Current Conditions

Opening Day is this Friday at 9 a.m.!
We’re still ironing out the details as to which trails and lifts will be open, but we’ll likely have a much clearer idea by Thursday. That’ll give our snowmakers another night or two to really get cranking out there.

SNOW
Speaking of snow, we picked up 6” of snow this morning! The snow transitioned to a bit of rain this afternoon, but nothing major. The heavy, wet snow that’s covering the mountain right now is the perfect base building material – and forecasts are hinting at the potential for another snowstorm on opening day. Opening day powder day, anyone?

SNOWMAKING
Temperatures are forecasted to take a serious tumble tonight, and they’ll stay in the teens through Thursday morning. Our snowmakers will take full advantage of those temps to crank snow on a bunch of key trails, including Exodus, Bear Claw Extension, Upper Bear Claw, Flying Fox, Crosscut, Grand Junction, Link, Lower Bear Claw, Seven Brothers, Lower Picked Rock, and Sarsaparilla.

TERRAIN PARKS
Our parks crew is working hard to open a small park with several features for opening day. We’ll post more details as they become available, so stay tuned!

Think snow, and we'll see you Friday.

SNOW
We’re stoked to see the mountain blanketed in white, and the 6” that fell was honestly more than we were expecting. But hey – we’ll take it. Today’s snowfall is also giving us milder temperatures (and perhaps a transition to less-than-frozen precipitation later today), which means our snowmakers can take a well-deserved break. Once temperatures fall tonight, they’ll resume snowmaking on a bunch of key trails, including Exodus, Bear Claw Extension, Upper Bear Claw, Flying Fox, Crosscut, Grand Junction, Link, Lower Bear Claw, Seven Brothers, Lower Picked Rock, and Sarsaparilla.

So when is opening day? It’s all up to Mother Nature/Old Man Winter/Ullr...or whatever snow deity you worship. If this week’s forecast for cold weather holds up, we could all be skiing and riding very soon. As always, you’ll want to keep it tuned here over the next few days for all the latest snowmaking and operations updates.

Think snow, and we'll see you soon.
