More Snow This Weekend…….

We will see light amounts of snow on the mountain Saturday night through Sunday night above the base. Then Sunday night the cold front approaches and pushes through Tahoe by Monday morning. Starting Tuesday there is a ridge off the coast blocking storms and bringing nice weather for a few days. The location of the ridge at 140w would mean we will get a series of cold but smaller storms....

Untrackedguides.com Great Northern Powder Guides Trip

Notice to anyone considering the most epic skiing trip of all time: look no further than northwest Montana. The shuttle takes about 20 minutes to get to the GNPG base of operations. Everybody there was friendly and down to business, we didn’t waste much time in the office. It took us less than a half hour to leave the base and arrive at our first skiing site. Over half the terrain we skied on during our two days had yet to be skied this year....

Wildcat indy, rocket air backie, layout....

Base Building Snow……

We could pick up another 3-6 inches tonight and 3-6 more tomorrow. We get a break on Friday & Saturday before the next storm moves in on Saturday night. This next storm is tapping subtropical moisture from all the way down near Hawaii. This will make this storm warmer than the current storm with higher snow levels. That means you will want to ride the mid-mountain chairs this weekend to stay in the fresh snow....
