flag Soldier Mountain opened Jan. 10 with full operations; others remain closed due to poor snow.

flag Soldier Mountain in Idaho opened for the 2025–26 season on January 10, 2026, with both chairlifts running and several runs, including snowcat terrain, available due to strong snow coverage above 7,000 feet. flag Other resorts, including Magic Mountain, remain closed due to insufficient snow and rocky terrain despite recent snowfall. flag Larger resorts like Sun Valley and Bogus Basin are managing better thanks to natural snow and snowmaking, with Bogus Basin selling out of day passes and urging advance reservations. flag Forecasted conditions through January 16 are mostly dry and sunny, with cold nights supporting artificial snow production but no significant natural snow expected. flag The uneven snowpack continues to create disparities across Idaho’s ski industry.
