Whiteface Opens Friday, 11/15 for Season Passholders and Saturday, 11/16 & Sunday, 11/17 for all!

The wait is over! Opening day is here!
While Mother Nature has taken her time, she has hooked us up with cold days, and the guns (and our amazing snowmaking team) have worked around the clock to cover the Summit.
 
Whiteface opens Friday, November 15th for Season Passholders only! The Face Lift and Summit Quad will open at 10:00am and last ride up the Facelift at 3:00pm. Skiing will take place on the Summit Quad, and all skiers & riders will need to download on the Face Lift to return to the base area.
 
We anticipate Riva Ridge, Paron’s Run, Ilmar’s Alley, Excelsior, Lower Northway, and Summit Express will be groomed and open.
