Time to Ski
It’s hard to believe that the ski season is here, already. Arapahoe Basin is opening today – beating Loveland, finally, in being the ski resort in North America to open first, for the 06-07 season. Reports are that A-Basin has an 18-inch base and is open for intermediate skiing.
Although, there has not been any new ‘real’ snow, in the last few days, it’s still snow people! With 2 trails open and 1 lift operating, I imagine it could be fairly busy. So, if you’ve nothing better to do today and feel like hauling out your ski gear, it could be a fun day up on the slope(s). It’s a shame I have to work today; otherwise I’d head up and do a few runs.
Ticket prices for today, Friday the 13th, are $43 for adults. Get ’em while they’re cheap.
In other news, Denver’s workforce has suddenly been inflicted with a massive epidemic of “sick”. ;)
Now that you mention it, I’m not feeling very well. *Cough*
I thought I would be breaking the news to my wife, but today at lunch before I could.
“Ski season started today. They opened!”
So much for that.
My husband is planning on going this weekend or sometime soon… the minute we saw snow on Mt. Evans the kids were screaming LET’S SKI!!!
