SKI SEASON IS HERE: Wolf Creek Ski Area will hold what is believed to be its earliest opening ever - by one day - on Friday. At least 57 inches of snow have fallen since September.

That's a week earlier than the area's projected November 3 opening.

Purgatory at Durango Mountain Resort has set a Thanksgiving day opening date and Telluride Ski Area has set Wednesday, November 22 as its official opening.

At Wolf Creek all facilities - ski school, rental and sports shops, Wolf Pup Building, Wolf Creek Lodge and the Pathfinder Bar are ready for the opening day. Forest Service Road 391 is groomed for cross-country skiing from the end of Alberta parking lot to Alberta Lake dam. Wolf Creek is celebrating its 30th year of free cross-country skiing.
