After a record breaking season, this last blast of “Mayuary” weather dumped an additional 13 inches of snow on Breckenridge Ski Resort prompting a Tuesday announcement it will extend the 2018/2019 season beyond Memorial Day and will be open on weekends through June 9. Here’s the official statement from Breck:

“It has been one of the best winter seasons I can remember during my more than 25-year career, and we are thrilled to keep it going for our guests and passholders,” said John Buhler, vice president and chief operating officer at Breckenridge Ski Resort.
During the two additional weekends, operations will continue to be based out of Peak 7, with access to primarily advanced- and expert-level terrain, via the Independence SuperChair.
“With more than 450 inches of snow so far this season, we are excited to offer skiers and riders another chance to get out and experience the incredible spring skiing and riding conditions,” Buhler added.”
