We’re only just into November, but at least 20 resorts will be open this weekend for skiers and riders to make their first turns of winter 2024-25.

While they rely mostly on man-made snow to open this early and with as much terrain as possible, we all want real snow. While we’re not quite in ‘powder day’ territory, according to OpenSnow, these open resorts in North America have seen the most snow in the last five days.
