Summary
With 2" of fresh snow forecasted in the next 24 hours and a much-needed 21" on the way in the next 120 hours, conditions are poised to improve significantly. Currently, the snowpack sits at 21", roughly 10" below average, with a snow water equivalent of 4.9". Lifts are spinning, and while conditions remain early-season variable, the incoming snow is expected to deliver a solid refresh before the weekend.
This week also brings relief and renewed energy to the resort, as ski patrol returns to duty following a two-week strike that had previously disrupted operations and led to lengthy lift lines. With labor tensions easing and a snowstorm brewing, the mountain is poised for a strong rebound. Meanwhile, speculation continues to swirl around local billionaire Matthew Prince’s interest in purchasing the resort and potentially linking it to Alta via gondola—a long-shot dream that has the ski community buzzing. Whether you're chasing powder or après vibes, Park City is setting up for a dynamic start to 2026.
