The honest word on mountain conditions

Taynton Bowl - Closed

December 15, 2025

Due to ongoing precipitation, there is an increased risk of avalanche hazards and variable skiing conditions, therefore Taytnon will remain closed for the day.

Snow Information

DEC 16
Wild and wooly weather in the past 24hrs - precipitation, very mild temperatures and high winds. It has given a range of conditions to enjoy and/or contend with. Taynton remained closed yesterday with increased avalanche risk, and with 12cm new snow at summit in the past 24hrs coupled with high winds overnight, I'd expect we will see at least delays on that terrain again today. Upper mountain skiing was pretty decent yesterday and will repeat once more, getting a little thicker in texture as you descend towards Elkhorn elevation. There will likely be a refreeze line changing the feel underfoot about hallway down the Champagne runs, with the village displaying some slushy conditions in the warm weather, especially later in the day. Some more snow is in the forecast later today and through the night, so we have more good skiing to look forward to in coming days.

Panorama Nordic Centre at Greywolf is open, and they also have selected trails open and groomed. Check the website or in person for more information.

Weather Information

DEC 16
Mostly cloudy with a little new snow overnight, and potentially a bit more today under a mostly cloudy sky. Sustained moderately strong SW winds at summit and Elkhorn elevations overnight, with strong gusts of 70-80km/h. Winds should decrease somewhat into the afternoon. Village remains calm to light breeze. Temperatures are well into subzero on the upper mountain, and cool enough to make snow above Mile One. Village mercury has gone the other way, raising to +4C for most of the night. Forecasts expect this trend to continue today - positive down low and cooling as you rise through elevation.

About Snow Report Evan 2

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!
