Boiseans love their ski hill. Bogus Basin has been luring skiers for seven decades.
It’s a rainy/almost snowy day in the Treasure Valley, but we’re surrounded by winter storm warnings and winter driving conditions.
The National Weather Service reports “widespread accumulating snow is expected across the area today and tonight, except not in the Treasure and Magic valleys.”
At Bogus Basin, as of 3:30 p.m. the ski resort reported three new inches of snow Sunday with a base depth of 15 inches. The ski area opened for the season Friday, with current hours of 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Hours and open slopes will increase as the season continues and snow accumulates.
Bogus Basin Mountain Recreation Area opened Friday with a modest turnout, just in time for the critical holiday period.
The first snowflakes of the season fell Tuesday morning on some parts of Western Washington, snarling commutes but thrilling those who spent the day playing in the powder. And it might not be over yet.
