Forecast

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

• Saturday will be a gorgeous day with sunny skies and a high temperature in the 40s.
  
  
• Sunday will be mixed with dry weather in the morning and then cloudy and showery weather during the afternoon and evening, with perhaps a dusting to a few inches of snow.
  
  
• Monday could be drier in the morning, then the next wave of snow will move across Colorado on Monday afternoon and evening. This wave should deliver 1-4 inches of accumulation.
  
  
• Tuesday should start with the snow that fell on Monday evening, and after a potentially dry morning, the next wave of snow should fall from midday Tuesday through Tuesday night. Tuesday's last chair could offer some new snow.
  
  
• Wednesday morning may offer the best conditions as the base could be somewhat soft due to snowfall on previous days, and the additional 1-4 inches of snow on Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night will create some powder on top of the softer base.
  
  
• Total snowfall from Sunday afternoon to Wednesday will likely be in the 4-8 inch range.
  
  
• Then, Thursday through Sunday, May 11 (closing day), should offer typical spring conditions with highs in the 40s and afternoon showers possible each day.
