Snow Conditions

Cumbres Pass Yurts
Trail from BOW Yurt 12/24/23

The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Services monitors the snow depth at Cumbres Pass with a Snotel gauge (Cumbres Trestle) which produces daily/hourly reports.

Taos Yurt

The snotel report for Taos Ski Valley can be found under New Mexico/ Taos/ Taos Powderhorn.

The daily report for Taos Ski Valley is also an excellent approximation for the snow depth at the Yurt. However, during early season and low snow scenarios the ski valley report can include man-made snow while the Yurt will not. There are also live cams of several locations at the Ski Valley for up to date weather and conditions.
