I normally post my list of open areas/closing date prior to the 1st weekend in April. April 1st being on a Monday, Easter Monday and day off for some, here is a previous of those that might open in April. Over two dozen ski areas are closing this weekend, while some others might make to April, if only to this Monday. A few of them have already mentioned that Monday April 1st was going to be their closing day.
Overall 2023-24 was the Winter that didn’t happen. Warmest winter on record in much, if not all, Eastern North America. Easter weekend is for some areas a benchmark to reach in their ski season; despite an early Easter, many feel short by a few weekends. The last storm and cold late March in part of the East has definitely save a few from closing in March. I’ll post a longer version when I officially started counting down the season prior to next weekend.
