SANDPOINT — Activities are still in swing at Schweitzer despite a lack of plentiful snow this winter has brought North Idaho.

On a positive note, marketing communications manager Taylor Prather said the mountain has gotten over 13 inches of fresh snow in the past week, which has allowed the company to open a few more lifts than they were able to run last week.

“We currently have six of our chairlifts running,” she said. “The majority of the backside is currently closed due to low snow near the base of the lifts … We are still behind on snowfall and have battled some challenging weather extremes.”
