As of early April, the resort is closed for the day, with zero lifts spinning out of 33 and no trails open, though recent reports show a solid 30-35 inch base depth holding strong at elevations from the 8,120-foot base up to the 11,570-foot summit. No fresh powder in the last 24 or 48 hours—zero inches reported—but machine-groomed and packed powder surfaces kept things carveable until recently. Pistes were machine groomed with limited off-piste options, and the season total sits around 168 inches, well below Vail's epic 354-inch average. Weather's turning mild and dry right now, with temps pushing 60s Fahrenheit at mid-mountain, light winds, and clear skies—perfect for apres if you're base-bound. Looking ahead, brace for high-elevation flurries: expect under 1 cm tonight at summit, ramping to 2-6 cm Friday through Tuesday (April 10-15), with daytime highs in the 50s-60s°F dropping to chilly 20s-40s°F nights and snow lines dipping as low as 8,000 feet early next week. Winds 5-20 mph, precip chances 10-50%—could refresh the upper bowls! Locals tip: With the resort shuttered until potential late-season reopen (closes April 19), hit nearby Eagles Nest or check Vail Pass for backcountry vibes, but watch for frozen firmness and no-mud risk. Hydrate hard at altitude, families love the terrain parks when open, and those 3,450-foot vert drops deliver endless fun. Stoke levels high—grab your board and think spring slush carves next storm!
