A Few Words On The Snow

If you're waiting for a powder day at Sipapu Ski Resort, then you might have a long wait. Only 8.0% of winter days see more than 6 inches of snowfall, which means, on average, you'll have to spend 10 days or more mining the slopes at Sipapu Ski Resort to score that one great day. It could be worse, however. You could be muskie fishing.

Skiing at Sipapu Ski Resort is about getting outside, ripping up the slope, eating chili dogs and getting in as much vertical as you can. It's not about big dumps. And that's okay. This place is about honing your skills for that trip to Snowbird or Alaska. With only 1.0% of months at Sipapu Ski Resort getting more than 90 inches of snow, this isn't the place to set up your powderhound shack.

Drought Potential
