North America’s ski season had its worst start in recent memory this year. But after a series of very wintry weather events, the season is decidedly back in action.
But is having decidedly wintry conditions a universally positive thing? Let's check in on the East Coast, Northern US Rockies, Lake Tahoe, Pacific Northwest, Inland Northwest, Canadian Rockies, Colorado, and Utah regions.

Hey all, quick note: this video was supposed to go up yesterday, but our on-the-road internet said no to that 😑🐌 A few additional developments have occurred in the past 24 hours: - Certain parts of the East Coast have already seen the weekend snow start to roll through. - Colorado and Utah are now on track to see more snow at the end of next week, as should the Northern US Rockies. - Lake Tahoe is likely to see a stop in storms for a few days, with precipitation picking back up early next week. - Jackson Hole decided to cancel Kings and Queens of Corbet’s due to the low snowpack 😭 - Also, Solitude opened Honeycomb Canyon on Wednesday, not yesterday :) Thanks for understanding and enjoy the video!

@jimrat92 4 месяца назад

Silverlining, the canceling kings and queens allowed me to finally drop Corbetts after 3 seasons of trying cause they opened it to the public instead lol.

@speedyboi2576 4 месяца назад

its quite a shame that Jackson Hole decided to cancel Kings and Queens of Corbet's this year. was really looking forward to seeing those replays

In BC (Whistler etc) it’s about to get horrible again. Huge rain storms rolling through with high temps.

This is probably the worst ski season that the lower mainland of BC has ever seen. Literally only like a week of actual skiable weather this year.

@@speedyboi2576 I have heard nothing but great things about Utah skiing. I am glad you like it! I love Monarch. Its a great little mountain with a lot of good tree skiing, rocks, hike-to terrain, etc. PLUS I get free days at a TON of great mountains like A-basin, Loveland, Copper, Purg and lots more. Cheers!

This is NOT the same for the Vancouver area. Most ski resorts probably gotten worse with the pouring rain on the mountains.

@mtadams2009 4 месяца назад

As a season pass pass holder at Killington it’s not been so much an issue of lack of snow but the crazy warming and rain cycles. The rain around Christmas was brutal. The K has done a great job and they continue to blow snow relentlessly. There is plenty of snow in that woods but the snow is hard pack. I am headed out to Colorado in late February and I hope things get better. I am not even checking snow reports. I will wait until the day I leave to decide which skies I bring.

How is A-basin going? I saw that their base snowpack has improved a lot, but their summit snow depth is still a bit low compared to recent years, do you think the East wall will open this year? Especially given that during a lot of these storms there were strong westerly winds and despite its name the East wall is predominantly west facing.

@PeakRankings 4 месяца назад

Colorado usually sees a ton of late season storms, so we’d bet it will!

@LongsYt 4 месяца назад

East wall will open this year. I know it doesn't seem like it now, but Arapahoe Basin ski patrol is very good at getting things open.

@ryanevans2655 4 месяца назад

Kind of a glimpse into what climate models tell us winters are likely to increasingly look like in latter decades of the 21st century- big snow dumps, in some places bigger than past norms, but interspersed with longer & warmer warm periods than 20th century precedent, and increasing winter rains at elevations & latitudes previously not rain-prone. (At least that’s how I’ve understood models and studies on climate impacts to skiing regions.)

If North America includes ski hills along either of the coasts or east of Loveland, it is still pretty closer to 0 than 100. The Porkies, a hill known for getting 15 or 20 feet of lake effect, is not spinning lifts.
