After a dismal winter the question on everyone’s mind is: When will Squaw close? Rumors are flying, with everything from two weeks out, to the first of May, to a weekend only schedule. Here’s a breakdown of a few scenarios I foresee:
The Early Close
- Squaw shuts their doors on April 8th
- It snows all of April
- Riots ensue
- This could be the scene at Squaw given an early close
The Weekend Schedule:
- Squaw closes their doors midweek starting next weekend
- Still much less than ideal
- Locals at a loss what to do midweek
- Riots still probable
KSL Acts Normal and Closes May 1st
- Everyone is content
- Squaw records the biggest April to date (don’t worry, I put an order in for loads of snow)
- Smiles abroad
The Late Close:
- It snows all of April
- It continues to snow into May
- Squaw remains open through May and reopens for 4th of July shred fest
I don’t know about you peoples, but I’m very much into the final option. At this point, it’s anyone’s guess as to what will happen. With a winter that has failed to turn out thus far, but with the potential to snow 10 feet in 5 days, we may have pow, mank, or maybe no snow at all this spring.
What do you guys think? Snow and lifts a’ spinnin’? Or Will we see our beloved mountain shutdown a month ahead of schedule?
