Snow Reporter Comments: Mountain Report 5/2
7:00am Update: Happy Friday! Under a radiant sunrise, clear skies and warm temperatures await. Continued inversion has West Village base area reading 34°, while mid-mountain is looking very pleasant in the mid 40s. Thanks to the cooler temps down low, our 102” snowpack took a firm set around the base overnight and should pair well with the warm mid-mountain conditions to make for great skiing and riding. Today is expected to reach a high in the mid 50s with moderate winds.
