actually just the 48 states. as far as im concerned hawaii and alaska are actually just pixar animations. ive never seen them or been to them. actually africa is just a big fat lie.

but seriously i hope you were being sarcastic, especially if you live in the US

Fuck dude...have you ever traveled? If you have ever been to AK they fucking say the lower 48...if you've been to Hawaii they say the mainland...just do everyone a favor and dont verbalize your over thought, meaningless input....

A-Basin and Loveland open early (mid Oct) but Breck and Keystone came with it last year.  On opening day (first week of Nov) Breck had 40-50 ft tables and an assortment of rails and Keystone had pretty much a full park.  Everyone is going to be in summit county again early season this year.

I dunno, but Timberline's got snow all year. Plus there are a few glacial backcountry spots, but I'm pretty sure your not that desperate.

last fall i managed to ski about 6 inches of snow that fell in mid september in MT. there was one bare dirt hillside that the snow stuck to well for some reason, and we just lapped it. but, i mean, it wasnt like a big dump or anything, and i think it all melted after a couple days

Loveland ski area is always the first to open in the lower 48. They start making snow in 26 days!! It's always a fight between A-Basin and Loveland.

An overnight storm has left a dusting of snow on the high mountain peaks after dumping hail and rain in some parts of Colorado.

National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Baker said that mountain snow isn't unusual for late August.

He said the snow fell mostly above 13,000 feet and was more granular than the flaky snow that's common during winter and spring storms.
