Read a message from Doc Pow, reminding us that spring skiing is far from over and that there's still plenty of fun to be had at resorts.

SNOWSEEKERS

The art of forecasting snow for an entire ski season is a tricky business. But it seems as if the weather-predicting pundits were pretty much bang on this year.

They were forecasting gobs of snow for the Canadian Rockies and beyond and the snow gods made them look like they really know their stuff.

Many resorts are still boasting double-digit snowfalls even as we glide into – and beyond - spring.

Here’s a list of scheduled closing dates and closing-day activities around western Canada and Montana. If the snow keeps falling, be sure to check back for bonus days and other updates in the coming weeks.
