Skier descends freshly groomed Tumwater ski trail at Mission Ridge.

12/1 Conditions Report

10:00 Conditions Update: It’s bright and sunny at the Ridge, with temps in the 20s and nearly all lift-accessed terrain open, including 28 groomed runs! We’ve got most of a great day still ahead of us, so definitely come up and join us if you want to end Thanksgiving Break on a high note.

6:30 Conditions Report: Welcome to December! We’re excited for the start of “real” winter this month, although looking at our snowy slopes you might think it had already arrived! For the last day of Thanksgiving break, we’ll continue to spin all our chairlifts and have nearly all lift-accessed terrain open following near-record snowfall in November. We’re expecting fair weather today, with partly sunny skies and a high near 29 at the summit.

Please continue to use caution as you explore the mountain, as thin cover and obstacles exist.

All resort services will be open, including the Chair 5 Pub, Ka-Wham Cafe, and Midway Lodge.

We’re also continuing our tradition of honoring local heroes through the Firefighter and Emergency Personnel Appreciation program. From opening day through December 15th, we’re inviting Firefighters, EMTs, and Law Enforcement professionals—including 2024 seasonal personnel—to enjoy free skiing and riding as a thank-you for their service.

See you on the mountain!

That being said, we have a great terrain selection due to our near-record November snowfall. A majority of lift-serviced runs will be open, and the Mountain Ops team has been hard at work to get your favorite groomers in prime condition. For a full grooming report, click here.
