Sincr there isn't a mountain near where I live I go to a lot of different places. I ski at grand Geneva, snowstar in the quad cities, hidden valley Missouri, and I'm doing my first trip to granite peak after Christmas. There are two places to ski in Illinois, galena and the quad cities are where they are found.

I was talking to a guy the other day and he was saying 15 years ago people were happy when there was skiing by mid December. Now if places aren't open by November 1st people bitch why aren't you open yet. Get over it people, bitching at ski resorts about the weather isn't going to change shit.

Will be a while on the east this year. Persistent deep low in the west means ridge in the east. Most model runs keep it simiLar to that for the next 2 weeks.

Realistically I think most resorts are looking for a early December start this year.

Don't worry killington will be open soon enough. Suppose to start getting cooler around here in the upcoming weeks, until then keep using the summer setups, hit up some trampoline parks, huck a backflip off your houses roof, Idk anything to keep you occupied until it starts dumping
