New Centennial Express Webcam Ready to Track Next Wave of Winter Storms
Brundage Mountain Resort rolled out a new streaming webcam just in time to track a weekend storm system that could bring up to a foot and a half of fresh snow to the mountain.
The Centennial Express Cam provides a continuous live stream from a camera at the top of the Centennial Express. The new high-speed lift was installed in 2023. The live stream images rotate between several scenic views, including a look across Payette Lake down Long Valley and a zoomed in view of the snowy backcountry atop majestic Granite Mountain, in addition to shots of the Lakeview top terminal and Centennial lift line.
“This upgrade makes the Brundage Mountain webcam network extra fun to explore,” says Brundage spokesperson, April Whitney. “The snowcam at the base of the mountain is legendary, but it doesn’t show what’s happening on the other parts of the mountain. Between this new Centennial camera and the rotating live streams at the top of the BlueBird and Bear Chair, you can now get a clear picture of conditions across the mountain and even watch storm clouds moving in from the west.”
Brundage Mountain has been open seven days a week since November 22. Brundage has 100% of its lifts operating daily, with 91% of the mountain’s runs open, including all primary runs, the entire Lakeview and Beartopia zones, and most of Hidden Valley.
Snow fanatics and forecasters are monitoring an incoming storm system that could bring anywhere from 9 to 18 inches of new snow between Friday evening and Sunday evening. The resort has already amassed a 46” base at the top of the mountain and a 31” base at the bottom.
“It’s a bit of a dream scenario heading into Winter Break,” says Whitney. “We’ve got a great base and this next storm looks poised to build on that and also bring us a healthy dose of fresh powder.”
