That's what I'm wondering. IKON did not really give a date range. Now I'm wondering about Sierra at Tahoe, Mt Rose, or Sugar Bowl.... I imagine they will close as well.
ETA: Sugar Bowl closed
Yup...this just sucks....sorry but....I've a friend that has a Air BnB.. She's losing $2000 this week. Ontario school break.

I was wondering the same thing. My bet is that they'll close, too.

I would figure yes, at least short term. But one never knows.
I'm sufficiently freaked out at this point I'd likely only exercise outdoors anyway! Walking, jogging, hiking. And for me, indoor fun of cleaning and packing.
It wouldn't surprise me if the State of Vermont closed the remaining open ski resorts. That's what happened in Colorado. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if the Vail and Alterra shut down was a reaction to the knowledge that an order from the governor was coming.

I agree. I won’t be surprised if all the ski resorts close in US like several of the European countries. But I am hopeful that some will reopen at a later time in April or May.
