3/8/2026 Conditions Report

1:30 Operations Update: 
Chair 2 will remain closed today due to high winds.

10:00 Conditions Update: 
I took a slide on Chairs 1 and 4 this morning.It looks like the sun is breaking through the clouds and visibility was great below midway!Chair 2 is still on a wind hold, and that very same wind is making for some blustery conditions down below. The runs may be affected in places by some smaller twigs and boughs that have blown onto the run, which is actually quite nice for depth perception should the light become flat.However, the groomers on Chairs 1 and 4 are carving nicely! The snow is soft and forgiving, with a solid layer underneath, making for a really stable skiing surface.
8:00 Operations Update: 

6:30 Conditions Report: 

Good morning skiers and riders!

We are in for a mild yet blustery day today. Temps at the summit dropped below freezing last night, whereas the base area stayed about 40. This is likely to set up firmer conditions a the summit but softer conditions below Midway by the time our lifts start spinning. As I walked around the base area this morning, the groomers were soft and forgiving whereas the off-piste had set up over night.

Temps are forecast to drop over the next 24 hours, likely starting during the day today. There is a slight chance of precipitation throughout the day, possibly falling as rain early in the day and transitioning to snow later in the day. However, total precipitation quantity should be minimal, as we are predicted to have mostly sunny skies.

We are currently experiencing very windy conditions on the mountain, with forecasted winds of around 40mph at the summit. Due to an issue with the summit weather instrumentation, our summit wind speed is not reporting accurately at this time. We are working with our partners at NWAC to resolve this issue.

We will see you on the mountain!
