The Colorado Ski Season has begun and Loveland Ski Area is ready to shine and show off the Colorado goods, Snows Perfect State! Fresh snow has been falling and some great snowmaking will get this year off to an excellent start.

Chet’s Dream will run Opening Day from 8:30 am until 4:00 pm on Saturday and will offer skiers and riders access to one top-to-bottom run covered from tree-to-tree with an 18-inch base. The trails Catwalk, Mambo, and Home Run make up this Opening Day run which is over a mile in length and nearly one thousand vertical feet.

 

“This year Opening Day is even more special as Chet’s Dream, our new high-speed lift, will carry the first skiers and riders of its tenure here at Loveland,” continued Goodell. “This new lift will provide our guests with quicker and more reliable access to some of our most popular terrain while honoring ski industry pioneer and Loveland patriarch, Chester R. (Chet) Upham, Jr.”

Loveland Ski Area also opened on October 20 last season. Loveland’s snowmakers will continue to make snow on Home Run and around the base of Chet’s Dream this week before moving on to opening additional terrain.

 

Loveland Ski Area will be open 7 days a week until Closing Day in early May. Lift operation hours are 9:00 am until 4:00 pm on weekdays and 8:30 am until 4:00 pm on weekends and designated holidays. Early season lift tickets are $65 for adults and $31 for children 6-14.

 

We can’t wait. Our gear is out and ready to ride through the 2018/19 Colorado Ski Season.
