COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ski and snowboard season is here and Snow Trails rolled out some new trails and improvements to its snowmaking pipeline ahead of the busy season.

Those planning to head to the Mansfield ski resort, located at 3100 Possum Run Rd., will find expanded parking options in the West parking lot area and a new concrete lot with marked spaces. There will also be new LED lights in different areas of the slopes and parking lots for safety and efficiency, according to a release from the resort.

There is also two new trails: "Ridgeline" and "DC Drop."

"Ridgeline" trail will give access from Mt. Mansfield's slope to the West. "DC Drop" takes skiers down from the Ridgeline between the trees of Alpine Glade and Double Cross Trails back to the Alpine Cross Trail. 

As for the most important part of the resort — the snow — Snow Trails has installed a new snowmaking pipeline from the bottom to the top of the West Woods Trail. There were also improvements to its snow gun fleet to ensure maximum coverage and excellent conditions all season long. 

Snow Trails typically begins its snowmaking campaign during Thanksgiving weekend. Skiing and snowboarding season typically runs from late December through mid-March.
