Colorado’s High Country saw the most significant snowstorm yet of the season this weekend, with some ski areas netting nearly two feet of fresh powder as of early-morning Monday, Oct. 21. 

The southwestern San Juan Mountain Range saw the most snow accumulation between Friday and Sunday, with around 10-30 inches in the highest-elevation areas, according to the National Weather Service. 

Wolf Creek reported 22 inches of snow over the weekend and plans to open Tuesday, Oct. 22 — making it the first ski area of the 2024-25 season to turn its lifts.
