News from the ski resorts:

BBMR is gearing up in preparation for the winter season. Although Bear Mountain and Snow Summit do not have a designated opening date, our target opening date is typically mid November and even earlier depending on weather conditions. We have the largest snow making system and we're ready to start them up as soon as the weather remains cold enough. Each resort covers hundreds of acres of ski runs each season with an average of three to five feet of solid man-made snow, the equivalent of about ten feet of natural snow. So no matter what the temperature is in the city BBMR will have snow all winter long! THINK SNOW!
