Keystone has things on lock.  There one of a few places who open up for the season and already have a legit park.  I was there in early december last year and they had almost everything finished in the parks.

The www.keystone.snow.com website says


We're looking forward to opening on November 9!

It is, I was a snowmaker there!!  Opening day is like ten times better than most mountains.  They have a whole run open from top to bottom not just a few houndred yards.

the early park was fun, but once A51 opened things went bonkers.

they might open a week earlier. their leases start the 15th so they can blow snow.
thats what went down last year.
