About Meadowlark Lodge

Meadowlark Lodge is a ski resort in the Bighorn Mountains, Wyoming. PeakCam tracks snow depth from the assigned NRCS station, updated every six hours.

Frequently Asked

Where is Meadowlark Lodge?
Meadowlark Lodge is a ski resort in the Bighorn Mountains, Wyoming. Coordinates: 44.16° N, 107.22° W.
How much snow does Meadowlark Lodge get in a typical season?
At the Powder River Pass NRCS station (9,480 ft), the 1991–2020 median snow depth peaks at 41 inches around Mar 22; that is depth on the ground at one elevation, not seasonal snowfall.
What is the base depth at Meadowlark Lodge today?
As of 9:48 a.m. MT Oct 20, the SNOTEL sensor at the Powder River Pass station (9,480 ft) measures a 0 inches base at Meadowlark Lodge.
Where does Meadowlark Lodge's snow data come from?
From the NRCS snow-telemetry station assigned to Meadowlark Lodge. PeakCam syncs it every six hours and runs range and spike quality checks. When at least two unflagged on-mountain user reports land within 24 hours, they can move the condition rating by one tier — they never change the depth number. Sensor readings can differ from the resort's own report, which usually quotes the upper mountain.
