It just wonโ€™t stop snowing at Eaglecrest Ski Area, AK.ย The resort is on a 17-day streak that has delivered 59โ€ณ of fresh snow in the last week alone, including a 12โ€ณ powder day at the weekend, 20โ€ณ in the last 48 hours, and another 6โ€ณ this morning.

The resort has seen an impressive 303โ€ณ of fresh snow this season and has a 152โ€ณ base.

Yesterday felt like a bottomless pow day with snow showers throughout, and the forecast for the rest of the week looks just as promising. This morningโ€™s opening was delayedย due to continued avalanche control work, and uphill access was closed while ski patrol performed avalanche mitigation work.

Pack your low-light lenses and snorkels for a deep week ahead.

In 2020, Eaglecrest experienced an unbelievable 54-day snowfall streak that dumped 20 feet of fresh snow.ย We can hope for the same again, right?
