With the winter in full swing, we’re excited to announce snow reports for skiers and snowboarders!  Search for any ski resort in the United States or Canada to get conditions before you head to the mountain.  Links to the resort’s site and a link to a map are also shown.

Below is the report for Whistler (a great place in British Columbia):

Of course, we have to be careful about showing conditions only when they’re relevant. For example, most people may not think of skiing when they search for blackjack, even though that’s the name of a mountain in Michigan. In this case we don’t show snow conditions unless you specifically ask for them.  Either Blackjack snow report or current conditions at blackjack does the trick.

We also don’t show conditions if they haven’t been updated by the resort in the past 24 hours.

You can also get conditions in your favorite ski area (try snow at Lake Tahoe) or state.  For example, CO snow report shows top resorts in Colorado with new snow and base depth info:

To keep things compact (Web results are important!) the four mountains with the most new snow are shown automatically.  If you’re interested in one that didn’t make the list, a link to the complete snow report is there too.

Check it out – we’d love to hear what you think.
