Mt. Waterman Ski Resort open today through Monday

“Snow from the heavens not from the hoses.”

That’s the sweet note on the top of an e-mail that landed in my mailbox from Mt. Waterman Ski Resort inviting folks to revel in fresh powder at the Angeles National Forest site just 34 miles north of the 210 Freeway on Highway 2.

Recent storms have dumped enough fresh powder–and maybe more coming this weekend?–to open all three chairs. As of Thursday, the resort claims a 42-inch base with 2 to 3 inches of fresh snowfall Wednesday night.

Mt. Waterman opens today at 9 a.m. (Feb. 13) and willoperate daily through Monday.

All-day tickets cost $45 for adults, $35 for teens 13 to 17, $20 for children 6 to 12. Valentine’s Day special: Girls get $10 off. The slopes are open until 4 p.m.

For information on conditions, call (818) 790-2002.
