Forecast today: Clear skies
- Max temp: 6.8 °c
- Min temp: -2.9 °c
With a summit altitude of almost 4000m, snow reliability is almost guaranteed at Arapahoe Basin.
It is regularly first to open each year in October and regularly stays open right through until June, giving access to a compact but very varied ski area. The addition of the Montezuma and Beavers chairlifts in the past few years has hugely expanded the terrain on offer and there’s some great steep skiing to be found when the snow is good.
There’s no accommodation on the hill, but the base lodge is very popular and serves up good food, regularly hosts live music and comes to life in particular on warm spring afternoons. Stay down the valley at nearby Keystone or base yourself a little further away at Breckenridge – there’s a shuttle bus linking all three.

Snow Overview
USA
Updated 02/05
Mild conditions dominate over the Left Coast, with plenty of fine, dry and bright conditions thanks to high pressure over the region. A few flurries of snow and rain will move across the region, and Colorado will see temperatures fall and up to 30cm of snow moving in to start the week.
On the Ice Coast, warm temperatures dominate with plenty of rain to boot, all throughout this weekend and the new week.
Thus concludes our snow overviews for the 2024/25 season; thank you to everyone who has tuned in, and we look forward to seeing you again next season!
