Forecast today: Light snow
There are three main bases to choose from, but we’d recommend staying if Centre Village if you get the chance. Here you’ll find the best choice of restaurants, bars for après ski and the liveliest atmosphere. It is also the best place to start your day on the hill from – both the American Flyer and American Eagle lifts run from the edge of town here. .
Off the hill there is more to do in Copper than at many US resorts, with ice skating, snowshoeing and a 25 mile network of cross country trails to explore.

Hello, and welcome to the first of the Ski Club’s Snow Overviews for the 2024/25 winter season. With our first holidays jetting out this weekend, Reps eagerly packing their bags before heading out, and ski resorts opening across Europe, now is the perfect time to start thinking about snow!
Many resorts in the US are now open, especially out west, where we (as is traditionally) begin our overviews. On a macro level, there is generally not a huge amount to write home about, with steady atmospheric conditions for much of the region. This means that, for many areas, a mix of sun and cloud is in play. A weather front finishes its traverse across the Rockies on over Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing good snowfall to the Frontier Ranges and I-70 corridor. Following this, conditions in many areas will be fine, dry and bright, with plenty of sun, albeit cold, with overnight lows of -22˚C (-8˚F) possible.
Out on the Ice Coast a fairly similar pattern is in play, with milder temperatures to start the week and the odd shot of rain in store for some areas. This will cool off as the week continues, with some flurries of snowfall expected into the weekend.
