Branch) start responding to your Flow Card at precisely 9am!
If they’ve invented anything better than standing at the top of Saddleback Mountain under sunshine and blue skies and being able to see forever, in every direction you can turn your happy little face, please send us an email and let us know what it is. And don’t be telling us AI is better, or the combustion engine, or toothpicks, or something silly like that. Because those things are not better. OK, well maybe toothpicks, but for sure none of that other stuff.
This weekend we have our Back to the Banks competition, snowboards on Saturday, skis on Sunday. Please be aware that construction for the Banked Slalom has begun on the lower section of Grey Ghost. The weekend of March 28, Saddleback is home to the Ski Patrol Auction and The Gambler Uphill Challenge, followed by Spring Bash Weekend April 3-5. The fun up here just never ends, and even if you just wanna come ride the slopes, well, hey, that’s fun too!!
