Snow Reporter Comments: Happy hump day! Today will be cloudy and we might see a few snowflakes fall but no accumulation is expected. The recent cold temperatures and low humidity have helped our snowpack hold up nicely. The groomers are ripping and the terrain parks have been delivering this week. Expect temperatures in the upper 20s with light to moderate winds today. Get ready to rumble—the 2026 Solitude IFSA Qualifier big mountain competition begins tomorrow and will continue through this Saturday. Watch the top adult skiers and snowboarders in our region pick their line and execute with flair. This event is free for the public to watch and will take place off Eagle Ridge near the top of Powderhorn II chairlift. Mark your calendars and come ready to cheer!
