snowfall with the first serious system of the season coming in last night and this morning. This storm is bringing welcome winter weather to the area dropping approximately four fresh inches last night, another two to four today, and eight to 16 inches is forecast over the next two days. These ideal conditions will allowed CBMR to begin snowmaking operations in the early morning hours of November 5th. Operations are on track for the coming ski season which kicks off on opening day, November 26th - a mere 21 days away.

"The weather appeared to switch from fall to winter overnight bringing snow and cold temperatures making for prime conditions to start the snowmaking process. While there is going to be plenty of snow from Mother Nature, we can sure help out with the base. We will be concentrating our efforts on Lower keystone to Warming House Hill and the Red Lady Lift to start. With the help of the Muellers' recent investment in snowmaking equipment and infrastructure, we are expecting some great results." With new snow predicted and improved snowmaking capabilities, early season skiing should be spectacular this year. Don't miss opening day on November 26th, 2008.
