Tough viz? Wave thy magic wand
Wednesday 2/18:
7:00am Update: It's looking like a true winter wonderland out there this morning, with snow flocked trees and a haze lingering at mid-mountain and above. We received just under 2" of light and dry powder last night, and we should see continued snow showers throughout the day for another 2-4" possible accumulation.
Dress warm! Masks and low-light lenses are going to be the gear of choice today. We're seeing current temps of just 13° at West Village base, with on-hill weather stations posting figures in the single-digits, and moderate winds expected. We should be in for another day of superb snow conditions thanks to the cold temps - we'll see you out there.
Despite recent snowfall, coverage remains thin across the mountain. Please stick to open/named runs, expect marked and unmarked obstacles, and ski or ride with caution. Always keep your speed in check and stay in control.
Snow immersion suffocation (SIS) and tree well risk exist today. Ski or ride with a partner and keep them in sight at all times. Stick to open, groomed trails to minimize SIS hazards. Educate yourself on deep snow safety here.
Be prepared for winter driving - AWD/4WD, high-clearance vehicles, and chains or snow tires are recommended. Check ODOT for real-time weather, traffic, and road conditions.
