Before putting on your skis, check the snow conditions at Donner Ski Ranch one last time.
Depth and quality of the snow, date of the last snowfall, today's weather, temperature, wind... all the information you are looking for to have a great day of skiing. Please note Donner Ski Ranch snow reports are sourced directly from the ski resort and are only recorded during the official ski season's opening to closing dates.
Wind was whipping up the snow at the top of lifts, chilly on the lifts at the top this morning..... but almost empty, fully groomed slopes, in the sunshine, more than made up for it!
Donner Ski Ranch was first utilized for skiing in 1937 and is located high atop historic Donner Summit. The area's first rope tow was located at the base of the current lodge. Today, Donner has 400 skiable acres, 5 double and 1 triple chairlifts.
