From their website:
It's official: Mt. Baker opening day is SUNDAY DEC. 15th!
We're doing it in classic Baker style, with over 30" of new snow since Wednesday night! The crew has been out on the hill since dawn, assessing conditions and preparing the mountain and facilities for opening. And things are looking good - check out the video and photos below!
We will be open Sunday from 9:00 - 3:30 out of the Heather Meadows Base Area with Chairs 1, 2, 3 & 4 operating. We hope to also open Chair 5 and more of the mountain as the day progresses. Heather Meadows Day Lodge will be open, and Raven Hut will be open with Grab-and-Go service only.
Looking further out, the weather is expected to go cold and clear-ish starting around Sunday, then snow is expected to return towards the middle-to-end of next week. This could set us up with a nice refresh for the weekend and Santa Photos on the 21st and 22nd!
Sweet news! It has been cold enough up there but the jet stream kept all the moisture down South.
