  • Vail's Game Creek Bowl Unleashed: 1500 Acres, 32 Lifts, and Perfect Carving Conditions
    Jan 14 2026
    Ski Report for Vail, Colorado

    Daily Ski Conditions for Vail, Colorado

    Hey skier, Vail's calling your name with over 1,500 skiable acres open and Game Creek Bowl freshly unleashed for epic lines! Right now, the base sits at a solid 30 inches, perfect for carving those legendary groomers across 278 runs, though summit depths aren't specified yet—think consistent coverage from recent storms.

    No fresh powder in the last 24 or 48 hours, but the season total clocks in at 67 inches since October, keeping things plush. With 32 lifts spinning from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM (earlier reports noted 18 of 33, but ops are ramping up strong), you've got frontside bliss and backbowl potential waiting.

    Weather's playing nice today with cloudy skies, temps maxing around 40°F at the base and dropping chillier up high—bundle for those mid-mountain chills. Piste conditions are prime for speed demons, while off-piste demands avalanche smarts; check risks before ducking ropes.

    Looking ahead, it's mostly clear skies and dry for the next five days: expect highs of 39°F/25°F min Thursday, 33°F/20°F Friday, 35°F/19°F Saturday, 40°F/21°F Sunday, and 34°F/21°F Monday. No big dumps soon—next flakes whisper around Jan 22, so score those hero snow groomers while they're golden.

    Pro tip: Grab the My Epic App for live cams, lift lines, and terrain stats to dodge crowds. Lift tickets start at $199 if you book early, and over 11,570 feet of vert means endless vert today. Shred safe, locals love sending it here—Vail's firing!

  • Vail's Thin Base Getting Thicker: Snowmaking Magic and Bluebird Conditions Ahead
    Jan 13 2026
    Ski Report for Vail, Colorado

    Daily Ski Conditions for Vail, Colorado

    Hey shredders, Vail's calling your name with that classic Colorado powder vibe, but right now it's holding steady on a thinner base while the crew pumps out fresh artificial snow to keep the stoke alive. At the base (around 8,000 feet), you've got 40 cm of cover, beefing up to 76 cm at the summit (11,500+ feet)—enough for solid carving if you stick to the groomers. No new natural fluff in the last 24 or 48 hours since that tease on January 9, but the snowmaking team's on it, turning variable early-season conditions into rideable terrain.

    Half the mountain's fired up with 17 of 34 lifts spinning and 126 km of 234 km slopes open (that's 54%), including the valley run for those sweet laps back to the village. Pistes are variable with marked obstacles everywhere—slow down, buddy up, and refresh on the Responsibility Code as the snowpack builds. Off-piste? Stay cautious; avalanche risks are real, gear up, and check local reports before venturing out.

    Today's weather is mostly sunny with temps hitting a comfy high near 39°F (4°C) and dropping to 21°F (-6°C) overnight, light W winds keeping it chill but shreddable. Looking ahead, the next five days stay dry and mild: Wednesday highs around 40°F, Thursday 39°F, Friday cooling to 33°F with possible clouds, Saturday 34°F clearing up, and Sunday pushing 38°F—prime for bluebird turns, though no big dumps forecast until maybe later next week. Season total snowfall? Still ramping from the November 14 opener, but expect more as we chase that 19 April close.

    Pro tip from a local: Hit the My Epic app for live cams, lift lines, and alerts—lifts are at 50% so crowds should be mellow. Valley run's open, but fun parks and halfpipe are closed for now. Dial Ski Patrol at 970-754-1911 if things get gnarly. Pack layers, ease into it, and let's make some turns—Vail's building epic memories one groomer at a time!

  • Vail's Calling: Carve, Pow, and Dial In Your Skills for Epic Colorado Runs
    Jan 12 2026
    Ski Report for Vail, Colorado

    Daily Ski Conditions for Vail, Colorado

    Hey shredders, Vail's calling your name with that classic Colorado vibe—think epic groomers begging for carves and variable snowpack that's still building for prime pow stashes. Right now, the base is solid at mid-mountain stakes, season total hitting 67 inches from Oct 1 through yesterday, way below the usual 243-inch beast mode but with fresh potential brewing. No big dumps in the last 24 or 48 hours, but keep eyes peeled—very light new snow teased in the next week.

    Summit highs are chilling around 26-29°F today, base pushing 36-42°F with clear skies turning cloudy, freeze-thaw action keeping things grippy. Pistes mix fresh powder vibes to firm icy spots post-warm spells, while off-piste swings wild with wind crust or lingering stashes in shaded nooks—check avy risk and gear up before ducking ropes. Only a handful of lifts (0/33) and trails (138/277) spinning as snow builds, so expect marked obstacles, crowds easing you back into rhythm—slow down, buddy up, and dial the Responsibility Code.

    Peep the 5-day outlook: Clear and mild tomorrow (41°F max, 20°F min), sunny spells Tuesday-Wednesday (up to 42°F), then cooling Thursday (38°F) before Friday's new snow drops with 22°F highs—perfect for cold smokes if it sticks. Temps stay valley-friendly, no major storms yet, but mountain magic shifts fast.

    Pro tip from locals: Hit My Epic app for live cams, lift lines, and alerts—Vail Patrol's at 970-754-1911 for emergencies. Safety first, then send it! Conditions variable, snowpack growing—prime time to refresh skills and score those hero lines. Who's packing the quiver?
