INKOM — The recent storm system that hit Southeastern Idaho was very much welcome at Pebble Creek Ski Area.

The mountain received 32 inches of snow over 48 hours, bringing the total snow depths to 94" at the top and 52" at the base as of Wednesday morning. Snow this good doesn't come around every year, and the timing couldn't be more perfect this season. President's weekend brings fun on the mountain to local skiers and boarders as well as out of town guests.

Night Skiing is open to the public on Friday and Saturday nights from 4:00 to 9:30 pm. A limited amount of discounted lift tickets can be purchased in advance at Barrie's Ski & Sports in Pocatello for just $18. Otherwise, anyone can purchase a lift ticket at the ticket window for $25.
