2 Meter Snowbase and Counting

How is the snowpack shaping up?

The numbers are in, and the snowpack is shaping up to be one of the strongest in recent memory. Following a precip-heavy November, a cold and snowy start to December has pushed our snow depths to levels usually reserved for late January.

The Numbers (as of Dec 10, 2025):

• Ripley Creek Treeline Base: 238cm [94″] @ 1,028m in elevation [3,372′].
• Bell 2 Treeline Base: 189cm [74″] @ 1,065m in elevation [3,494′].
• Storm Totals (Dec 3–10): We saw 152cm [60″] of new snow land west of Stewart and 75cm [30″] near Bell 2 in just seven days.

With our first groups arriving January 9, the stage is set for a deep start to the 2026 season.

Where Can I get the latest forecast?

In December our snowbase readings are updated once per week, with regular daily ski reporting starting on January 9th. Check out the latest forecast [here].
