November 14, 2024. long nights.

I have always liked the mid-fall time when the clocks go back an hour.

Short days, long nights and I always associate this time of year with the winter to come.

The mountains are white with a beautiful storm Monday Night with 4-6 inches of snow falling at the long elevation.

A few of the guides came down this week for some early season work and to help mount the new 2025 Volkl Ski fleet.

We are enjoying some time off this month after finishing the lodge Summer Season the first weekend of November.

December brings the first ever Holiday Dinner Experience to the lodge on weekends where new chef Matty Meheles will get familiar in the lodge kitchen and ready to roll when year 48 of Ruby begins the second week of January.

The Rubies are expecting a strong winter storm tomorrow with accumulating snow likely.

There are hints of a strong, multi-day storm around the Thanksgiving Holiday.

More to come.
