Forecast today: Mainly fair
Recent investment however has seen the resort build its first fast chairlift and invest in snowmaking, ensuring the snow conditions remain reliable, despite the resort’s southerly location in the Rio Grande valley.
There’s a good selection of long green and blue runs, as well as a few groomed blacks, but much of the attraction here is the steep terrain accessed off Kachina Peak and the main ridgeline that runs from north to south above the ski area. You’ll have to be prepared to hike up, but the chutes, bowls and tree runs are well worth the effort! At the foot of the mountain there’s a decent range of condo accommodation and a number of restaurants and bars, however the resort is usually pretty quiet at night.
Alternatively you can stay down in the valley, but for maximum convenience we’d recommend staying up on the hill. Tie in a trip here with a visit to Angel Fire resort, or the Colorado resorts of the San Juan Mountains – such as Telluride, Purgatory or Silverton.

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.
