As the winter season continues, ski enthusiasts are eager to hit the slopes, and the latest snowfall and forecast data indicate prime conditions in several key areas across the nation. Over the past 24 hours, Oregon has seen substantial snowfall with King Mountain leading the pack at 18 inches of new snow, closely followed by Bigelow Camp and Silver Creek both receiving 15 inches. While the weather in Oregon has largely been a mix of rain and snow, winter sports aficionados will be pleased to find that the higher elevations at these resorts should provide a fresh blanket of snow to enjoy.

Turning our attention to California, the forecast for the next 24-48 hours is promising for skiers and snowboarders, especially around the Tahoe area. CSS Lab, Independence Lake, and Squaw Valley Golf Course are expecting over 90 inches of snowfall, which is likely to deliver exceptional powder days ahead. This substantial snowfall, combined with the already solid bases, sets the stage for superb skiing conditions. Skiers in the Lake Tahoe region should prepare for an intense convergence of fresh powder that will refresh the trails and off-piste areas.

In Idaho, Schweitzer Basin and surrounding regions are also gearing up for a notable snowfall, with Schweitzer Basin expecting 26 inches of fresh snow. The heavy snowfall here and at other Idaho resorts like Galena and Banner Summit, each expecting over 20 inches, is great news for skiers and snowboarders seeking deep powder and well-covered slopes. Winter sports enthusiasts should take advantage of the new snow, but also be mindful of travel conditions as the heavy snow may affect access to resorts. All in all, the coming days look promising for powder hounds with an array of resorts boasting significant snow accumulations.
