    How late do you think A-Basin will stay open this year?

    I know that the weather can do 1,000 different things within the next two months. But, what do ya think?

    I just heard from their snowmaking director that they won't be closing this Summer at all. With so many people paying for lift tickets in the middle of July, they're going to be able to run a very successful business up there.

    Yeah, I also heard that A-basin wants to get connected with the Breck-to-Vail gondola system too. Construction on that starts this Summer.
