Bluewood ski area now open

DAYTON—Bluewood’s 40th anniversary ski season began on Friday, December 20, as the winter sports area welcomes skiers and snowboarders to the mountain.

“We look forward to having our guests enjoy the slopes again,” says Kim Clark, General Manager. “Thinking back, we’d also like to thank the hundreds of people who’ve invested and worked hard over the last four decades to make Bluewood a reality and bring this mountain to life. This season is about celebrating all of those people and all of our guests.”

New to Bluewood this season: a large fleet of skis, snowboards and helmets; a deck around the Yurt at Sun Spot; digital menu screens and a new grill in food services; remodeled pub; and two webcams (one at the base and one at the summit).

Bluewood will be open daily from December 20 through January 5. Daily hours will be 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

In January, Bluewood will be open Wednesday through Sunday every week and on Martin Luther King Jr. Day (Monday, January 20). The operating schedule for the rest of the season will be available on bluewood.com.
