Ski areas across Colorado welcomed up to a foot of new snow this morning, offering skiers and riders excellent spring skiing conditions at Colorado Ski Country USA (CSCUSA) member ski areas. Forecasts call for snow to return to Colorado later this week and continue falling through the rest of March.

Telluride Ski Resort led the state with 12 inches of snow in 24 hours, giving skiers and riders a foot of powder on Monday. Winter Park Resort also enjoyed double-digit snow, with 10 inches falling on the slopes in 24 hours.

Steamboat Resort and Powderhorn Resort each saw 9 inches of powder on the snow stake, while 8 inches fell at both Wolf Creek Ski Area and Silverton Mountain. Elsewhere in Colorado, Sunlight Mountain Resort collected 7 inches of fresh snow, while Eldora received 6 inches in 24 hours.

All ski areas in the state received snow from this storm.
