Snow Reports
Who could ask for a better start to the season at Great Northern!! We received 180cm (6 feet) of fresh snow the week before Christmas, then a few beautiful blue bird day. With more snow in the forecast, the start of a New Year, 2020 Ski Season promises to be what every Powder Hound dreams of.
Great Northern still has some early season openings. Check under “Book Now” for availability.
In less then one week the first guests will be arriving at Great Northern Snowcat Skiing, and they are in for a big treat.
Mother Nature has opened the taps on full and won’t be shutting them off for a couple more days.
We still have a few seats left. Check the availability under “book now”.

It’s back! That’s right, sweet powder skiing has returned after a brief hiatus, and last week’s challenging conditions have quickly faded into memory. With fresh snow the past few days — of the light, dry and delicious variety — we’re laying down sweet fast turns throughout the vast mountain playground that surrounds us, and it’s been getting better every day. Life is good up here — come join us! We’ll be happy to show you around…
This just in: skiing is good! Really, really, ridiculously good, in fact, especially when you pile 70 cm of sweet Selkirk powder over a 48 hour period on the legendary tree lines and pillows that fill our back yard!! With light dry snow and an average temperature of -7 C, you have the recipe for day after day of all-time conditions. Overhead face shots put the icing on the cake, and when you toss it all together…nothing short of powder perfection.
