1 min read

RANGELEY – Saddleback Maine is planning to open on Thursday, Dec. 16 for the 2010/2011 ski and snowboard season. A special early season lift ticket price of $35 will be in effect until more terrain opens up.

“The temperatures have been perfect for snowmaking, plus we accumulated over 18 inches of natural snow from the most recent storm,” said Chris Farmer, general manager of Saddleback. “We’re excited for the season to begin. Among other improvements, we’ve cut new chutes in Casablanca Glades, which is part of Kennebago Steeps, the largest steep skiing and riding area in the East.”
