WILMINGTON, N.Y. --- For those of us who thought Stella was going to be another miss today, were we ever wrong. The biggest snowstorm of the season is here, right in time for the Saint Patrick’s Day weekend.

Whiteface Mountain, in Wilmington, N.Y., reported 33 inches of fresh powder as of 10 p.m., Tuesday night, March 14. More snow is expected during the overnight hours and well into tomorrow, Wednesday. So get out and enjoy the best skiing and riding of the season on the Olympic mountain.

And while you’re there, covered in fresh powder from ski or board to helmet, be sure to purchase your 2017-’18 season pass. Full season adult SKI3 passes begin as low as $759 and when purchased you ski or ride Whiteface for free for the remainder of the season.
