Projected 2017-2018 Opening & Closing Dates

[Posaune]

Stevens announced they are opening Thursday 11/16.

So, for all those people who are jonesing for early season snow, consider a flight to Seattle. When areas here open, it’s not WRODs, it’s natural snow and a lot of terrain opens up pretty quickly.

I've been watching things at Stevens and I would bet that it's really thin coverage, though it's puking right now. Bring your rocks and stay on the main runs.

We're heading for Baker's opening day tomorrow. 50" at Heather Meadows, 65" on top and it's dumping hard.

Whistler opens Friday the 17th!

Sun Peaks opens tomorrow, Nov.18 with 5 out of 6 chairlifts running and skiing on all 3 mountains. Probably the most lifts and runs on opening day in SP's history. Rock skis likely not needed.

Put this in the the Targhee logistics there but shoulda put it here?
Opening day at Grand Targhee today. 13" of fresh as of morning report and still coming down. Didn't take the camera up-would just would have been just white streaks anyhow. Pic from down by the parking lot. Just above. Path to the Trap. Got at least 5-6" more between 8:30 and 2PM and hit some good squalls in Teton valley on the way home. Terrible skiing- nothing groomed! Too much powder. (oops wrong thread- belongs in that S'bird one).

Sugar mtn and cataloochee opened here in NC today. App opens Fri. Wolf is blowing today.

Appalachian is opening on Thanksgiving and Beech is scheduled for Fri the 25th, Wolf is Tentatively looking at the 5th but could be earlier

Dates are set. Some are "flexible" I suppose.

I'm shocked to see Eldora saying the 22nd.

I can find anything for Eldora on the 22nd instead of the 15th.

WP is saying the 29th and not the 22nd. They’ve started keeping Jane open later, so not sure if that’s the entire mountain or just Jane or just some part of Jane.

And...we’re only three weeks before the entire Epic Pass is back at A-Basin.

I was just looking at the post from Ken, no idea where he got it.

I should probably go to the 9News website and verify but when Matt was onsite at Copper this week doing the piece about closing day he did mention WP/MJ. I thought it was the 22nd and MJ was tentative but I could be wrong. I know they have "Anticipated Closing Day: April 29, 2018" on the website

I was wondering, too, and couldn’t find anything on Eldora’s website.

Yep - WP is posting a week later than their original date of the 22nd. Looks like a quiet extension of the season by a week, presumably based on WPs higher snow totals over the last couple of months.

Here is my first compilation of the Spring on who's closing where in the East (Canada and US - excluding Midwest states). Great skiing still left in Quebec; I'm also planning to go to Tremblant soon.
