What is the earliest that ski resorts will be opening and which ones will be opening first? I'm trying to plan a college visit and figured i might as well get some skiing in while i was at it
thanks

Some resorts will have a patch of snow on the ground with a couple of rails that you can hike by around Halloween, but you probably won't see chairs running til mid November.
