I would guess Gunstock. Someone facebooked a friend to say he should go over there today since it was open. The levels of irresponsible behaviors makes me livid (and more than a little scared).
Pretty sure it is Sugarbush. They were still open Sunday. (also sign looks like is say Castlerock Pub)

I can buy that. I just knew gunstock was open today.
And just like that, closing Wednesday

A little local area in the hills above L.A. just before Big Bear (Alterra owned) called Snow Valley just closed today They say they will continue grooming and making snow (??) in hopes of re-opening but I think thats a huge waste of time. So many comments on their IG about how the should have stayed open. People are idiots

I’m not sure why they ever said a week to begin with, not sure who in the world thinks it would be fine to resume operations of anything by next Monday.. Good that they got the message out though because I’ve seen a lot of people grasping to that date thinking things were reopening.

Mt. High in Southern California was advertising 50% off lift tickets a few days ago for Ikon and Epic pass holders after CO shut down all the resorts. I thought it was extremely irresponsible to try to get as many people to their mountain as possible. And there will be people going and there goes social distancing. I never liked Mt. High and dislike them even more now. I am not sure if they are still doing that now with N. Cal shutting down...
Just checked their website. They closed yesterday but mentioned they’d reevaluate on 3/20 and fully intend to re-open? On their fb page, they mentioned they got 5 FEET of snow...what’s the point?!

I think he still does own it. If not him directly, his family does. Uncool.

Waterville Valley in NH is still open and they were advertising $17 tickets today for St. Patrick's Day.. Shameful!

Agreed, I believe he is still very much invested in it with his family. I've seen it referenced all over Facebook still the last several days as people are wondering how the heck they can still be open.

Heavenly, Whistler-Blackcomb, and Breckenridge MAY open in late April - early May depending on containment of virus and snow.

Well, NH is an outlier. Bretton Woods was open today, March 18. So was Cannon. And I assume Waterville Valley based on earlier posts. As someone on another ski forum commented, NH motto is "Live Free or Die."

Good afternoon everyone. We are currently open and the lifts are spinning, and we are planning on continuing operations tomorrow. However, the safety and welfare of our associates and guests is of utmost concern. With that in mind, this is what we are doing: The lower level of the Base Lodge will be open for access to restrooms. Outdoor seating is available. Tickets can be purchased at the outside window. 3 lifts will be spinning.

Alarmingly all 3 resorts and Gunstock are still open! We have vouchers left but do not plan to use them.
