Understanding the Snow Report

Snow Measurements

Our snow reports measure snowfall in centimeters over various time periods. Base depth indicates the snow depth at the base of the mountain, while summit depth shows snow accumulation at higher elevations. Imperial measurements in inches are also shown for convenience.

Weather Conditions

Current weather conditions affect snow quality. Cold temperatures with low wind typically preserve snow quality, while warm temperatures or rain can impact conditions negatively.

Data Sources

Rainbow Ski Area snow data is collected through a combination of official resort reports, on-mountain measurements, and weather forecasting services to provide the most accurate information possible.

When to Check

Snow reports are typically updated early morning and late afternoon. For the most current conditions, check back regularly, especially if a winter storm is approaching.
