Snowmaking Operations Begin
Ski resorts in Colorado, including A-Basin, Keystone, and Loveland, have started their snowmaking operations, signaling the countdown to ski season.
Crews at these resorts work at night and in the early morning to make snow, driven by their passion for the ski and snowboard community.
Our snowmakers are people who are passionate about the ski and snowboard community... They'll go to South America, and they'll hike fourteeners to ski every month of the year.
Snowmakers use digital monitors to measure wet-bulb temperature, which combines air temperature and humidity levels, to optimize snow production.
The first round of snowmaking took place at Arapahoe Basin, Keystone Resort, and Loveland Ski Area, generating excitement for the upcoming ski season.
