Colorado’s Loveland, Arapahoe, Wolf Creek ski areas now open

Three ski resorts are now up and running in Colorado, with Loveland and Arapahoe Basin joining Wolf Creek in welcoming snow riders for the 2018-19 season.

Loveland Ski Area opened Saturday with the debut of its first high-speed quad chairlift, named Chet’s Dream after the late Chet Upham, the resort’s longtime owner.

Arapahoe Basin opened Friday with a New Year’s Eve-style countdown over the speaker system.

Last weekend, Wolf Creek became the first Colorado resort to open, but it is operating only on weekends so far.
