Justin Dixon+FollowSki Resorts Are Seriously Lacking SnowVail and other big-name ski resorts are in a snow crisis—like, the slopes are looking more like hiking trails than winter wonderlands.

sperkins+FollowVail’s Ski Season Takes a Major HitVail Resorts just dropped some wild numbers: skier visits are down 20% this season, and it’s not just the slopes feeling empty—ski school and food sales are way down too.

Warm weather is messing with more than just your winter plans—farmers and snow plow crews are feeling it, while golf courses are loving life. #Travel #VailResorts #SkiSeason2210Share

Dr. Michael Henson+FollowYosemite firefall: No reservations, new rulesYosemite’s famous firefall is back this February—without the reservation system that’s kept crowds in check the last few years. Instead, rangers are rolling out stricter parking and walking rules, hoping to avoid chaos as thousands flock to see Horsetail Fall glow like molten lava at sunset. Expect to park farther away and walk about 1.5 miles in winter conditions, so bring warm gear and a flashlight. Some roads and river areas will be off-limits to both cars and pedestrians. Do you think these new rules will help, or is it going to be a mess out there? #Travel #Yosemite #Firefall10Share
