Ski season has started!!!

In typical early season fashion, Arapahoe Basin in Colorado was the first major ski area to open this past weekend on October 29th. Hundreds of skiers rolled into the lot bright and early for the full opening day experience, dressed to impress on Halloweekend!

A Basin local and J skis rider Zach Ryan filled us in on all the vibezzz from opening morning…

Zach and his crew did what they do best and made 50 breakfast sandwiches to hand out to anyone who showed up early to wait in the lift line. +5000 GNAR points!!!

The only thing that can make opening day better? A fresh dumping of snow the night before!

Zach catching early season air on The Escalator ski. I'm not jealous at all... 😅

My new heroes, Cole and Pat, dished out fresh coffee from Mountain Dweller (the best spot in town) to help people forget how early they woke up to go skiing, keeping vibezzz high all day!
