Waterville Valley, NH, Report: Fresh Corduroy on Opening Weekend Report from Sunday, December 1 After about a foot of snow blanketed the White Mountains of New Hampshire on Thanksgiving, skiers and riders were getting in the mood to start their ski seasons. They didn’t have many resorts to choose from. Bretton Woods, Cannon, and Waterville Valley had all recently opened, and each had about an equal amount of open […] Conditions Report Jake Benton | December 2, 2024 0 Comments

Deer Valley, UT, Report: Solid Top to Bottom Skiing on Season Pass Holder Opening Day Report from November 29, 2024 I was honored to ski Deer Valley on their season pass appreciation day this past Friday. They hooked up a free lunch (entree, dessert, fountain drink), and the skiing started at noon. I showed up at about noon, and almost no one was around. I rode up the Carpenter chairlift and then slid down to […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | December 1, 2024 1 Comment

Wasatch Mountain, UT, Report: Cardiff Bowl on a Sunny November Powder Day Report from November 28, 2024 Yesterday we went for a short walk and a short ski. Only a few select zones up high are skiing deep enough to avoid turning your skis into cheesegraters. We cruised up and skied a mellow classic: Cardiff Bowl. Martin & I followed Maxwell and Alex up there and watched them drop in. Sunny, powdery, […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | November 29, 2024 0 Comments
Alta, UT, Report: The First Deep Blower Powder Day of the Season Report from November 27, 2024 I skied Alta until 4 pm on Tuesday. The big storm day that wasn’t a big storm day. I was skeptical of the forecast and expected it to fizzle, but I wasn’t sure, and the Alta magic should never be underestimated. Same video as above but with some 3rd person video of pow skiing, heavy […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | November 28, 2024 0 Comments
Hoodoo, OR, Backcountry Report: Thankful for a Deep Base Report from Thursday, November 28, 2024 Hoodoo Ski Area, Oregon, opens tomorrow, but we took some early Thanksgiving turns. Hoodoo boasts about being “steep, deep, and cheap,” but last season was especially brutal at the low-elevation resort. Fortunately, this year, the resort appears to be in far better shape— there was consistently 30+ inches throughout the resort. Our first lap […] Conditions Report Nicky Blumm | November 28, 2024 0 Comments
Wolf Creek Ski Area, CO, Conditions Report: Strong Early Season Conditions as the 85th Season Ramps Up Report from November 24, 2024 Wolf Creek Ski Area, Colorado, opened a month ago as the first major ski resort in North America. Wolf Creek opened 100% of its terrain by mid-November, the earliest ski area in the country to claim that feat, thanks to its usual early-season snow. So it was high time to pay a visit, especially after […] Conditions Report Brett Ploss | November 26, 2024 0 Comments
