Unfavorable conditions cause pause for uphill skiing at Whitefish Mountain Resort

Due to unfavorable snow conditions and increased pressures from holiday visitation, Whitefish Mountain Resort and the U.S. Forest Service have paused all uphill skiing traffic within the resort's boundaries.
The change went into effect on Monday, Dec. 25.
Until further notice, no uphill hiking or skiing is not allowed in an effort to prevent collisions and other accidents that may occur due to unseasonably thin snow coverage, limited open terrain and crowds expected around the New Year's Eve weekend. This pause will be in effect at all hours — before, during and after the resort’s daily chairlift operations.
