Fergi update 3/12/2026- CLOSED FOR MARCH 14-15. As you can see in the photo, Fergi has lots of bare spots. Forecast is also showing rain this weekend. Maybe a miracle will happen in the next couple of weeks. But we might see you next at Fergi Fest to celebrate our short season.

Fergi Update as of 3/6/2026 - CLOSED for the weekend of March 7-8. It has just been too warm for Fergi to open this upcoming weekend. We hope everyone is finding snow in other locations or starting their spring projects early.

Hey your social media manager is hunting snow in Idaho and has been trying to connect with hill management about Fergi this weekend. No update has been received yet. My guess Fergi opening this weekend is pretty low.

Fergi Update as of 2/26/2026 - Due to the spring-like weather we had this week, Fergi will be closed this weekend of February 28 and March 1. Hopefully, our season wasn't super short lived. Fingers crossed March decides to bring us some winter weather.

Something is magical about Fergi. For how little snow we have, the hill was fast and fun even with warm temperatures and wild winds. Bombing laps brought a smile to my face and saw a bunch of smiles all day. I don't know about you but I didn't realize how much I miss seeing all my friends on the hill too. Share with us your photos and videos of some Fergi magic in the comments. Let's spread some Fergi love!

P.S. Fingers crossed it doesn't get too warm this week.

And, thanks to everyone who stepped up last minute to volunteer!

Fergi Update 2/13/2026 - CLOSED for the holiday weekend, 2/14-2/16. We are beginning to feel like a broken record. The snow really didn't materialize this week and due to that we are still closed. I don't know about you but it feels like winter never really showed up this season in the valley. Don't get me wrong the long walks in the sun during the day have been nice. It gets us all wondering will the snow ever return.

Nothing has really changed since last weekend. We are still closed and really hoping by the second week of February we get some snow.

If you are looking something to do this weekend and want to support a great winter cause, we suggest you go to the Eastern Oregon Backcounty Festival at Anthony Lakes. All proceeds support the Wallowa Avalanche Center and keeping us safe in Eastern Oregon when winter recreating in the backcountry.

Lots of fun activities like a pie auction, music, movies, races, clinics and more. Click on the link to discover all the fun - https://wallowaavalanchecenter.org/2026-backcountry-festival
