For many skiers and riders, the Epic Pass is just the ticket for enjoying a multitude of lift served downhill fun. Some though, scoff at it as a gimmick. But lets look under the hood and see why it can be a good thing for some of you! It’s in its fifth season now. So, it obviously is a winner!
Easter Sunday has been the traditional last day of the ski season. But this year, Easter Sunday is April 24th. That means, all across the country, there is some great April skiing to be had. While some ski areas won’t make it to the 24th, many are. The mountain regionals of New England, The Rockies and The Sierra have all received copious amounts of March snowfall.
Here is a rundown of ski area closing dates that we have been able to compile. If you don’t see your favorite slope listed, go to their website and see what they plan.
In addition, lodging prices are the lowest of the season. When you combine those prices with the coupons offered at each resort, you really owe it to yourself to head to the mountains at least one more time before we call this season a wrap.

A fall snow storm with an expected punch has hit Colorado’s central
mountains today. With this storm, some resorts could see up to a foot or
more of snow.
Loveland and Arapahoe Basin, two Colorado ski resorts that are in a
continuous battle to be the first to open every year, will greatly
appreciate this new fresh powder to top their persistent snow making
efforts. These ski areas have been blasting their slopes with manmade snow
for the last couple of weeks in an all out race to get the coveted bragging
rights and media attention that goes with “first to open in the country”.
