Turner Mountain Ski Area still open
Western News | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 15 years, 10 months AGO
The Turner Mountain Ski Area near Libby continues to operate despite a below-average season for snowfall.
The ski area’s Bruce Zwang said Wednesday morning that “it’s actually been very good skiing. The groomers have been doing a phenomenal job. There’s not a tremendous amount of snow but the skiing has been wonderful.”
The ski area is open Friday through Sunday. The slopes received a couple of inches of snow over the past few days and the forecast shows a reasonable chance for more this weekend.

Troy kept the bats hot in the second game, plating 21 runs to end that game early as well, 21-11.
