FLAGSTAFF, AZ — Skiers and snowboarders have one last weekend to hit the slopes this season at Arizona Snowbowl.
After receiving a total of 344" of snow between November and May, the Flagstaff ski resort announced on its social media channels Tuesday that it would end its "longest season ever" after this weekend, May 18-19, 2019.
At the beginning of the month, the resort extended its season for an additional two weekends in May, breaking the record for its longest season. The resort said the previous record was set during the 2016-2017 season.
"344” of snowfall, 158 days of good vibes & memories. From 11/16 - 5/19, thank you for being a part of the Longest Season Ever. All good things must come to an end, but until then, we can’t wait to celebrate with you," the resort said in a tweet.

On May 24, the ski resort will swap snow for sunshine and scenic views.
