Summary

With an unseasonably warm overnight low of 43.5°F and a sparse snowpack of just 6 inches—nearly 73% below average—coverage is limited, and off-piste terrain is not recommended. Groomed runs are open but thin in spots, with firm morning surfaces softening under midday warmth. Base-area snow is patchy at lower elevations, and conditions may change rapidly throughout the day.

Fortunately, a modest change in weather is on the horizon. The 24-hour forecast calls for 0.5 inches of new snow, with totals reaching over 4 inches by early next week. While not a storm cycle, any fresh snow will help improve skiability and refresh high-use trails. No urgent local news is impacting mountain operations as of this morning, and access roads are clear. Guests are encouraged to use caution on steeper terrain and check with the resort for daily grooming updates and lift status.
