Okay. one more weekend. This is more or least a complet picture of almost all Eastern areas that are looking to open next weekend. Here are the dates (by province and dates) as of Monday morning. Many of these areas are going to be open on weekends only.
Some areas are extending, some are refusing. The “lemon” award so far goes to RCR with Stoneham closing last weekend and Mont Ste-Anne not charging their closing day of April 27. There was a quote on a weekend paper.

Update information from Mont Alta QC (late April or early May), Mont Cascades and Vorlage (April 13) also added Mont Miller (open next weekend, but no closing date) + information for Eastern ski areas in Canada from Ontario, New Bruswick and Newfoundland & Labrador.
Now, I don’t think I’m leaving anyone out.
There are few changes. A few ski areas decided not to re-open for this weekend. It’s been really warm this week plus forecast is calling for some precipitations (rain or snow), so instead of running lift for almost no one, so some are calling it a season.
I’ll try to update the list on Friday evening.
This is what I know now (I did a quick check, especially for my locals). Edelweiss QC, Cascades QC, Gunstock NH, Hunter NY
Other news:
Bretton Woods: April 20
Sugarbush: April 27 (maybe May 5)
