The honest word on mountain conditions

SNOW ALERT! I like big dumps and I cannot lie!!!!!
I hope you still booked the day off! I was expecting 10-15CM, so am delighted with top to bottom, game changing snowfall well above that overnight, and falls continuing past 6AM!! Big wind is accompanying, so expect Upper Mountain delays/closures on lifts and terrain while avalanche assessments and control work are carried out. Corduroy might be a tough find as most grooming will have an amount of fresh on top. Winter is sooooooo back!!!
Taynton Bowl has significant new snowfall and heavy windload, so it's a fair bet to say it will be a while until we see it open. Typically our team will clear regions sequentially - summit frontside, Dream Zone, Stumbock/Heli High, Outback Ridge to Never Never, Monster plateau, Yeti/Wild Thing. Stay tuned for updates on the Snow Report page, socials, mountain signboards, and the underlying buzz around the mountain for access to fresh terrain! Heaps of snow right down to the base area so get in those powder laps on the Lower Mountain first thing!
Nordic trails will be very dependent on groom timing and subsequent snowfall today. Groom much improved since the warmer weekend, with a couple of subzero nights drying and consolidating the snowpack. Multi-use trails will also be improved for fat biking with refreeze cycles giving some firmer ground. 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!
