What will be open tomorrow? It looks like they can blow snow the next several nights based on this forecast...

It is amazing how quickly Belleayre went from having leaves on the trees to snow covered bare-tree slopes! Compare today's pic-of-the-day screen cap (in Catskill's original post) with this one which was taken only 10 days ago!

I called Belleayre admin this morning; they said Lower Onteora would be the only open run. From that pic though it looks like more could be skiable.

Maybe some rails on Lower Wanatuska (is that the trail to the left of Onteora, I can never remember they are all the same haha)... hiking only I'm guessing for that as they never spread the whales and they melted before they could cover the whole hill.

"Lift tickets will be at the early season price of $37 per person. We will be running a BOGO special this weekend. Buy One Ticket Now and then bring that ticket back during late season and get a ticket of equal or lesser value for Free. Midweek Season Passes will also be valid this weekend." -Belleyre.com

Buy one get one free for anyone without a pass....

Also, now they are blowing snow on Yahoo, Wanatuska, Onteora top to bottom, as well as Iroquois. I'll be up there in an hour!

Today was nice. Tomorrow should be more of the same, just Onteora mid down.

Plan for next weekend is Onteora top-bottom and Wanatuska top-bottom. Hopefully there will be good snowmaking weather

It is looking pretty good! Bet top-to-bottom by Thanksgiving weekend!

I should definitely be there the Monday after Thanksgiving and possibly during the weekend too. I already can't wait for more skiing.
