What the fuck? I don't buy it. They've never opened that early. Either way, I will not be disappointed if it goes down :)

Yikes. That sucks.

Mine usually opens around Halloween, but that's only the Bunny Hill (beginner hill) set up with rails and boxes and little kickers.

You're probably right.

Last year they opened on october 4th or 7th or something like that and it was the earliest opening in some crazy amount of years.

I won't get my hopes up for a september opening though, although that would be really sweet.

Ridiculous

the mountains out here need more than a day of snowmaking before they are skiable, this isnt the eastcoast where a foot of snow is good to ski on
