The San Juan Snowcast

Chris Dickson

Stay up-to-date on what's going on in the sky and on the ground this winter by tuning in to the San Juan Snowcast. The San Juan Mountains are notorious for having one of the most dangerous snowpacks in North America, as well as some of the most incredible backcountry skiing in the state of Colorado. 

The Snowcast aims to help backcountry skiers and riders make safer decisions by disseminating current conditions reports, avalanche incident debriefs, and backcountry educational nuggets. 

New episodes drop whenever the snow does, all winter long. 

Follow along on Instagram @sanjuansnowcast and share the show with your touring partners.
