Snow Conditions in USA (13 February 2012)
It was quite a snowy weekend across America, with over 25cm falling in some areas. Resorts in Utah did the best, with Alta (188cm) and Snowbird (175cm) both receiving around 20cm. This significantly improved the skiing at each resort and powder can be found all over the mountain. Both areas are linked so there’s plenty of great powder to be found.
Colorado received fresh snow too. The Ski Club Leader based in Vail (91cm) said the open runs are in brilliant condition and patches of fresh powder can be found off piste. It’s a similar story at nearby Breckenridge (132cm).
There was snow at Alyeska (127/391cm). 25cm fell on Saturday 11th February. The base depth is excellent so skiing is good all over the mountain. More fresh snow is likely to fall during this week.
