10:00 AM Conditions Update | Derek Young
It is currently 10 am and 15 degrees with winds of 0-5 miles per hour out of the north. We are underway under bright, blue skies and cold temperatures. Overnight, our grooming team has worked the mountain and you’ll find crisp, smooth surface conditions with a soft, comfortable layer of powder and packed powder underneath. In the trees and bowls, you’ll find pillowy powder and continued untracked opportunities – a classic Blacktail phenomenon. UV lenses, sunscreen, and hydrate – this is a great day to get your laps in and smile all day long. Reporter’s choice today are Widow Maker and Damnation.
Good Morning Snow Riders,
This is Jessi with your Blacktail Mountain Report for Saturday, February 21st. It is currently 9 degrees with winds of 0-5 miles per hour and visibility is unlimited. Groomers are reporting a skiff of new snow overnight and a settled base of 36 inches. We will be sliding today on packed powder and machine groomed runs with the Magic Carpet, Thunderhead, and Olympic lifts in operation.
We continue to ski on the top half of the mountain, Thunderhead skiers and riders will load at the midway station. Please obey all ropelines and closures they are in place for your safety. We continue to assess the lower mountain as conditions improve.
It’s been a beautiful week on the mountain, come enjoy some turns this weekend!
I’ll see you on the slopes!
