Forecast today: Snow grains
with the lower, tree-lined slopes of the volcano favouring beginners and intermediates, whilst the upper mountain is home to steeper terrain, deeper powder and on clear days, some incredible views over the rest of Oregon.
New lifts have made a big difference to speed up access and the mountain is now home to one of the USA’s top freestyle setups, which continues to grow and improve year on year.
Most visitors stay down in the town of Bend, a 35km drive away from the ski area. It’s a booming place, with a vibrant food and drink scene, dominated by micro-breweries that regularly host après ski sessions, beer festivals and spring BBQs. There’s also lots to do away from the slopes, including Smith Rock State Park, famous worldwide for its incredible rock climbing. Fly to Portland for the quickest access.

Updated 04/03
A brief flurry of cold and snowy weather moves in over the PNW and proceeds inland over the rest of the Left Coast: around 10-15cm will progress over the PNW on Wednesday, before arriving over the Tetons and Frontiers into Thursday and Friday. This front will bring with it a steady drop in temperatures, helping top up slopes at upper elevations.
Things have now flipped on its head over in New England, where the phenomenal season for the Ice Coast has given way mild, spring-like conditions. Sun will give way to unsettled conditions into this weekend, with flurries of snowfall giving way to rain as the freezing line soars.
