Snow Reporter's Update

Saturday 3/7

9:40am Update: Rainbow is now open.

7:00am Update: Happy Saturday! It's yet another stunning morning to be in the mountains. We're greeted with clear views to the summit under mostly cloudy skies, and the morning sunrise is really putting on a show currently. Today's forecasts call for mostly sunny skies, mild winds, and a high reaching the upper 40s. Red Chair is scheduled to open at 8am this morning for Passholder Early Ups. Early Ups ski area boundaries are Leeway on the west and Olympian on the east. Please adhere to closures until normal operations resume at 9am. Winter Pridefest continues with Pride Runs on Little Pine and Pine Marten today, as well as a dance party at the West Village Lodge with a live DJ. The full schedule of events can be found here.

Today's the day we've all been waiting for. Conditions permitting, we intend to open 100% of our terrain today, including all the Bachy favorites: 360° skiing and riding off the Summit, the Backside Bowls and West Bowls, as well as the Summit uphill route. Due to warming temperatures, snow conditions may be variable - ski or ride with caution.

Rainbow will start the day on hold and is expected to open around 10am. Cannon Beach will be closed today for a USASA Slopestyle event. 

Be Advised: Keep your speed in check and stay in control. Give other skiers and riders adequate space. Coverage remains thin across the mountain. Please stick to open runs, expect marked and unmarked obstacles, and ski or ride with caution.
