A skier in red carves on a sunny day.

1/7/25 Conditions Report

10:00 Conditions Update: The groomers are skiing smoothly today, with some slight variability with elevation. Lower elevations runs are a little softer, but at the summit it is sunny and bright and the snow is edgeable. Visibility is good today, and the view from the summit is stunning. Take a moment to stop at the top to take a selfie with Rainier and Mt. St. Helens before cruising down the slopes!

6:30 Conditions Report: That sweet winter sun is here for another day! Part sun and calm conditions are set in the forecast today. It’s staying cold overnight so the base is curing nicely for our grooming team to lay down some fresh corduroy. With these comfortable temperatures and mid-week sun, now is a great time to round up the whole crew and explore what the mountain has to offer!

See you on the mountain!
