Eldora Ski Resort just sent me an email. Well, they emailed a lot of people, so it’s not like they’ve given me any special treatment. Yet. I have the feeling we are going to be the best of friends, and really I don’t ask for much… just soft clean snow upon which to ski. Oh, but I digress!

The road up to Eldora Ski Resort has been opened! This is record speed, considering the huge amount of flood damage in this area around Boulder.

Aspen Highlands Ski Resort will soon be opening. The official date is December 10, 2011. Now hit those slopes!

Copper Mountain is usually one of the first Colorado ski resorts to open, and Nov 14 is a respectable opening date. I was kind of hoping they would open on October 14, but I guess life isn’t always fair.

Tonight I will perform my snow dance, as I think we are all ready for it to start snowing. And who knows? Maybe “Winter season starts Nov. 14, 2008” is more of a suggestion than a hard and fast rule!
