More openings!

I don't have any pictures to upload right now, as I have not had time to go take any recently. I did want to update you on openings for the season, though.

We had a big weekend here in Summit County just this past weekend. Breckenridge, Copper Mountain, and Keystone all opened for the season on Friday, November 7th. They join Arapahoe Basin and Loveland, which have been open since Oct. 15th. This means that all of my local ski areas are now open for the season!

We have been having a bunch of little storms (typically around 6" or so...), but no huge storms just yet. Don't worry if you hear reports of no snow in Denver--they have not gotten any yet, but we have had plenty already! The mountains do funny things to weather patterns out here.....

In addition to the continual smaller storms we are getting (expecting 3"-6" more tonight), it has been getting REALLY COOOOOOOOLD at night! We have already had several nights with lows in the single digits, and tomorrow night I believe our forecast low is 7 above. The snowmaking crews can do miracles at those temperatures, and once formed into a base, that snow is actually more durable than natural snow. This means that any snow that DOES fall naturally will stick right away.

I will try to post more photos as soon as I have some new ones. Keep checking back for updates on our local conditions as well.

Just a reminder, many of our resorts are starting to fill during peak weeks of the winter--remember to get your reservations in ASAP! Some resorts are offering GREAT discounts for late bookings this year, so call us or go online to www.ColoradoToursLtd.com right away to book your winter ski group!

THINK SNOW!
