Winter Park, Colo., (September 6, 2011) – It is often said that Labor Day is the kick-off for the upcoming ski and ride season, looks like winter agrees. The first dusting of snow for the 2011/12 winter season fell today on the peaks surrounding Winter Park Resort. Excitement for opening day, November 16, is beginning to rise. I am sure that the snow will thicken as we head into the evening. What a beautiful day it will be tomorrow!
