January 5, 2025 FSA Grooming Report
CONDITIONS:
-7C at cabin elevation. Trace amounts of new snow in the past 24 hours. 22cm in the past 7 days. Total snowpack heights variable based on riding zone but 220cm measured at the plot. Total snowfall this season 449cm. We’ve seen light snowfall over the past few days, adding approximately 10 cm of fresh powder on top of 30-50 cm (or more) of settling snow from the holiday storm cycle. Snow conditions remain highly variable, with wind-affected and firmer snow in exposed alpine areas, while sheltered spots below treeline offer deeper, softer powder. Groomed trails are in fantastic shape across the board!
Today: Mainly cloudy. A few flurries or occasional snow during the morning and early afternoon, diminishing chance of flurries later in the day. Light accumulation, possible 2 to 5 cm. High -4 or -5.
Tonight: Cloudy with clear periods, slight chance of early evening flurries. Low near -10.

We’re Open! Staging is at our regular valley bottom parking areas and all trails have great coverage.
