Forecast today: Generally clear
There’s everything from gentle greens and long, well-groomed blues to some seriously steep and challenging hike-to terrain, but most people come here for the powder. It is also a great place to get back your ski legs before embarking on a heliskiing trip in the remote Chugach Mountains.
The resort’s location, a short drive from Anchorage, makes it very accessible and as a result crowds can build a little at the weekend or on a powder day – but this does mean that the slopes are usually nice and quiet in the week.
Either stay in Anchorage or at the smart hotel complex at the foot of the mountain.

The Left Coast finally gets some good snowfall this week as an atmospheric river – a narrow, dense flow of low pressure – channels precipitation over the Western USA. The PNW will see cool temperatures and a useful freshener of snowfall over Tuesday and Wednesday, as totals increase the further south you move; the Sierras will see around 50cm of snowfall over Tuesday alone, tailing off into Wednesday as temperatures remain cold. This low pressure will then make its way over the Frontier and Teton ranges, bringing steady snowfall across Wednesday and Thursday helping (finally) build a snowpack!
Sun breaks through as the weekend arrives, helping increase the temperatures from bitterly cold to just cold. Things then remain dry.
Over the Ice Coast, temperatures gradually drop over the course of this week as flurries of snowfall sweep the region. Nice snow is then coming on Friday with around 20cm down, before temperatures drop into the weekend as cloud clears to give fine and dry nights.
