App Ski Mtn. Hopes To Open Thanksgiving Day; Beech, Hawksnest To Follow & Sugar Already Open

By Friday, all of the winter resorts should be open for skiing, snowboarding and tubing. Sugar Mountain Resort was the first ski resort in North Carolina to open. It opened on Monday with an 8-to-24 inch base of snow.

The weather warmed up a bit this week, but snowmaking temperatures are expected to return on Wednesday night, and all of the resorts in the High Country are ready to make the most of the cold weather.

Appalachian Ski Mtn. had planned to open on Wednesday, but the temperature throw a kink in the Blowing Rock resort’s plans.
