Updated Tuesday 20 Feb 2019

Sugar Mountain:
It seems like all tthe runs areopen and they're in great shape. 
They know how to run a ski slope here.  They groom the runs well.  The rain and warmth have not gotten the mountain to where we give a thumbs down.

Beech Mountain:
The slopes are in great shape.  White Lightning and the back side run called OZ are NOT open.
