Mountain
How big it is and what the skiing is like, each figure with its U.S. rank.
Lifts: the lifts mapped in OpenStreetMap, surface lifts and carpets included; the resort publishes no count.
Snow and weather
The National Weather Service forecast for the summit and the base. Live: each figure gives its source and time.
Trail map
2025–26 season · artist not stated
Seen as a trail map shows a mountain: from the base looking uphill, the ground tilted up (heights ×1.5); the arrow points north and the scale holds across the page. Runs and lifts as OpenStreetMap's contributors have mapped them, on the ground from USGS elevation data, with a stronger contour every 1,000 ft. The key counts the lines OpenStreetMap draws, not the resort's runs.
