Copper Mountain had 14 inches of new snow to play in Wednesday morning, and our photographer Mark Fox just had to get out and have a look.
Meanwhile, Vail Mountain announced its opening day Friday will feature 1,150 acres of terrain – quite a bit more than they’d announced earlier this week. Beginning at 9 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 19, skiers and snowboarders will have access to the following lifts and portions of terrain in these areas on Vail Mountain:
Avanti Express Lift (#2)
Wildwood Express Lift (#3)
Mountaintop Express Lift (#4)
Game Creek Express Lift (#7)
Born Free Express Lift (#8)
Northwoods Express Lift (#11)
Little Eagle Lift (#15)
Vista Bahn Express Lift (#16)
Eagle Bahn Gondola (#19)
Additional terrain will open to the public as soon as conditions and weather permit. Both the Lionshead and Vail Village base areas will be open including lift ticket/season pass and ski school offices. The Small World Nursery will be open at the Golden Peak Children’s Center.
Eagle’s Nest, Buffalo’s, Wildwood and the Look Ma level of Mid-Vail will be open for on-mountain dining beginning Friday. Express Lift at Mountain Plaza will also be open.
