The Solitude Mountain Resort snow report for Dec 15 is a 17" base depth with 3 of 8 lifts open. Please note ski conditions and snowfall at Solitude Mountain Resort are sourced directly from the ski resort and are only recorded during the official ski season's opening to closing dates.
Snow Reporter Comments: Grab the sunscreen, you’re going to need it today with bell-to-bell sunshine on the schedule. High pressure continues with temperatures reaching the low 40s. Conditions are variable and surprisingly spring-like: expect firm snow to start the day and a softening surface as the sun goes to work. Icy sections are present in heavily compacted and shady areas. Control your speed and look out for other guests, especially at merge zones and breakovers. Moonbeam Express, Apex Express, Link, and the Magic Carpet are open, providing access to 7 trails and the Upper Tude Dudes Terrain Park. Due to early-season conditions, we currently have no beginner terrain accessible from Moonbeam. 12 Days of Holiday Cheer continues today with special deals on retail at both Canyon Fever locations.
