Over 20 Ski Resorts Extend 2022-23 Season Due to Tremendous Amounts of Snow

Late-season powder day potential continues to skyrocket thanks to the continued snowstorms we’ve seen this late into the year and their impact on extending seasons for many resorts. While the spring skiing season is shaping up to be a solid one with more storms on the way, we’ve rounded up a running list of which resorts have already announced their plans to extend this year’s season. It’s worthwhile to note that these dates are tentative, specifically if they get additional snow which could keep their ski seasons going for even longer than they’re currently predicting. See below for the current list, as of 4/12/23, and bring on the endless winter season!
