SkiFlow: Real-Time Ski Traffic

SkiFlow — Live Ski Traffic, Lift Wait Times & Trail Conditions

The real-time ski conditions app for skiers and snowboarders who want to ski smarter, not longer. Track live lift wait times, trail crowd density, snow forecasts, and mountain conditions at 80+ ski resorts worldwide — all from one crowd-sourced ski report app.

SKI SMARTER. FIND EMPTY RUNS IN REAL TIME.

Tired of standing in 20-minute lift lines while the next chair over is empty? Sick of skiing down to find a run bumper-to-bumper with snowplowers? SkiFlow shows you live traffic on every run and every lift at your resort — so you can spend less time in crowds and more time skiing fresh snow.

HOW IT WORKS

SkiFlow uses anonymous, opt-in location data from other skiers on the mountain to build a real-time heatmap of crowd density. Green runs are empty. Red runs are packed. It's that simple.

KEY FEATURES

- HOME DASHBOARD
One glance at your resort's overall crowd level, lift status, and 24-hour snowfall the moment you open the app — then jump straight to the live map or any other tool.

- TRAIL-LEVEL TRAFFIC OVERLAY
Every run on the mountain colored by current crowd density — green when empty, red when packed. Updated every 30 seconds.

- LIVE LIFT STATUS + WAIT TIMES
See every lift's open, closed, or on-hold status in real time. Skiers report their actual wait times from the chair — crowd-sourced estimates color-coded green (under 5 min) to red (15+ min).

- 7-DAY SNOW FORECAST + BUSY PREDICTION
Hourly snow totals for the next 24-72 hours, plus a predicted busy-ness score for each of the next 7 days — pick the least-crowded, best-snow day to ski.

- COMPARE RESORTS
Epic and Ikon pass holders: see every resort ranked by live crowd density in one screen, then tap to instantly switch and ski the less-crowded mountain.

- HISTORICAL HEATMAPS
Wondering what your favorite run looks like on a typical Saturday afternoon? Swipe the time slider to see crowd patterns from past days.

- FAVORITE RUNS + PUSH ALERTS
Save your favorite runs and get a push notification when one drops to light-crowd density.

- WORKS OFFLINE
The last-known heatmap, lift status, and trail map are cached locally — a banner shows if you lose signal on the mountain.

- NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED
Sign in anonymously in one tap. No name, no email, no phone number needed.
