Just wondering if anybody knows which resorts might actually be open by or around thanksgiving. I know ski brule is already open, i'm just not sure that long of a drive is worth it. thanks.

Nubs was supposed to but...

"Based on today's weather report we will not be open for Thanksgiving weekend.  We are shooting for a Dec. 1 opening day.  This can change if the weather turns colder than predicted so stay tuned."

im sure nothing down south will before December either.

crystal won't be open i doubt anywhere else around here will. if theres any snow on the ground though, we'll ski our ramp. otherwise, we'll keep on skiing the ramp with carpet.

Pine Knob was sick today, they had so much more snow than expected...they bought new snow guns this year and looked like they had a huge base. Cant wait for a park.

pine knob is sick during the winter...they have 3 parks and the jumps get about the same size as the ones at nubs or boyne, if not bigger. Rails are good, nothing too crazy but enough to keep you entertained (some have decent gaps).

I didn't make it too nubs last winter and i heard they had a pretty dope jump line.  Pine Knob had the biggest tables for a while in SE michigan, but mt holly has been getting better each year.

Pine Knob is sick you just want to make sure it isn't too windy or else  everything is ice and gay.
