A crisp start to April greets skiers heading to Silver Mine, New York, with an overnight low of 21°F preserving a surprisingly deep 9-inch snowpack—an impressive 700% above the seasonal average. While only a light dusting of 0.13 inches is forecasted in the next 72 hours, a promising 3 inches is expected over the next five days. The well-maintained base is holding strong, offering solid spring skiing conditions for those chasing the last turns of the season. Trails remain groomed and fast in the morning, softening slightly by afternoon for a forgiving ride.

Despite a challenging winter for many ski regions in the Hudson Valley, Silver Mine continues to defy the odds, with conditions drawing late-season enthusiasts. As highlighted in recent conversations about New York's disappearing ski heritage, Silver Mine stands as a rare survivor in a region where resorts like Toggenburg have shuttered. With nearby Thunder Ridge just opening for the season thanks to artificial snow, Silver Mine’s natural snowpack is a testament to its unique microclimate and enduring appeal. This weekend could be one of your last chances to carve through real snow before spring fully takes hold—don’t miss it.
