Weather at Copper Mountain

Weather at Copper Mountain: a six-day forecast for three elevations of the mountain. Temperature, precipitation, wind and cloud cover from MET Norway. Updated several times a day.

What the weather at Copper Mountain is usually like

The ski area runs from 2,960 to 3,792 m above sea level - a 832 m vertical. In January the daytime average is -3 °C at the base and -9 °C at the summit. Plan for that 5 °C gap: what feels right at the base will be cold up top. The summit sits around -9 °C at the same time of year - at that point the wind matters more than the thermometer.

Average daytime highs at the summit stay below freezing from November through April.

Snowmaking covers 50% of the runs, so the start of the season barely depends on when natural snow arrives. The season usually runs from 7 November to 2 May.

By April the base is around 5 °C while the summit still holds 0 °C: on days like that, start early and stay high. Based on monthly averages and the resort elevations. For the coming days, see the forecast above.
