Daily Report
Friday April 17, 2026. 4:22PM
Amazing day! Full sunshine by noon, soft snow for the cruising, and smiles all around. It’s spring skiing at Saddleback with blue skies and 60-degree weather.
Ski however you’d like when we get an afternoon of mashed taters like this one. Tons of fun and plenty of space.
One final day of our monumental 2025/2026 winter season remains. Come wrap up the ski season at Saddleback tomorrow! Lifts start at 9:30AM.
7:01AM
Our final Friday of the season! What a season it’s been. Through the highs and lows of this historic winter the Saddleback faithful showed up day after day, ready to embrace the conditions and ski some of the best slopes that the East Coast has to offer. A season like this one isn’t possible without the Saddleback legends and the first timers coming out and ripping it up. Thank you.
Today we’ve got warm springtime temperatures and variable springtime conditions. Forecasts are calling for temperatures in the high 50s this afternoon with sunshine working through morning cloud coverage. We will be starting with 9 open trails today as some spots are holding more snow than others. Uphill travel is closed today and tomorrow as there will be ongoing snowcat operations. The Rangeley Quad will get the day going with rides towards the top at 10AM.
Please note that there is no beginner terrain available today. While soaking up the sunshine and laying into those springtime turns, make sure to ski in control and with caution at Saddleback today. Variable coverage and natural hazards exist on open terrain. Respect posted signage and closed terrain.
Make the most of these last two winter season days and stop by The NEST today between 11AM and 4PM. Sneaky Pete’s, The Pub, and the Market Café will all be open today for your eating and drinking pleasure.
We will be open tomorrow, Saturday the 18th, from 9:30AM to 5PM for our final day of the 2025/2026 winter season. It has been quite the ride.
Let’s go shred!
