CURRENT UPDATE: Monday Oct. 31
YES, WE RECEIVED A LOAD OF SNOW SUNDAY NIGHT! WE HAVE 14 NEW AT HEATHER MEADOWS WHICH BRINGS THE BASE AT THE UPPER AREA TO A WHOPPING 24 INCHES . . . .BEFORE NOVEMBER 1ST!

MOUNTAIN FORECASTS ARE CALLING FOR THE FREEZING LEVEL TO RISE UP TO ABOUT 6OOO FEET TODAY – SO IT IS LIKELY WE WILL LOOSE A LITTLE BASE – HOWEVER! THE FREEZING LEVEL IS THEN EXPECTED TO DROP STARTING LATE TUESDAY, WITH IT DROPPING TO 3000 ( WHICH IS BELOW WHITE SALMON) BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND STAYING DOWN AT A CHILLY 3000 THROUGH THE WHOLE WEEKEND – WITH MORE SNOW EXPECTED!

WE ARE CERTAINLY STARTING TO BUILD A SIGNIFICANT BASE, BUT WILL STILL NEED MORE SNOW WITH A MORE LONG TERM COLD FORECAST. HOWEVER, WE ARE WELL ON THE WAY AND FINAL PREPARATIONS ARE HAPPENING NOW SO THAT WE CAN BE READY TO ROLL AS SOON WE ARE ABLE TO BUILD A LITTLE MORE ON THIS FAVORABLE WEATHER PATTERN!

A REMINDER THAT MONDAY OCT. 31 IS THE LAST DAY OF PRESEASON DISCOUNTED SEASON PASS RATES. YOU CAN ORDER ONLINE AT MT. BAKER.US AND GET THE DISCOUNTED RATE – OR OUR BUSINESS OFFICE IN BELLINGHAM WILL BE OPEN MONDAY UNTIL 6:00PM. CALL 734-6771 FOR MORE INFO. FOR THOSE OF YOU WITH A SEASON PASS FROM LAST SEASON, THE PRESEASON RATE HAS BEEN EXTENDED UNTIL DECEMBER 9TH FOR YOU.

While last winter in the Pacific Northwest had it’s challenges, to help put it in perspective, Mammoth Mountain raved about a “ski area record snowfall year,” but they ended up receiving 491 inches in the same time period – just 12% more than Baker.
