Powder Chaser
Real Snow Quality Tracking
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
NEW: 7-day snow quality forecast with ML-powered predictions at 900+ resorts across 23 countries. Know exactly when to go for the best powder!
Powder Chaser — Stop guessing. Start chasing.
Other apps tell you it snowed. We tell you if it's actually good. Our ML-powered snow quality algorithm analyzes 40 data points — from snow compaction and aging to freeze-thaw cycles to wind conditions — to give you a simple answer: is it worth the drive?
WHY POWDER CHASER IS DIFFERENT
Most ski apps show snowfall numbers. But 10cm of snow means nothing if it fell on an ice layer, got wind-packed, or melted the next day. Powder Chaser tracks what actually matters:
• Real snow quality that accounts for compaction, settling, and aging — not just raw snowfall
• Quality ratings from Excellent to Not Skiable based on actual surface conditions
• ML-predicted scores trained on thousands of real conditions
• Multi-elevation analysis at base, mid, and summit
7-DAY SNOW QUALITY FORECAST
Plan your powder days with confidence. Our forecast doesn't just show snowfall predictions — it predicts actual snow quality for each day, so you can pick the best day to go.
