Snow Reporter Comments: Mountain Report 4/30
7:00am Update: As the sun rises on this final day of April, a look west reveals a gleaming white Mt. Bachelor standing tall above the tree line to offer a truly inspirational start to your morning. Taking full advantage of a 105” base, our grooming team has once again laid out miles of smooth corduroy for your skiing and riding pleasure. Although West Village base currently reads a brisk 25°, an inversion has mid-mountain reading closer to 35° already, which should make for edgeable and rapidly improving snow conditions as we approach a high in the 50s later today. Winds are expected to remain light throughout the day.
Don’t forget, with Cloudchaser and Northwest both slated to wrap up operations for the season on Sunday, May 4th, today makes 5 remaining days to enjoy late-season laps on our outlying terrain. If you haven’t already, download the Mt. Bachelor App to have some extra fun pursuing specific achievements for each lift, such as the “Head in the Clouds” or “Westside Winder” medals.
