Thanks in part to a heap of early-spring snow, the annual Meltdown Games at Appalachian Ski Mountain this weekend were a success, according to marketing director Drew Stanley.
“We had a lot of snow both Saturday and Sunday, about 5 inches,” Stanley said. “The mountain had a great base-depth for it being March, and a majority of the slopes were open.”
The big air event Saturday was the weekend’s most popular event, Stanley said. Other events, such as the impossible box terrain park challenge, drew large numbers of riders and spectators.
“There were probably close to 100 riders this weekend, and a good show of spectators,” Stanley said.
