See the Latest and Most Accurate Ski Resort Conditions

The Ski Resort Reports map layer sources its information from OnTheSnow, a leading database for ski resort reports and conditions worldwide. OnTheSnow taps information directly from the ski resorts, ensuring you get the latest and most accurate information available.

View Snow Depth and Terrain Status

Ski resorts from around the world can be found in this map overlay. Simply click on a blue skier icon to see the entire ski resort report. You’ll find the ski area’s name and whether it’s open. Discover if it’s a powder day with new snow readings from the previous 24 and 72 hours.

Wondering if you need your rock skis? See the snow depth for the base, mid-mountain, and the summit. You’ll also see snow depth totals. Plus, get a sense of how big the resort is and how much terrain is open. See the total number of runs and how many of them are currently good to go.

Track Resort Weather, Including Wind Speed

Dress appropriately thanks to temperature readings at the base and the summit, and see that all too critical factor in determining your comfort: wind speed. If you’re not into downhill skiing, no problem. Find out if the resort offers nordic skiing right in this map. You’ll also see how many kilometers of trails are groomed for both classic and skate skiing.

Maybe the weather looks iffy and you just want to double-check that the resort is open. Or perhaps you’re hemming and hawing over which resort to visit this weekend. Either way, just glance at the Ski Resort Reports map to get the info you need.

Find the Freshies with the Ski Resort Reports Map

No matter where in the world you’re trying to ski, find the closest resorts and the freshest snow with Ski Resort Reports. See ski areas at even the most zoomed-out levels on the map to quickly access conditions. Most importantly, find the best snow in one glance: ski areas that have received snow in the past 24 hours glow neon blue on the map.

How to Use the Ski Resort Reports Map

Ski Resort Reports is a map overlay. This means it is designed to work in conjunction with one of our base maps. We recommend pairing Ski Resort Reports with Gaia Winter or Gaia Topo. Both of these base maps were designed in-house specifically for your adventures. Gaia Winter shows all the ski resort maps in the United States and Canada. Add this map to your arsenal and never get lost on the mountain again.

To use Ski Resort Reports, start by adding Gaia Winter or Gaia Topo as your base map. Add the Ski Resorts Map on top. Now you can see where ski resorts exist all over the world, as signified by the light-blue skier icon. Zoom in or click on a skier icon to see the name of the resort.

Tips for Getting Condition Updates in a Snap

To see the snow conditions and daily resort report, click on the skier icon. The info will appear in the sidebar if you’re on gaiagps.com. There’s one extra step in the app. First, click on the skier icon in the app. The Ski Resort Reports tile will appear as an option in the tap drawer. If you don’t see it, keep scrolling down through the options in the tap drawer. Next, click on the Ski Resort Reports tile to see the snow conditions and resort report.

Pro tip: turn on dark mode in the app to make the ski resorts pop out from the map even more.
