CONWAY — After Friday’s heavy mixed precipitation, groomers did their stuff to get the trails back in shape as skiers looked forward to clear skies and warm temperatures for some spring skiing this weekend.
Note: Due to overall concerns about the coronavirus (COVID-19), King Pine officials this week canceled this year’s 24-Hour Cynthia’s Challenge Ski-A-Thon that was set for Friday and Saturday, March 13-14.
