Information
OPENING FOR THE 2025 SEASON SOON! Warm temperatures have taken its toll on our lower elevation snowpack. We won't have enough snow to open this weekend (12 July). The good news is that we are in an unsettled weather pattern for at least the next week. Also, there is still snow coverage above about 1650 m. It won't take much to turn things around for the tussocky slopes of Broken River. Fingers crossed for next weekend (19 July). 3 cm of new snow on the night of 12 July with more on the way.
