Get your snowboards ready: Over 8″at Breckinridge, 7″at Keystone, and 6″at Vail and Beaver Creek.

While Philly gets stuck with 70 degree October days, our friends in Colorado get a winter snow advisory–the best news for any snowboarder. Another storm heads through the square state later this week, too. We may or may not be planning a trip. Most opening days are still about a month away, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get excited. Or build a kicker in your front lawn. Each of these resorts received a slight makeover, so there’s plenty to look forward to. Also, when are we going to see snowboarders at Penn’s Landing? Or FDR?
