Aspen Snowmass reported up to 8 inches in 24 hours as of Thursday morning across all four mountains — the highest snow totals of any Colorado ski resort following Wednesday night’s storm.
Breckenridge Ski Resort, Copper Mountain and Beaver Creek Resort all received about 4 inches of fresh snow, according to OpenSnow, with Vail Mountain recording about 2 inches of fresh snow.
Arapahoe Basin Ski Area and Keystone Resort, the only two ski resorts currently open in the state, along with Winter Park Resort each only received about 1 inch.
The snow hits just weeks before Opening Day at Aspen Mountain and Snowmass, which is slated for Nov. 26. Aspen Highlands and Buttermilk are scheduled to open on Dec. 12.
