Daily Ski Conditions for Heavenly Mountain Resort
Hey shredders, Heavenly Mountain Resort is dishing out that early-season stoke on the California side, with the Tram, Gunbarrel, Pastys, and Powderbowl lifts spinning from 9am to 4pm daily. Just 5 of 111 trails are open—think Patsys and Mombo for smooth groomers—but only 4% of the massive 4,800 acres is unlocked, perfect for warming up your legs without the crowds. Base depth sits at a solid 8-11 inches, with variable and hard-pack conditions keeping things grippy underfoot; no fresh powder in the last 24 or 48 hours, but season total is already 33 inches thanks to snowmaking on 74% of runs.
Summit snow depth hovers around 35-43 cm at 10,067 feet, base about 27-38 cm at 6,565 feet, so expect thinner cover up high but prime for carving those long descents like the 8.8km Sky Express to California Lodge run. Weather today? Clear skies with mild temps—around 42-56°F at mid-mountain, cooling to 36-39°F lows, light SW winds, and no snow in sight for the next 48 hours.
Looking ahead, keep boots ready: highs in the upper 30s to low 40s through next week, with a tease of 7cm new snow possible by Wed at summit levels, then freeze-thaw vibes and moderate rain chances later. No big dumps forecast soon, but stable cold could preserve what we've got. Off-piste? Closed for now—stick to patrolled terrain until more natural snow packs in; Mott Canyon awaits the brave once it opens.
Pro tip from the locals: Hit early for shortest lines, bundle for valley chill (28-39°F mins), and celebrate Heavenly's 70th season—the gondola's running sightseeing too. Conditions can shift fast with wind or sun, so peep the Epic App for live cams and status. Tahoe views from the ridge are unreal—grab your board and send it!
