About Burnsville and Buck Hill

Burnsville is a suburb south of the Twin Cities, in Dakota County, Minnesota. Buck Hill is one of the best known local ski areas in the metro, with modest vertical drop but a long tradition of night skiing and family lessons. The surrounding landscape is gently rolling farmland and woodland that has become heavily residential, so the hill stands out as a rare winter destination close to the city.

What the camera shows and when to watch

The camera is aimed at the clock tower, so it is most useful as a check on the base area. Watching in the early morning shows whether snowmaking and grooming have taken place, while evenings are popular for seeing the lit slopes if night skiing is running. Snow cover, fog and freezing rain are the conditions most likely to change what you see, so the view can look very different from one day to the next.

Practical notes and nearby cameras

Minnesota winters are cold, with January temperatures often well below freezing and snow season running roughly from December to March. Spring and autumn are milder but less reliable for skiing. Burnsville is about 22 kilometres from the Inver Grove Heights golf course camera and about 26 kilometres from downtown Saint Paul, so the nearby cameras give a quick comparison of conditions across the metro area.
