Summary
The snowpack depth currently sits at a modest 6 inches—nearly 70% below average for this time of year—making early-season coverage sparse on the lower mountain. While groomed runs remain skiable, off-piste terrain is not recommended due to exposed obstacles and limited base. Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) is at 1.6 inches, underscoring the need for more significant snowfall to bolster the base.
Looking ahead, skiers can look forward to a potential change in conditions with 2.13 inches of snow forecasted over the next 72 hours and a total of 3 inches expected over five days. While not a game-changer, this incoming snow could refresh surface conditions and bring a welcome wintry feel. No major local news stories are currently impacting resort operations, leaving all lifts spinning as scheduled. For those hitting the slopes today, expect spring-like snow and variable coverage—best enjoyed with caution and a good pair of rock skis.
