Schweitzer officials announced yesterday evening that crews have decided to keep the mountain closed at least through today due to poor weather conditions.
“Our plan is to extend our current hold on lift and terrain operations through … Thursday, Dec. 7, to allow some water to recede and give our crews a chance to evaluate conditions on the mountain,” officials said on Facebook.
With the warm temperatures and constant rain the past few days, much of the snow on the mountain has been melting, creating uncovered terrain and icy conditions. Usually open seven days a week, Schweitzer officials decided to close the mountain on both Tuesday and Wednesday this week due to these less than optimal conditions.
