Snow Reporter's Update

Saturday 4/4:

10:05am Update: Summit is now open. Ski area boundaries are now Cow's Face > Upper Sunrise Getback > Lower Wanoga Way on the east and Summit Top ("The Hike") > Northwest Crossover > Ed's Garden > Lower Leeway on the west.

7:00am Update: Happy Saturday! Welcome back for another beautiful morning in the Cascades, complete with clear skies and a soothing alpenglow as the sun is just starting to crest the horizon. We're in for some truly sublime weather today, with forecasts calling for nothing but sunshine, light winds, and a high in the upper 50s. 

Pine Marten is slated to open at 8am for Passholder Early Ups. Early Ups boundaries will be Outback Way > Ed's Garden > Leeway on the west and Olympian on the east.

The Snake-Run Rally makes its Mt. Bachelor debut today, offering a fun, grassroots banked slalom snowboard event on a hand dug course. The course will be closed to the public.

Conditions permitting, our team is working to open Summit this morning. Check back here or view the Lift & Trail Status for updates throughout the morning, including details on boundaries and open terrain.

Be Advised: The snow surface is variable. Keep your speed in check and stay in control. Give other skiers and riders adequate space. Despite the new snow, coverage remains thin across the mountain. Please stick to open runs, expect marked and unmarked obstacles, and exercise caution. 

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.
