Snow Sure Score
67
Good

Deep base with more snow on the way.

Grand Targhee Resort's Snow Sure Score of 67/100 indicates good skiing conditions, bolstered by a substantial current snow depth of 173cm at the summit and recent snowfall of 38.36cm over the past week. Although the forecast predicts an average of 44.8cm over the next 14 days, which contributes positively, the historic score reflects some variability in seasonal consistency. Visitors can expect a solid base with fresh powder, making for enjoyable skiing, though they should remain aware of potential fluctuations in conditions as the season progresses.

Depth: 27.8/30Recent: 14.2/25Forecast: 15/25Historic: 10/20

Heavy snowfall is ongoing today with strong winds, creating challenging conditions and rapidly accumulating fresh snow across the resort. Significant new snow is expected to continue through midweek, with daily snowfalls remaining substantial and temperatures staying well below freezing. Snow showers and occasional heavy bursts will persist, especially through Wednesday, ensuring excellent powder conditions but also increasing avalanche risk and reducing visibility at times. Winds will remain brisk, particularly on exposed slopes, so guests and staff should prepare for cold, windy weather and monitor lift operations. Calmer, colder, and drier weather is forecast to return by the end of the week, allowing for improved access and excellent skiing on a deep, refreshed snowpack.
