The mountain is open through May 11th, so the season is not over!

For this week and the upcoming weekend, I expect spring-like conditions with firm snow in the morning and softer snow during the midday and afternoon. Each day's high temperature should be in the low 40s, and each day will also bring a chance for midday and afternoon showers. Monday will likely be the only day with gusty winds, and wind speeds should be normal for the rest of the week.

For next week, a storm is possible sometime between Monday, April 28, and Wednesday, April 30. This storm is unlikely to be as strong as the last one (which dropped 14 inches of snow from April 17-19), though it could bring cool air, new snow, and soft-ish turns, so I'll keep an eye on it.
