Mountain Report

Martin Luther King Weekend Outlook

MLK Weekend is lining up to be a true mid‑season highlight at Granite Peak, with 100% of the mountain expected to be open and excellent winter conditions across all terrain. Plentiful natural snowfall has added to our  already deep, consistent base, delivering strong coverage from top to bottom and setting up great skiing and riding for the holiday weekend.

Guests can expect a wide variety of terrain options, from groomed cruisers to steeper lines and natural features, all benefiting from recent snow and ongoing grooming efforts. Adding to the excitement, a brand new Banked Slalom on Meadows will be open for MLK Weekend, offering a fun and flowy trail for riders looking to test their skills.

With full terrain access, reliable snow conditions, and holiday energy on the mountain, Granite Peak is primed for a standout weekend.

Looking to venture north? MLK Weekend is also shaping up strong at our sister resorts. Snowriver is expected to be 95% open with a deep snowpack, while Lutsen Mountains anticipates expanded terrain across Eagle, Ullr, and Moose Mountains, with the possible return Mystery Mountain and Adrenaline on the notorious backside of Moose Mountain. With a Legendary Plus Pass or Flex Pass, you're free to travel between all three resorts and make the most of an unforgettable MLK Weekend across the Midwest. 

Daily Mountain Report Update

Mountain Report | Saturday, January 17th

Winter showed up at Granite Peak with 3 inches of new snow overnight Thursday, followed by light snowfall continuing through the day Friday and into the night. The steady snowfall has kept conditions soft and wintry across the mountain.

With new snow adding to the surface, coverage is skiing great and we are 100% open heading into the MLK holiday weekend. Stick around after your turns for après music in the Historic Chalet from 3–7 pm with Brad Emanuel setting the vibe.

It’s a classic mid‑January setup and a perfect time to get out and enjoy everything Granite Peak has to offer. ❄️🎿
