Loveland Ski Area Begins Snowmaking
LOVELAND SKI AREA, Colo. (CBS4) - The race to open has begun as snowmaking gets underway at ski areas.
Loveland announced Friday morning that they flipped the switch and began making snow overnight. Snow guns at the ski resort were ready to go on Oct. 2, but have been waiting for proper weather conditions.
Loveland Ski Area always competes with Arapahoe Basin (and sometimes a few other resorts) for the honor of being the first to open for the season in Colorado. They have not yet announced an opening date.
Copper Mountain began snowmaking on Oct. 4, and has a projected opening day of Nov. 6.
