Good Morning Snow Riders,
This is Jessi with your Blacktail Mountain Report for Saturday, January 24th. It is currently 5 degrees with winds of 0-5 miles per hour out of the west and visibility is unlimited. Groomers are reporting no new snow and a settled base of 23 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. Early season conditions do exist, please obey all ropelines and closures they are in place for your safety.
The slopes are holding really well, keep doing that snow dance! It looks like it’s going to be another Blue Bird Day. Blacktail is open Wednesday through Sunday with lifts spinning from 9 am until 4 pm.
I’ll see you on the slopes!
