Big snow this year at Alyeska

Alyeska got 40” of new snow the past few days.  The avy danger was high yesterday and they weren’t able to get the mountain open.

Today, they’ve got warmer temperatures which is creating high avy danger once more.

“Mountain Update: All this water is creating high spring avy conditions, the mountain will not open for skiing today. The tram is running for sight-seeing. Thanks for your patience!” – Alyeska ski resort

Pretty cool that they got so much snow this late in the year.

And, we guess it’s cool that they’ve gotten 944” of snow this winter.  It turns out that it snows in AK…

77″ in May only, 856″ since Nov. 1st and 944″ since Oct.1st
