About 62,400 skier visits were tallied at the resort on Big Mountain between Christmas Day and News Year's Day to set a new record for the time period. The busiest day over the week was Monday, Dec. 30 with nearly 9,500 skier visits counted.
The previous record was notched during the 2022-23 season with 54,300 skier visits during the holiday week.
