The Sandia Peak snow report for Dec 21 is a 6" base depth with 1 of 4 lifts open. Please note ski conditions and snowfall at Sandia Peak are sourced directly from the ski resort and are only recorded during the official ski season's opening to closing dates.
Snow Reporter Comments: We will be open for seven days starting today, Saturday, December 21st, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., weather and snow conditions permitting.
We will be operating Chair 4 only until we receive more natural snowfall.
Always ski and board with care while enjoying the slopes, as early-season conditions and unmarked obstacles exist.
We will continue to make snow whenever possible to improve snow conditions, and remember, every day it does not snow; it is one day close till it will.
Sandia Peak sits high above Albuquerque and boasts perhaps the nation's easiest ski resort access from a major city via a 60-person aerial tram that rises more than 4,000 vertical feet in less than 20 minutes. It is New Mexico's oldest ski area and offers beginner and intermediate skiers and boarders some long cruisers. Weekends can get crowded and lifts are old, but a weekday powder dump even can entice experts to sample its slopes.
