Ahead of opening day, JHMR reported that continuous snowmaking, 52 inches of snowfall on the summit and 27 inches of snowfall mid-mountain had created “coverage across much of the north side of the resort.”

JHMR cautioned visitors to be mindful of early season conditions, to stay out of closed areas and to watch for hazards. As more snow arrives, the resort expects to open more lifts.
