COLORADO SKI REPORT

Last Updated: February 10, 2026

Colorado ski resorts are bracing for fresh powder this week, especially in the northern and central mountains. Tower SNOTEL near Steamboat Springs is forecast to receive the most snow statewide—up to 16 inches over five days. Nearby Dry Lake and Columbine sensors also report impressive totals of 15" and 11", respectively, aligning with Steamboat Resort’s outlook for excellent skiing conditions. In the central mountains, Schofield Pass near Crested Butte is forecast for 15" as well, with Crested Butte Mountain Resort and Gothic area snow stations confirming totals over a foot. Lost Dog (14") and Elk River (13") suggest strong snowfall in the Zirkel Wilderness, reinforcing the trend in northwest Colorado.

Southern resorts like Wolf Creek are holding steady with a solid snowpack (33") and 4" in the next five days. Telluride, near Molas Lake and Red Mountain Pass (both expecting 6–8"), should see moderate accumulations. Aspen and Snowmass are projected to receive 6–9" based on nearby Castle Creek and Independence Pass data. While Vail and Beaver Creek show lighter forecasts (around 3"), resorts closer to Schofield Pass and Butte (like Crested Butte) will offer deeper powder this weekend. The Front Range resorts (Loveland, Winter Park) will see limited new snow but continue to maintain good base depths. Overall, Steamboat, Crested Butte, and the northern Central Mountains are the best bets for fresh snow and optimal ski conditions through the week.
