Fresh snow overnight at Timberline Lodge is keeping conditions surprisingly good for early April. Around 3 inches of new snow fell in the last 24 hours, with snow depth holding near 70 inches at mid-mountain. Overnight temperatures stayed cold in the upper 20s, helping preserve a packed powder surface with a light refresh on top.

This morning is shaping up with soft turns and windbuff conditions, especially on upper mountain terrain. Winds have been moderate out of the west, so expect some wind-affected snow in exposed areas, but overall coverage remains solid. As temperatures rise through the day, conditions will transition into softer, slightly heavier snow on the lower mountain, while higher elevations should stay in better shape longer.

The best skiing window will be early to mid-morning before warming takes hold. With spring weather settling in this week, expect classic corn cycles ahead—firm mornings followed by soft, carveable snow by late morning and early afternoon.

If you’re heading up to Timberline, make it easy on yourself with fast, affordable rentals at Meadowlark Ski & Sports in Sandy. Skip the resort lines, get dialed in with quality gear, and spend more time on the mountain.

    Today is a bright and sunny day perfect for outdoor activities. The temperature is expected to reach around 31 degrees making it warm enough to enjoy the sunshine. A gentle north-northeast wind is blowing at 7 to 9 miles per hour bringing a refreshing feel to the air. Occasionally the wind may gust up to 20 miles per hour adding a bit of excitement to the day. It’s a great time to grab a friend head outside and soak up the beautiful weather! Today the snow conditions on the slopes offer a mix of textures for skiers and snowboarders. The groomed areas are mostly made up of frozen granular snow which feels firm underfoot but has a light layer of loose snow on top. This makes it a bit easier to glide along while still providing good control. In contrast the off-piste areas have a hard icy base that can be challenging especially with moguls that vary in size depending on where you are on the mountain. Overall it’s a day that will test your skills and provide a thrilling ride!
