Alpy is open sunday too!
Don’t forget Alaska!! We still have a ton of snow at Alyeska, open every weekend friday-sunday through the end of May!
Yeah, whazzup?! Alyeska has a ton of snow and is still spinning Friday-Sunday through Memorial Day. And we didn’t even set any snow records, at least not at the resort!
Timberline remains open to the public all summer. May 28th is when Winter/Spring season is over (end of passes – bought mine Nov 5th for almost 7 months of riding = $449).
Chimney’s still open
Alpental has Cinco de drinko and the next day for hungover riding!
Thanks for all the updates on these dates. fixing them now.
A-Basin just announced their last day will be May 6th. Looking forward to a better 2012/2013 season.
Love it! Alpy will be a great time on the 5th! Crystal has lots of snow left. Shit, got like 6 inches last night at Crystal!
How is Crystal not a winner? We’ll get the last laugh whilst skiing in July. You guys should stop doing “Top” lists.
Mammoth is open daily till May 28th, not the 31st. Doubtful they will extend the season beyond that unless May is cool, which its not forecasted to be.
Yeah Alyeska!!!
A-Basin is closing this weekend.
Grouse Mountain is still open on weekends for ‘a few more weeks’
Go SNOWBIRD
Mount Bohemia in Michigan’s U.P. plans on opening May 4 and 5. Snow forecast for Friday and Saturday could bring our April powder weekends into May.
