Aspen Snowmass Powder Paradise: 22 Inches and Bluebird Skies
Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description
Ski Report for Aspen Snowmass, Colorado
Daily Ski Conditions for Aspen Snowmass, Colorado
Aspen Snowmass is firing on all cylinders right now, powder hounds—winter's finally roared back after a lean spell, dumping a massive heap of snow across the four mountains. Think 22-23 inches at Aspen Mountain and Highlands over the last 48 hours as of February 20, with the whole resort tallying its biggest weekly total this season—feet of fresh to carve up. Season totals are stacking up nicely toward that reliable 300-inch average, and base/summit depths hover around 72 inches at spots like Snowmass, perfect for bombing groomers or hunting stashes.
Clear skies dominate today with base temps around 19-20°F and summit chilling at 7-9°F, light winds keeping it shreddable—pure bluebird bliss for sending it. Lifts and trails? All four peaks are wide open through mid-April (Snowmass to April 12, Aspen Mountain to 19), with grooming reports showing fresh corduroy for beginners to experts, terrain parks humming, and Highland Bowl roads packed after over two feet there—ropetows and powder smiles all day.
Pistes are primo: that new snow's settling into hero conditions, skiing like a dream despite statewide snowpack at 61% median. Off-piste? Variable with wind-sculpted crust possible, but cold snaps preserve powder pockets—check avy reports, as Colorado Avalanche Center warns of elevated backcountry danger this weekend with everyone itching to drop in.
Forecast looks epic: sunny highs near 34-46°F today into tomorrow, cooling to 28-38°F midweek with snow showers ramping up—50-100% chances Tuesday-Wednesday, possible inches and thunder, lows dipping to 11°F. More whiteout storms brewing, so pack the thermals and goggles.
Pro tip from locals: hit Snowmass for family vibes or Highlands Bowl for steeps, but watch for crowds chasing this turnaround. No major notices beyond avy caution—grab your pass and go make turns before the next dump buries it deeper!
