Oct 17, 2012 Arapahoe Basin Ski Area Opened Today

Oct 17, 2012 - Arapahoe Basin Ski Area opened for the ski season today and became the first in the Colorado to open.  Many energized snowboarders and skiers showed up and the crowd peaked at about 10:30am.  The opening had an 18 inch base and one lift operating.  One intermediate trail was open.  The 5 inches of snow that fell earlier in the week contributed to the snow base total.

Loveland Ski Area plans to open next week and other Colorado Summit County ski areas have set opening days for November or December.
