The San Juan Snowcast
The San Juan Snowcast is a podcast all about snow, avalanches, and backcountry skiing in the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado. Stay up-to-date on what's going on in the sky and on the ground this winter by tuning in!
The San Juans 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 local backcountry skiers and riders make safer decisions by sharing current conditions reports, avalanche incident debriefs, and backcountry educational nuggets.
New episodes drop semi-weekly throughout the Winter to keep you up-to-date with the current conditions in the San Juan backcountry!

THINK SNOW!
The San Juan Snowcast
Episode 18 || February 23rd, 2022 || Storm Update
It’s storming, folks! In this episode, we dive into the mid-storm weather and snowpack update, and talk about how it’s time to change our mindsets and how we approach the backcountry. As old Bobby Dylan says, the conditions “they are a-changing”, and we need to adapt our mindsets accordingly.
This week’s episode was sponsored by Mountain Trip. Check out mountaintrip.com for more information on our trips and avalanche courses! And, this week’s “Pre-Mature Funk Break” was a little snippet of King Floyd’s “Feel Like Dynamite”, which is such a kick-ass funky jam.
Play safe out there everyone, and let’s get through these High Danger days without any major avalanche incidents, eh?! Until next time… THINK SNOW!
