The honest word on mountain conditions
Village
Summit
FEB 18
A welcome refresh gave us 13CM top to bottom through the last day and a half, and it was riding beautifully on the backside terrain yesterday, prompting multiple laps for many! Most of the link trails are groomed today to help us get around the mountain more easily. The majority of lower mountain terrain is groomed today, as well as most mid mountain mainlines. Prepared options through central Sun Bowl and Founders, with most other runs in those regions skiing as clumped powder. Soft, powdery bumps are back in fashion on the likes of Tacky and Millennium. It's feeling a bit like off we go for winter 2.0!!
Taynton continues to ski well overall, with decent packed snow base, and some fresh powder on top. Some areas are feeling amplified, with pockets of snow laying deep! Winter has returned, with a timely refresh. Monster X is running all week.
Nordic groom has a good packed base for great conditions overall, and some fresh falls into the mix. Multi-use trails are back on for fat biking and will be much improved with new snow. 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!
