Soldier Mountain Snowfall Last 10 Days (inches)

Soldier Mountain hasn't posted a snow report in the last 10 days (many resorts don't until they open), so these are from the Soldier R.S. SNOTEL station (5,780 ft, 1 mi away), a USDA snow gauge, or NOAA's National Snowfall Analysis at the resort, whichever recorded more snow. Every SNOTEL station's new snow →

A Few Words on the Snow at Soldier Mountain

Soldier Mt. has no detail snow data, so we estimate 125 inches snowfall, based upon its location in the foothills approaching Sun Valley. Soldier does not get much snow but it's very quiet.

Accumulation and Preservation

Soldier Mt. is open consistently only during above average snow years. Exposure is north and east, so when it has snow it should preserve fairly well.
