Summary
Conditions on the mountain are packed powder with some groomed runs offering smooth turns, though watch for hardpack sections in high-traffic areas. Overnight low temperatures dipped to a crisp 27°F, helping preserve snow quality across most of the terrain.
Looking ahead, only 2 inches of snow are forecast over the next five days, so today may be your best bet for fresh tracks in the near future. With snowpack at 93% of average and 6 inches of water content in the base, coverage is still solid for early February, even if a bit lean. If you're itching to get some turns in, today offers fair conditions — especially for intermediate skiers who favor groomed trails. Just don’t forget to wax your skis for speed and edge control on the firmer spots.
