Customer Reviews
Good free snow reports
Every snow report so far has its strengths and weaknesses, this one included. It is laid out quit well, providing basic weather conditions for each resort. The graphics are great and I like the ability to change the background wallpaper. The trail map is not always useful, for example the Whistler/Blackcomb map cannot be zoomed enough to make it useful. The resort site and NOAA buttons are links to the corresponding sites in Safari, taking you out of the application. The search function could not find as many resorts as competing applications. It does not show the number of trails or lifts open, nor does it show the number of acres. All in all, it is a great free snow reporting tool.
Does not work at all
The original version was great. The recent versions take too long to load... And this most recent update... minor bug fixes? How about shortening the startup time to something under a week?? In the time it takes for this app to load I could drive to the mountain myself and take my own snow depth measurements.
Finally Acurate Snow Totals!
This is the first app that reports acurate snow totals for Breck, Keystone and A-Basin. I even paid for some apps. The layout is great as well. Thank you North Face!!! Outstanding!
