Operators of Koteewi Run Slopes say that unseasonably warm temperatures have hindered opening of the popular snow tubing facility. Staff hope to open the slopes this evening if Thursday’s rain and warm temperatures have not melted the snow.

Attempts to make snow will be dictated by the weather, allowing only a few hours only a couple of nights until later this weekend. Operators are optimistic that winter will return with the new year, and Koteewi Run staff expect things to improve dramatically in the first week of January.

If you’ve purchased passes, Koteewi Run has sent out rain check emails. Please calls them at 317-776-9199 with your preference for an alternate date. At that time, you will be sent a new confirmation.
