Michigan Ski Blog – Snow Reports

Marquette Mountain Snow Report – 03/16

**Conditions Update**

We have a delayed start this AM due to unload ramp conditions. We will do everything we can to keep Spring Carnival events on track. We recommend you show up at scheduled times to events, but give us some love if things are delayed a bit.

Conditions on the mountain:

We’ve got some firm corduroy even though we groomed in the wee hours instead of immediately after close. We will be taking some time to get a few freshly groomed passes on each run so that you can choose your challenge! Please keep an eye on the brief closures we will have and DO NOT enter a closed run.

It’s Spring Carnival! Come out and enjoy all the festivities. By the afternoon, the sun will be shining, the snow will be forgiving, and the vibe will be all us!

FROM Marquette Mountain >> 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐚 𝐰𝐫𝐚𝐩 𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐛𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧! 🏔️❄️
As the snow melts and we officially close the lifts, we are feeling incredibly humbled and overwhelmingly grateful. From those deep, classic Lake Superior lake-effect powder days to the warm, slushy spring laps under bluebird skies, this season was one for the books—and it’s all because of YOU.
𝐓𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲: You are the absolute heartbeat of Marquette Mountain. Whether you were here for first chair every weekend, taking your very first lesson, or just hanging out at the Tbar swapping stories, your energy and stoke make this place magic. Thank you for showing up, sharing your smiles, and making this mountain your winter home. We love our ski family! ❤️🚠
𝐓𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦: We cannot say thank you enough. To the snowmakers who worked through the freezing nights to lay down the base, the groomers who laid down fresh corduroy, the ski patrol who kept us safe, the lift ops who kept us moving, the instructors who passed on the passion, and the base area staff who kept us fueled and warm, and taught new skiers about gear—you are the unsung heroes of this mountain. Your hard work and dedication mean everything. 🍻🎿
We might be packing away our skis and boards for now, but the memories from this winter are going to keep us going until the flakes start flying again.
Enjoy the transition into spring, get summer your legs tuned up, and we will see you back on the mountain soon! 🌲🚵‍♂️
With endless gratitude,
The Marquette Mountain Team #marquettemountain #SkiMichigan

FROM Marquette Mountain >> Alright, you caught us. 😉 While we won’t actually be launching you to the summit with literal rockets next winter (sorry, insurance reasons), we have some VERY REAL news that’s just as exciting.
It’s no secret that being without the Rocket Chair this season was tough on everyone. We want to give a massive shoutout to this incredible community for your patience, your loyalty, and for keeping the stoke alive while the lift was down. It's been a fabulous season!🙌
Now, for the announcement you’ve been waiting for: A BRAND NEW LIFT is officially being installed this summer to replace Rocket! 🏗️🚠
We are keeping the exact specs, type, and speed under wraps for just a little longer, but get ready for a massive upgrade to your mountain experience. The future of Marquette Mountain starts now.
What do you hope is coming? Dropping your best guesses in the comments below! 👇
