Montana Ski Area Closed Indefinitely

They're waiting until they "get more snow."
Ian Greenwood Feb 1, 2024

Starting Friday, January 26th, Turner Mountain Ski Area, Montana, closed due to warm weather and low snowfall. … Per a Facebook update published Tuesday, January 30th, this "temporary" closure will remain in effect until more snow arrives.

Under the January 30th update from Turner, one skier captured the mood perfectly: "This winter has sucked!!!"

It's not just a feeling. Turner first opened for skiing and riding on January 15th of this season. Last winter, it opened over two weeks earlier, on December 24th.

Similarly, in the Kootenai region where Turner is located, the snow water equivalent is 68% of the median, per the Natural Resources Conservation Service.
