ARAPAHOE BASIN, Colo. (CBS4)- The first day of Fall is Thursday but that's not keeping Arapahoe Basin from getting ready for Winter.

Last year, the ski area didn't start making snow until Oct. 21 because of the unseasonably warm temperatures.

In the past, A-Basin has started making snow as year as Sept. 18.
