Colorado is seeing varied snowfall across its ski areas, with the heaviest accumulations in the northern and central regions. The Never Summer (46"), Rabbit Ears (55"), and Ripple Creek (53") areas lead in snowpack depth, bolstered by 4-5 inches of forecast snowfall over the next five days. Resorts near these stations, like Steamboat and Winter Park, are set to benefit from fresh powder, making them prime destinations for skiing. Hourglass Lake, Lake Irene, and Joe Wright also report strong five-day forecasts of 5 inches, with snow depths exceeding 27". This aligns with nearby areas such as Rocky Mountain National Park, which might see enhanced conditions for backcountry skiing.

In the Front Range, Copeland Lake, University Camp, and Niwot show 6-7 inches of expected snowfall in the next five days, favoring resorts like Eldora. Meanwhile, southern and southwestern regions, including Wolf Creek Summit and Upper Taylor, report minimal snowfall but retain strong snowpack depths of 31-43". Aspen and Vail, while maintaining respectable depths (41-42"), have modest forecasts of 1 inch. Skiers targeting areas with substantial new snowfall should focus on the northern mountains or Front Range, while southern destinations like Telluride and Durango may offer more stable conditions.
