Conditions & Weather

January 15, 2019: Good morning skiers and snowboarders! Today we will have Summit Central and Alpental open 9am-10pm. The weather experts are calling for this patchy fog at the pass level to burn off soon, then becoming mostly sunny with the freezing level near 5,000'. Alpental's expert only chair, Edelweiss, is above this morning fog to start the day. However, I recommend starting the day on some of the freshly groomed trails, as the off piste terrain is much firmer underfoot. Now the morning sun is starting to warm up the snow you should find it much easier to keep an edge off the groomed trails around lunch to mid-afternoon. I did speak with our grooming fleets at both base areas and all standard trails were groomed last night. The only black diamond today with corduroy freshly laid, is Eisfallen, located off the Armstrong Express chair at Alpental.

 

Hoping everyone is as excited as I am to ski under the Silver Fir lights for the first time this Friday night! If you can't make it for the historic first night session, they will be shining brightly all weekend for the holiday! Drive safely and see on the mountain, soon! - T.N.T.
