Snow & weather
Loading the latest forecast…
Sources & forecast assumptions
SnowSays publishes the shared forecast used here and on SnowSays resort pages. Weather icons, temperature and wind come from MET Norway for the selected mapped elevation. Symbols describe representative conditions in each period; conditions can vary. Temperature ranges and wind maxima use available model samples. All times are local to the resort.
New snow comes from Environment and Climate Change Canada at the same selected approximate lift elevation. Each snow amount covers exactly the start and end shown in its column. Short periods use complete HRDPS hourly data. Longer periods use matching HRDPS, REPS or GEPS windows; ensemble values are medians with 10th–90th percentile ranges. These ranges describe uncalibrated model spread. Snow is estimated at a fixed 10:1 snow-to-liquid ratio. Missing hours, unmatched periods and failed quality checks remain unavailable.
When ECCC predicts precipitation, that precipitation type takes priority over the general MET sky symbol. Snow on the ground requires a verified resort report. The 48-hour view shows the next 48 hours; the seven-day view uses seven consecutive forecast periods. Lift coordinates: OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL); elevations: Natural Resources Canada. No altitude correction or measured local accuracy is claimed.

Terrain at a glance
What the mountain
is like.
Long groomed runs dominate the useful middle ground, while upper and outer areas give experts more to explore.
Green, blue, black and double-black ratings are relative to this mountain, not a promise that the same symbol feels identical elsewhere. Translate the signs →
Directory figures help orient the map but are not the official operational count. Use the resort’s own current trail map and status.
Official piste / trail map
Use the map
the mountain publishes.
The resort’s own map is the clearest source for named runs, lift connections, boundary markings and current mountain terminology. It opens from the official source, so Canada Ski Hols does not edit or re-host a copyrighted copy.
