Snow Reporter Comments: 3PM Update:  It was a bit of a weather roller coaster today with intermittent rain, consistent wind and pockets of clearing we hoped would hold on. The good news, is the worst of this week's warm/wet weather seems to be behind us - just in time for a fun weekend on the mountain! The overnight temps the next few days will be approaching, and then dropping below freezing - hopefully allowing the amazing grooming crew to do their magic and patch the mountain up. As the season winds down, we may as well enjoy as many weekends as we can. To paraphrase Warren Miller - if you don't ski this weekend, it'll be one less weekend when you do ;) For those still around the mountain, live music is kicking off in Taps and will go until 6PM.As patrol surveys the mountain and determines safe routes, we'll keep you posted on any trail adjustments. Buy Now, Ride Now with a 2026 Spring Pass, a 26/27 Schweitzer Pass or a 26/27 Ikon Pass.
