New snow at Arapahoe Basin, CO this morning.

Last weekend, Killington VT, Sunday River ME, and Mont Saint-Sauveur Canada were all open and glimmering in the East Coast’s spectacular Fall colors.

The Beast is feeling a bit under the weather, and lifts will not spin this weekend” – Killington,VT yesterday

Killington, VT looking washed out and rainy today at 11am. This is the run that was open last weekend.

This weekend, none of those ski resorts are open after a big warm up rain event that likely washed most their fake snow away. Well, actually, Sunday River hasn’t thrown in the towel just yet on this weekend… They’re saying that they’ll let us know by this evening if they think they’ll be able to get open this weekend. We hope so.

“Oh yes, we have our sights on this weekend. The warm weather that came through this week is starting to take a hike and a drier, winter-like chill is working its way back into the air. Tomorrow evening, temps should be back in the snowmaking zone. When that happens, we’ll fire up the guns and work our magic on the hill. Check back here Friday afternoon for an update on opening. We can’t make any promises either way until we hear from mountain ops tomorrow, but that gang of pros is really good at what they do and they are stubborn. Right now, they are not ready to give up on our weekend plans for skiing and snowboarding. No sir. No ma’am.” – Sunday River yesterday
