Sun Valley-forum threads on an April visit describe closing dates as genuinely variable year to year, posters naming Bald Mountain's typical second-weekend-of-April closure and Dollar Mountain's last-weekend-of-March finish as standard but conditions-dependent. Regulars call a thirty-six-year local's take that timing is always different a real reflection of how much this shifts season to season. Posters call early April genuinely still active beyond skiing, several regulars naming snowshoeing, skate skiing, thermal pools and shopping as standard alongside whatever terrain remains open. Regulars call the Dollar Dayz Cold Bowl Pond Skim a real end-of-season tradition, several threads naming live music and prizes as part of the closing celebration. Posters recommend checking current lift status before an April trip, several regulars calling this standard given how much dates can shift. The record: 10.5C days, -3.3C nights, 32.6mm across nearly 6 days and 71 percent humidity.

Forum posters describe March in Boise as genuinely transitional - it could feel like winter or like spring, sometimes both within the same day. Posters citing a mid-March spring break stretch reported daytime highs typically in the low 60sF with nighttime lows in the 30sF, alongside spring flowers and greenery starting to appear. Posters discussing wintry conditions that occasionally linger into late February or early March are consistent that any snow or cold snap this late in the season tends to resolve within a day or two rather than sticking around. Posters generally rate March as a genuinely mixed early-spring month for Boise, mild afternoons and chilly mornings the reliable pattern, with real day-to-day variability still worth planning around.

Forum regulars consistently pick September as prime time: mid-month temperatures run about 10 degrees cooler than late August (roughly 65F vs 75F), so you still get long warm days and comfortable nights without August's peak heat and fire risk. One poster's blunt reasoning: it's hot in August with a real chance of wildfire smoke, so September is when 'most tourists are gone and locals have their place back' - you also land right in the run of outdoor events like Jazz on the Grove and the weekly Alive After Five series. Worth a heads-up regardless: wildland fire smoke is possible in September, not guaranteed, but common enough that forum regulars flag it every year.
