# Heavenly Mountain Resort Snow Report – NYE Edition
If you're thinking about ringing in the New Year at Heavenly Mountain Resort, here's what you need to know before you head up to Lake Tahoe.
Right now, the mountain is sitting at 45 centimeters (about 18 inches) at the summit and 25 centimeters (roughly 10 inches) at the base, with the snow quality described as "gripping" – which is exactly what you want under your skis. The last significant snowfall hit on December 26, so conditions are still fairly fresh, though the resort is only running about 10 percent of its terrain with 9 of its 27 lifts spinning. It's a limited operation right now, but that's pretty typical for late December when the season is still ramping up.
As for what fell recently, there hasn't been any new snow in the last 48 hours, so don't expect a powder day on NYE. Current conditions show temperatures hovering around 38°F at the base and 35°F at the summit with sunny skies, though light rain has been moving through at lower elevations.
Here's where things get interesting for the coming week. The forecast shows some serious snow potential rolling in, particularly starting January 3rd and extending through the following days. You're looking at around 15 centimeters (6 inches) expected on the 3rd, followed by 34 centimeters (about 13 inches) on the 4th and another 19 centimeters (7-8 inches) on the 5th. Over the next seven days, the mountain could see approximately 28 centimeters (11 inches) of new snow, which would be a significant refresh.
For those tracking seasonal totals, Heavenly has picked up 33 inches so far this season. Looking at the longer-term picture, the resort historically receives around 257 inches of snow annually, so there's plenty of season left to build the base.
The mountain is scheduled to run through April 12, 2026, so if conditions improve after that incoming snow, you'll have plenty of opportunities to get back out there. Just remember that operations are still limited at the moment – check their latest update before you head up, especially if you're planning a specific run or terrain. Stay stoked and stay safe out there!
