USA - Massachusetts: latest snow conditions round-up

USA The US ski season got underway on Friday afternoon when Arapahoe Basin ski area in Colorado decided to open at short notice - only announcing it intended to do sop a few hours before it did, at 3.30 pm. Coincidentally A Basin's opening decision came just after another high-altitude Colorado ski area, Keystone, announced it would be opening the next day, Saturday.

Both resorts had been snowmaking since around the start of the month to build bases and both benefitted from the big snowstorm that blew into the Colorado Rockies as forecast on Wednesday/Thursday last week. But there were blue skies over the weekend for opening. A third Colorado area that also looked set to open, Loveland, decided not to but seems like it will do at any time. Snowmaking is also underway at some resorts in the east including Killington in Vermont and Sunday River in Maine, so again these may be opening in the next week or so if conditions remain good. Back out west Mt Rose in California says it plans to open this coming weekend.
