Mt. Bachelor: February 25

Finally! After a nearly 4 week dry spell we are getting some new snow. It snowed consistently all week and Bachelor was averaging around 4-5 inches a day. Alot of it is wind packed, but down in the trees is really quite good. The crowds showed up over the weekend, but fresh lines could still be had out past Northwest Express. Expect a great week of crowdless skiing as the storms continue to roll through. Snow is expected daily through next weekend.

Horse Ridge Saturday February 17

Activity: Trail Run
Weather: 65 sunny
Trail conditions: Excellent

Global warming continues to keep the trails open and a week of dry weather and warm temps has resulted in all snow, ice, and mud drying up at the Ridge. Conditions are awesome.

Horse Ridge Monday February 12

Activity: Trail Run
Weather: 46 partly cloudy
Trail conditions: fair to good

All the snow and ice is gone but this weekends rain has left a little mud behind. Most of the trail below fenceline is dry and in good condition. Above fenceline expect varying amounts of mud. Rideable, but not good for running past fenceline. The Ridge dries out fast, so a few more warm dry days should improve conditions up high.
