Slush Cup at Baldy Mountain Resort
In case you hadn’t heard, Baldy Mountain Resort has too much snow and is extending its season by one week, meaning it will end on Easter Weekend.
The final day of the year, Sunday, April 9th, will feature the iconic Slush Cup.
If you are itching to hit the slopes one last time during the Easter Weekend, you won’t want to miss this event. As a way to say goodbye to the ski season, Baldy Mountain Resort will dig out the slush cup pit and fill it up with some surely cold water for skiers and boarders alike to brave the aqua-neige as they try and skim across it, complete with some great costumes.
More information about the mountain, snow conditions and the Slush Cup can be found here.
