Today's conditions are very similar to yesterday's, except that today is windier. If you can brave the cold lift ride up, there is good skiing to be had! Low traffic today should keep trails from getting scraped off much.

The mountain is 100% open (including the tubing park) and snowmaking has mostly wrapped up for the season. It's cold out, but it's sunny and not very windy so it's very tolerable. Many glades and backcountry/side country areas are now skiable with care. The mountain is getting into mid-season shape, and there will likely be excellent skiing for the next few weeks.

Today's is definitely one of the best days so far this season! There are clear skies, no wind, good temps, and excellent skiing across the mountain, including many glades!

This storm has dropped about a foot so far and we're supposed to pick up a few more inches overnight! An already good base, combined with more snow at the end of the week will make this weekend one to remember! If you've ever wanted to try BMOM, now's the time!

Official storm total is 13", but there's probably more up high and in the woods!

Black will now be open 9-4 every Thursday with $25 tickets!

The goods are in the woods today! The entire mountain is in excellent shape and all glades are in play! It has been busy, and lines reached about 5 minutes long, but that's still nothing compared to surrounding areas.

Another day of outstanding conditions across the mountain! Today is also less crowded than yesterday and there are little to no lift lines. There is now a well established bootpack up the Moxie and it's a great time to ski the sidecountry!

Hey Sam, got up to Black tonight! My Dad and I really liked it, even if it was for a couple runs or so. Definitely something we would do again! The lodge in particular was also (in my Dad's opinion) "Better than the lodge at South Ridge" LOL! Wonderful area you ski at, hope you are having a great winter.

Here's some photos from our little trip tonight:

Glad you got to check it out! Looks like it wasn't as busy as Thursday nights sometimes get. You should come back during the day sometime to ski the glades! It feels like a much bigger mountain when you aren't limited to the night skiing trails.

Great conditions continue this weekend! The mountain is still 100% open and surfaces are mostly packed powder. Today hasn't been very busy and there are no lines at the lifts.

Great conditions continued today! The mountain was busier with lines reaching around 5 minutes long, but the slopes remained uncrowded, as usual. I also got a chance to cross country ski after work and the Nordic trails were in prime shape!

Today has been significantly less busy than the other two weekend days, but snow surfaces remain good and the weather has been perfect. We're looking at up to 10" inches tonight into tomorrow which should make the rest of the week fantastic!

This storm hasn't been delivering as much depth as we hoped with only about 4 inches so far, but the snow has a nice creamy consistency and the skiing is really good! There are very few people at the mountain today and plenty of fresh tracks to go around!

Groomed trails are excellent today and ungroomed terrain (including woods) is surprisingly good. Ungroomed snow is dense, but soft enough to get an edge. Areas which hadn't received traffic before the storm have some thin crust, but even those areas are manageable.

The sun is softening things up and everything is skiing well today! Today is one of our busiest days yet this year and lines are averaging about 5 minutes long.

A perfect bluebird day! Everything skied really well and the weather was perfect. Being the end of vacation week, it was also less busy and lines were never more than a minute or two long. Unfortunately it looks like a warm week ahead with not much new snow.

Things started out firm today, but are softening up nicely. It's not a cold day, but definitely cooler than the last few days have been. It's nice to be able to ski at BMOM on weekday when there's very few people here.

We are picking up a few inches of snow today which has made for a nice surface to ski on. Unfortunately, after today the weather looks pretty turbulent, so this may be the last day of nice conditions for a while.
