Season Info

The winter season typically extends from July through October, with the eastern aspect often capturing excellent snow from both northerly and southerly weather systems. The volcanic terrain requires minimal snow coverage to create good skiing conditions, while the high altitude helps preserve snow quality. The field's location away from prevailing winds frequently offers skiing opportunities when other areas are impacted by strong weather.
