Winter has returned to the Midwest and Snow Trails Winter Resort in Mansfield, Ohio. Around midnight Tuesday, November 27, 2007, the snowmaking guns were powered on at Snow Trails Winter Resort. The snow making crew let loose the full power of every snow gun, across the 60 acre resort. The high power machines worked through the night and into the morning to produce the beginning snow base.

With steady progress, it won't be long before the slopes will open for the 47th season at Snow Trails.

Special events each weekend start with a "Kick-Off Party," December 15th in the Snowflake Loft. The "Red Ball Jets" will headline the evening's entertainment. In its second year at Snow Trails, the Vertical Descent Tubing Park has Tuber's awaiting first passes down the Park accompanied by an extended run-out of over 150 feet, increasing ride-time.

For up-to the-minute information about opening day and current snow conditions, call "The Snowline" (419) 522-SNOW or 1-800-DEC-Snow (332-7669).
