I just spent all day watching Jersey Shore in my ski gear, and wishing for snow. Unfortunatley, my mountain doesn't open until the start of November, what about you?

Probably late November, but there will probably be a rail-jam on Halloween.

The mountain usually opens in December, it's also filled with gapers and rocks then. And the rails are locked. By late December we have a rail that we set up ourselves cause our "park crew" gets paid to chill in the lodge. And there's usually a week where we have a decent park until someone decides it needs to be changed so that everything is ride on.

Well, i'm still got a week left in Argentina, so that'll be the end of this season (09/10). I live in Colorado, our season (10/11) starts in October at Abasin or Loveland. I'm thinking early this year, maybe a bday present 10/18.
