"We opened on Saturday with good skiing on six runs in the lower mountain. The Eagle Ridge Quad chair is expected to start operating on Thursday, meaning six of seven lifts and most of the mountain will be open by this weekend. The Paradise Quad Chair and the Canadian Rockies Express Quad chair will be opening TODAY (Tuesday November 17th), along with the majority of the runs in the upper portion of the mountain. The snow continued to fall throughout the day making for ideal conditions on the mountain," Kyle Harms, Director of Marketing and Communications for Tourism Jasper said.Īdd to this another 20 to 30 cm of snow that’s expected to fall by Tuesday evening, and Marmot Basin is looking at having another stellar weekend to boast about. "It was a great opening weekend up at Jasper’s winter playground. Overnight, Jasper National Park was made into a Canadian winter wonderland like no other. The weather cooperated immensely over the weekend as 30+ cm of snow blanketed the mountain in less than 32 hours starting early Sunday morning. Layers and Layers of Snow Make for More Than Ideal ConditionsĮxcitement and anticipation hung in the air last week as ski enthusiasts counted down to Saturday, November 14th - opening day at Marmot Basin.
