Summary

While the slopes are open and the holiday spirit is high, Mother Nature has been stingy with snowfall. With a snowpack depth of just 9 inches—over 70% below seasonal average—conditions are variable and best suited for early-season cruising. Overnight temperatures reached a mild 37.6°F, which may soften the base and affect snow quality as the day warms. However, hope is on the horizon: nearly 3 inches of fresh snow are forecast over the next 72 hours, with an additional 2 inches expected by the weekend, offering a potential refresh to the cover.

In the meantime, there's still plenty of fun on the mountain. Pomerelle is leaning into its family-friendly charm with a special Free Ski or Snowboard Day for beginners—perfect for newcomers looking to enjoy the slopes during the holidays. The resort's unique blend of elevation and community vibes offers a welcoming backdrop for holiday memories, even with limited snow. And for seasoned skiers seeking deeper powder, backcountry terrain nearby is reportedly offering steep and deep conditions for the adventurous. Stay safe, stay festive, and keep an eye on the skies—more snow may be just around the corner.
