* WHAT...Snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 6 to 9 inches 
of snow above 7500 feet. 1 to 4 inches of snow is possible between

How fitting for a season that has been littered with big, frequent, consistent snowfalls.

This was our very favorite season ever at Squaw in the 18 consecutive seasons we’ve spent here.

This has been Squaw’s 3rd snowiest winter so far with 717″ of snowfall thus far this season.

We had 6 legit powder days in the past week that got absolutely rowdy.

Rowdy Powder Day Evidence from May 19th & 20th:
