A fresh inch of snow greeted early risers at Snow King Ski Area this May 1st, with overnight temps dipping to a crisp 31°F. The base depth holds strong at 55 inches — just shy of average — supported by a robust snow water equivalent of 23.9. While the 24-hour forecast calls for a light 0.12" of precipitation, skiers can expect packed powder conditions on the upper mountain, transitioning to soft spring snow at lower elevations as the day warms. With only a minimal additional snowfall expected over the next 72 hours, now is the perfect moment to carve through lingering winter on this storied Wyoming hill.

However, visitors should stay informed: operations may be affected by a recent inbounds skier-triggered avalanche that temporarily closed portions of the mountain earlier this week. Patrol teams have been working diligently to reassess terrain safety. Snow King, affectionately known as the “Town Hill,” continues to offer a more intimate, uncrowded alternative to its neighboring mega-resorts. As regional attention remains fixed on Jackson Hole and Park City, Snow King’s late-season resilience and charm are drawing locals and die-hards alike. Don’t miss your chance to experience spring skiing in a place where community and mountain spirit still shine.
