Eldora, 21 miles west of Boulder, will begin its 2024-25 season at 9 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 7, marketing director Sam Bass wrote in an email.

The new snow, coupled with snowmaking operations and cold temperatures, will allow Eldora to open its Alpenglow chairlift and three intermediate runs – Hornblower, Windmill and International – as well as a small terrain park near the West Wing Lodge, the resort said in a news release known.

No beginner terrain, lessons, lift access, or cross-country ski/snowshoe trails are open.

All tickets and passes must be purchased online at eldora.com.
