Arapahoe Basin ski area officials announced that Sunday would be its opening day for the 2005-2006 ski season.
Friday night's snowmaking efforts were exceptional, readying the ski area's opening for today. The Exhibition chair will open to the public at 8:30 a.m. today and skiers and riders can look forward to a 12- to 20-inch base on the High Noon run. Adult lift tickets on opening day will be $38, youth tickets age 15 to 19 will be $35, and child tickets age 6-14 will be $17.
Ski and board rentals, food and beverage, the 6th Alley bar and retail shop will be open and available to the public. Ski school lessons will begin when the Molly Hogan Learning Center opens later in November.
Local radio station KSMT will be on site in the base area with a live remote, playing music and handing out give-aways.
Pass sales for A-Basin's Bonus Pass program are available while supplies last for $239. The Bonus Pass holder receives unlimited skiing or riding at A-Basin for the 2005-2006 ski season and five non-transferable ski days at Keystone or Breckenridge. One of those days can be used at Vail or Beaver Creek (some restrictions apply on the Vail/Beaver Creek ski day).
A-Basin only passes are also available by calling 1-888-Arapahoe or online at http://www.arapahoebasin.com/.
