"The late-season storms resulted in nearly 30% of the total precipitation for the season falling after the ski area closed, creating a 'Zombie Snowpack.'"
Bogus Basin, Idaho, faced a difficult ski season with low snowpack and high temperatures. After closing on March 22, only a few snowbanks remained. Despite the challenges, late-season storms in April brought substantial snowfall, reviving skiing conditions. The backcountry skiing community in Boise took advantage of the fresh snow, with nearly 30% of the season's precipitation occurring after the ski area closed. This late-season snow created a 'Zombie Snowpack,' allowing for renewed skiing opportunities.
