10+ Years In, Trusted By Millions
As adventure-focused meteorologists, we started OpenSnow to make it easy for our friends and family to find their next powder day. Now over 10 years later, we reach millions of people and still obsess about making the forecast more accurate and creating features to make finding your ideal conditions even easier.
Climate Change Commitment
Temperatures are warming and that's not good for snow. That's why we partner with Stripe to send 1% of our subscription sales to innovative projects that directly remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and ensure its sequestration in secure, long-term storage. This alone will not solve climate change, but it's a start.

"Any weather app can give a mediocre forecast for a mountain town, but only OpenSnow provides a good idea of actual mountain ski conditions. As a powder hunter that hits the slopes >30 days per season, OpenSnow is my go-to source for planning where I ski."
