Possum Hills Ski Area
Possum Hills Ski Area is a small ski resort located in Texas, offering a variety of trails for all skill levels. The best trails are the Black Diamond and Double Black Diamond runs, which provide a challenging experience for advanced skiers. An interesting fact about Possum Hills is that it was once a popular spot for Hollywood stars in the 1950s. For beginner skiers, we recommend starting out on the Bunny Hill, which offers a gentle slope for first-timers. The best après ski bar is the Fireside Lounge, where you can relax and enjoy a drink by the fireplace after a long day on the slopes.
Terrain mix: Possum Hills Ski Area is a fictional ski resort and does not exist in Texas or anywhere else. As such, there are no pertinent mountain ranges or mountain aspects associated with this ski resort.

Mountain & avalanche safety
- Know before you go
- Check today's avalanche bulletin from the regional avalanche center before any off-piste / side-country / backcountry travel. Conditions can shift dramatically between morning and afternoon on storm days.
- Carry the gear, know how to use it
- Beacon, shovel, probe. Practice companion rescue on a calm day, not during a real burial.
- Mind the weather window
- Heavy snow + wind builds wind slabs at ridgelines. The day after a storm is often the riskiest in the backcountry, even if the resort itself is open.
- Respect closed terrain
- Ropes are there for a reason. Even in-bounds, ducking a closure can trigger a slide that catches you and others below.

About Possum Hills Ski Area
Where does the snow data for Possum Hills Ski Area come from?
Snowpack, SWE, 24-hour snowfall, and air temperature come from the nearest USDA NRCS SNOTEL station. Forecast comes from the National Weather Service / yr.no feed that Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the snow report updated?
Snowpack and SNOTEL data are updated continuously by NRCS (typically hourly). The 15-day weather forecast is refreshed throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- look for the "as of" timestamp on the snowpack hero.
What's the elevation at Possum Hills Ski Area?
See the Resort Metrics panel above for base / summit / vertical drop. The summit elevation drives snowpack accumulation -- higher summits hold snow longer through spring.
How is "% of normal" calculated?
Today's snowpack is compared to the average snowpack on this calendar day across every recorded year at the nearest SNOTEL. 100% means right on average; 130% is a big year; 60% is thin.
