Daily Ski Conditions for Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyoming

Hey powder chasers, Jackson Hole is firing on all cylinders right now, turning the Tetons into a shredder's paradise after a massive snowy blast kicked off 2026! That early-season slump? Forgotten, thanks to nearly four feet of fresh dumping from January 1st to the 10th, with storms layering on 7 inches here, 7 more there, peaking at 9 inches up top on the 8th, and a silky 3-inch capper on the 10th. Ski it like it's twice as deep—pure magic.

Summit snowpack sits at a burly **217 inches** season total, mid-mountain at **149 inches** (103% of average), while base clocks in around **9 inches**. All **13 lifts** are spinning, including Big Red Aerial Tram (9am-3:30pm) and Bridger Gondola (9am-4pm), unlocking **88% of terrain** with 114/130 trails open—50% expert steeps, 40% intermediate corduroy, 10% beginner bliss across 2,500 acres and 4,139 feet of vert. Pistes are smooth and filled out, with Lower Faces and Hobacks now rideable end-to-end; off-piste is prime with wind-packed fields and dry powder stashes, but watch for variable crust in sun-exposed spots.

Today's vibe? Crisp and clear, highs around **28°F** at base (14°F lows in the valley), below freezing everywhere with SE breezes—perfect for carving without slush. Looking ahead, the next week stays cold and dry: expect 33°F highs Sunday-Monday, dipping to 29°F by Friday, no new snow till possibly the 27th, keeping that base preserved for epic groomers and untracked lines.

Pro tip: Capacity's limited, so snag lift tickets early—Ikon and passholders need reservations. Golden Ticket deal gives 50% off for any 2025-26 season passholders through Jan 16. New Stilson paved parking is free and open. Avalanche mitigation rules lift hours (*conditions permitting), and weekends kick off earlier at 8:30am for key gondolas. Whether you're charging Corbet's or lapping blues, Jackson's delivering that big-mountain buzz—strap in and send it!.
