Ski. Arapahoe Basin is open. The resort's opening post says it opened Wednesday, Oct. 28, for its 80th season, the first resort in Colorado. Black Mountain Express runs 11 a.m.–4 p.m. and serves High Noon. Colorado Ski Country USA notes that opening. Opening day is past, so that one-day page is off the calendar.
Keystone's official opening day is Friday, Oct. 30, 9 a.m.–4 p.m. The announcement names Schoolmarm and Silver Spoon, a hike-to terrain park via the River Run Gondola and Montezuma Express, and a live DJ after the lifts close. This note does not print a ticket price.
Winter Park's hours page still says the resort will open as soon as possible. It does not name a day. A third-party projection of Oct. 30 is not confirmed, so Winter Park stays off the calendar. Loveland has no official date. OnTheSnow projects Nov. 6. That projection is not an official opening, so Loveland stays off the calendar. OnTheSnow also projects Nov. 6 for Copper, which already matches the day on Copper's own page.
