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.

Winds ran throughout on the top half of the mountain yesterday, changing up the nature of the skiing. More exposed areas became wind blown and/or wind packed, while more protected slopes maintained a softer feel. Some areas benefited from a 'redistribution of wealth' as blowing snow deposited in the lee of tree stands and into gullies. Good light powder play in both Sun Bowl and Founders in these protected profiles. Soft powdered bumps on lower Schobers, Tacky and Downhill. Exploring into gullies of Taynton and the Zone found some fresh turns and Monday's tracks starting to fill in with blown snow. I had a great solitude lap through Donnie B's after lunch, where you would have thought Taynton was closed just for me - not a soul in sight from the summit gate until the end of Taynton Trail! I'd wager I'll have some more 'private' runs again today!
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!
