A-Basin To Open Sunday October 17th
Araphoe Basin Set to Open
The plan is to open Arapahoe Basin Ski Area this weekend.
A-Basin stated it will open at 8:30 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 17. While A-Basin is not the first to open in Colorado (Wolf Creek will open Saturday, Oct. 16) it will be the first for Summit County. Maybe Keystone is holding out!?
“We anticipate a normal operating season and look forward to welcoming you back for skiing and snowboarding through June. We have the longest winter season in Colorado! “
A-Basin will open with the Black Mountain Express lift, to a single run for opening day: High Noon, an intermediate trail. A-Basin hopes to stay open into June 2022.
Just over a foot of natural snow that fell will allow them to open much earlier than last years Nov 9th date!
