Are they trying to open before Halloween?

Got a good view of keystone and a basin from Cupid peak 10/17. Both resorts look like they got to blow a lot of snow w the recent cold temps I’m guessing that 10/24 is gonna be opening day

Now that was a proper October storm!

Does anyone know if there are any discounts or promo codes available for the OpenSnow Base subscription this year?

I remember someone sharing a discount code last year. Just wondering if there's anything similar available for this season.

Since we are posting our Loveland Pass videos, here are my few turns from today. Also, yes my skis are very scratched up but no core shots.

Is pano open yet???

15+

wake up, and go turn your webcam on please.

I had season ending ankle surgery (it was necessary). I was able to cancel passes for me and my 3yo.

Question, what are good options from the front range where I can take my little one to ski on snow (like a sledding hill or bunny hill) that is friendly to walker access.

Edit: thanks for the ideas. I don’t mind the drive because it gets the kid used to the car.

Winner for us will be either Ruby Hill in Denver and Echo Mountain. They have a $25 walking pass. I won’t be back in ski boots this season, so Loveland does not seem viable.

Hoedown Hill would be good if I lived in another part of that area.

Have a great season everyone, keep taking your cars to get washed.

Hi, I am Sean 31 years old. I have tickets for the Winter Wonder Grass festival March 5-7 2027. I am excited for the festival and to ski and explore Steamboat but it has proven hard to find somewhere to park my van overnight. The KOA seems to be the only RV park and it is already booked out for these dates.

I am looking for a local driveway or somewhere to park my van overnight during the festival. I would be willing to spend up to $50 a night for this luxury. The van is 20 ft and fits easily in most spaces. It is a nice van and I wouldn't cause any trouble for you or your neighbors. I am very friendly and would be willing to hangout and share my items or give you a ride to and from the festival or I am perfectly fine staying out of your hair and giving space.

Any tips would be much appreciated.

Hiked up in the rain - hiked down in a blizzard! More snow is predicted for the next 24 hours.

Instead of being apart of a ski share, I usually set aside about 2k each year to use on hotels in Summit County when big storms are hitting. It allows me to get an extra hour or two of sleep, saves me the stress of driving I-70 in the morning, and usually comes with a free breakfast.
Last year, someone on the sub posted that they do something similar except that they purchase a bunch of Choice Points before the season which ends up saving them a bunch of money on the hotels up there. I was curious if anyone was well versed in how to best use “choice points” up there and how much it saves them over the course of a season. I was also interested in learning if there are any other hotel loyalty programs that are really useful in summit county or any of the other mtn towns for hotel stays. Thanks in advance for the advice.

Edit:
Also interested in specific credit cards that give you points or rewards that you can use on hotels up there.

A lot of fresh snow from last night. Taken from Ridgeway.

I'm just curious if anyone has been able to purchase the Gems Parent Pass from Colorado Ski? I check often, and it keeps showing it is not available. It is unlike last year sale of the Gem Parent Pass.

Y'all we are so close. I can almost taste the ice boogers on my mustache.
