9:30 a.m. update:

It's a chilly morning! It could definitely be worth it to bring an extra layer or liner up today. Groomers up top have nice firm, crisp corduroy and should stay in great shape throughout the day! Visibility up top is a little obscured but increases quickly as you ski off any side.

Lower on the mountain, around Chair 2, is looking very promising today with high-quality snow and good visibility. I'm headed for a hot chocolate and to warm up the digits, and then I'll be headed that way!

6 a.m. report:

Good morning, snow-loving friends!

Our settled base depth is 71 inches and we received no new snow overnight. Temperatures dipped to a low of 12 degrees, and the high today will be 20 degrees on the summit. We are expecting light southwest winds and mostly cloudy skies, with a small possibility of the sun peeking out later today. Currently, we have high clouds that are just skimming the summit.

Chair 2 opened up yesterday and the terrain over there is skiing great. The snow saw a little less traffic in the past two weeks than other areas on the mountain, coverage is great, and groomers a quick and carveable. Mountainwide, cooler temps have kept the snow dry and fresh, and the bit of snow we had in the tail end of last week went a long way for our snow quality.

As our snowpack continues to grow, we want to remind everyone to keep an eye out for tree wells. Keep a wide berth around trees, keep your buddies in sight, and consider carrying a whistle.

Tomorrow night we have our first race in the Wednesday Night Skimo League January series! Come race your friends and grab a beer in the village afterward!

The Lady Power Park Hour on Saturday, Jan. 18, is a noncompetitive slopestyle event here at Whitefish Mountain Resort. This will be open to all skill levels, from first-timers to those with years of experience. Come meet your fellow lady shredders, build community and gain some new confidence in the park!

Also on the 18th, we'll be holding our January Jam Freestyle Contest, a youth-focused terrain park event that prioritizes progression and camaraderie to introduce young rippers to freestyle skiing and riding.

Lastly, on behalf of everyone who enjoys skiing and riding our awesome mountain, I would like to remind you it is your responsibility to ride safely and in your control. Know your Skier Responsibility Code! We want all our guests from a variety of walks of life to enjoy this treasured mountain. Please be respectful to those around you and help avoid collisions and injuries. If you are straight-lining or bombing down the ski run in a manner in which you can’t stop to avoid people or objects, you are violating the code and subject to disciplinary action. Ski within your ability and make good choices.

We hope you have a terrific Tuesday! Stay stoked and I’ll see ya on the slopes.

The snow report is a subjective assessment of terrain and weather conditions. Snowfall and snow depths are measured at the summit and base areas around 6 a.m. each day. Actual depths may vary across the mountain and change throughout the day. Always check with ski patrol if you need more information about skiing conditions.
