The honest word on mountain conditions
FAST FACTS - BEST SNOW EVER!
SAFETY REMINDER: RESPECT CLOSED TERRAIN
While we’ve enjoyed some excellent snowfall this December, not all areas of the mountain are ready or safe for skiing and riding. Closures may be in place for several safety-related reasons, including active snowmaking, snow conditions, grooming operations, or snowcats (including winch cats) actively building and preparing trails.
For your safety and the safety of our crews, please obey all posted signage and never duck rope lines. Closed areas are clearly marked and are off-limits until they are officially opened.

Summit
JAN 8
Another beauty morning on the groomers yesterday, with good conditions on Rollercoaster bettered by a sublime Fritz, for grippy turns all the way down. Little Dipper opened yesterday and is into the daily grooming schedule. Prepared paths today down skiers left Sun Bowl and Ostrander in Founders.
Good powdered bumps on Heaven Can Wait varying in size according to pitch. Nice tracked powder and bumps down lower Schobers. Strobl is skiing nicely, as usual, after a recent groom, while McIntosh has some tracked powder pockets to play in around the fringes and ducking into the trees. Good turns for days outback in Taynton with cool temperatures maintaining snow condition, and wind deposits leaving some faceshots loaded.
Panorama Nordic Centre at Greywolf have all nordic trails open, regularly groomed and in great shape! Multi-use trails are all open and should be groomed on the regular schedule going forward. Check the website or in person for more information and to purchase passes.

Eyes to the skies, head in the clouds, but feet on the planks! The Wandering Wordsmith is back on the scene for season 14! Meet your Snow Reporter:
His office is expansive, the heating bills are low
The floors are far from level, but the feng shui has good flow
All around, the views abound, but not through a window
Out and about on our fair mount, sliding on the snow!
Analytical tools aplenty, intel from the brainstrust, the knowledge and wisdom of the Panorama Avalanche Office, reports from the grooming crew, and the processing power possessed by the Countess of Accumulation, all combine to resource and inform your snow report.
In conversation with a weather station; providing explanation of the information; finding inspiration in precipitation; it's an interpretation with imagination! Not languid with his language, he knows his semaphore from his metaphor and his airhead's from his oxymoron's. Leading you to the rough diamonds and well groomed alike, it's all about explain and infotain for a net gain in our terrain!
