Arapahoe Basin has Started Snow Operations

Home » Local Colorado News » Arapahoe Basin has Started Snow Operations

September 22, 2018 by Kevin W

Two days ago, the moment most of us here in Summit County wait for finally happened. . . Arapahoe Basin has started snow operations!!  Yes.  It’s official.  The snow guns have been blowing over the last few nights when the temperature has dropped low enough.  It’s always hard to part ways with the warmer weather but once the snow starts blowing it’s hard not to think about the season ahead.

Photo from A Basin

Last season, Arapahoe Basin kicked off the season on October 13th and went through June 3rd for another amazing year, lasting 233 days.  Do you know what that means?  It means you need to start thinking about your winter trips and don’t forget the season here in Summit starts early.  With snow making already in process they may even be able to open even earlier than last year.  The aspens are already losing leaves.  Could this be the early season we’ve all been waiting for?  Give us a call at 970-668-6000 and book your winter adventure today.  Come enjoy our favorite time of the year with us!

Locals Tip:

We are currently running a few really great promotions.  Check the website, facebook, or Call one of our local agents and ask about some of our pre-season rates.

Buy our season pass early. . even if you only plan to spend 4 days skiing or snowboarding in the County you will pay off an A basin-Keystone pass priced at $369.  Day rates are currently 110$ at an online deal.  So plan ahead and save some money for all the other fun things to do here during the snow season.

    I highly recommend Summit Express! Everything from the booking experience, flexibility, follow up and experience was AMAZING!! We used a private Summit Express Shuttle on the way to Breckenridge and back to the airport and had a great time. Both drivers, John and Paul were FANTASTIC! They loaded up our suitcases and food, provided water, made sure we were comfortable and were great drivers! They even provided us some fun facts on the way! We were able to connect our music to the shuttle and had a fun drive! They knew the traffic patterns, best bathroom stops and we also stopped for food. We even took the scenic route on the way back because people wanted to and it avoided traffic (and we got to stop for a little break and some pics)! Definitely book with Summit Express!!!

    These people provide the best service beyond anything I could imagine. The driver’s solid attitude gave the Summit Express a reason to be very proud. You could see this man’s unmistakable confidence, pride, and solid and even somewhat entertaining personable approach to doing his job. I really enjoyed the ride although it took hours. Thank you Summit. You cannot get better than this competent, confident, willing provider of the very best service. He was so good that I found myself thinking that his behavior and manner was so very much better than anyone doing his job need to be. This ride was the demonstration of the best kind of pride in one’s work and person I have lately seen in our America.
    The van was exceptional.

    We used Summit Express for our wedding shuttle and had a great experience. Planning with Stephen was easy. He was responsive and clear throughout the process. On the day of, our driver Cory was fantastic. He arrived right on time, the van was super clean, and everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend!

    This is a very accommodating company when traveling from Denver airport to Vail. With multiple calls to move our reservation back due to a flight delay to Denver and then back to our original reservation as we sailed through the airport with our luggage. They notified the driver that we landed in time to make the trip. We had two quick stops on the way to Vail. Dropped off at the Vail Transit Center. This was a very easy way to get from airport to Vail for a very reasonable price. I recommend Summit Express and will take them again if coming to this area of the country.

    Outstanding service at a fair price. Our driver, Jeff, went above and beyond—providing charging options, keeping us hydrated, and treating us with genuine kindness and care. He was not just a driver, but a gracious host who made the entire experience exceptional. And he has a great play list!!!
