Good afternoon from snowy Big Sky Resort!
It looks and feels like mid-winter today, with temps just starting to climb above zero, snow guns blazing, and natural snow covering Lone Peak. With 51โ of total snowfall this month, Big Sky has received 237% of average snowfall, making this the third snowiest October in the past 20 years. Big Sky saw wind chill values as low as -20 this week, allowing for 80 hours of prime snowmaking conditions to build on a solid base.
Big Sky has plans to open in just 29 days on Thanksgiving Day (November 28th).
Keep up the snow dance, it’s working!
Too bad they won’t consider opening early, even if they have a huge base.
