Squaw has been skiing great the past two weeks. ย Spring skiing everyday. ย They even groomed Headwall Face (we’ve never seen this before and it was epic) last Wed, Thurs, Fri and this Tues.

Groomers have beenย soft and ready to go at 9am off Headwall, Siberia, Emigrant, Granite Chief.

KT-22 has been unreal in the afternoons: ย Chute 75, Rock Garden, West Face, Oly Lady Chairline, Red Dog Ridge, Nose to Easy Fingers. ย KT has been great from noon to 4pm.

Unfortunately, this is all coming to an end… ย for a while at at least. ย NOAA is forecasting rain the next 5 days…. ย We might get some snow way up high above 8,000-feet, but it’s gonna be all bad down low…

Oh, and a Squaw employee told us that Silverado is closed for the year.
