    CAMDEN — The Camden Snow Bowl has announced there will be just four more days of spring skiing before the mountain closes for the 2014-2015 season. Weather permitting, of course.

    The mountain will be open for skiing and snowboarding Friday, March 27 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday, March 28 and 29, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturday, April 4 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

    Sunday, March 29 will be celebrated as Camden Day. With proof of residency, Camden residents will be able to ski on Camden Day for $10.

    "Camden residents are a large part of the reason that the Snow Bowl has existed all of these years. This is a way to say 'thank you,'" said Snow Bowl General Manager Landon Fake.

    This season was the shortest since 2010, but for those who got out, they were treated to a new view from near the top of Ragged Mountain. They also made their ascent riding the mountain's new triple chairlift, which began officially operating Jan. 31.

    According to Snow Bowl staff, the mountain was open this year for 58 days. The Snow Bowl was open for skiing 71 days during the 2010-2011 season, 68 days during the 2011-2012 season, 70 days in 2012-2013 and 67 days in 2013-2014.
