Most Popular Ski & Snowboard Resorts in November
Killington Ski Resort
Located in Vermont and nicknamed “the Beast of the East,” Killington Ski Resort features 212 trails across seven different peaks. It’s one of the largest ski resorts on the east coast and consistently boasts an opening date in November. While its sheer size draws several skiers to its slopes, Killington also boasts a lively après ski scene and delicious options for food and drinks.
Copper Mountain
With close proximity to both Vail and Denver, Copper Mountain is a popular destination among November visitors to Colorado. The resort devotes nearly half of its skiable terrain to beginners, making it one of the top spots for novice skiers. When it’s time to hit the slopes, green ski runs are separate from the blue and black, so beginners truly have an area of their own.
Arapahoe Basin Ski Area
For an extended ski season this November, head to Arapahoe Basin, or A-Basin, as the locals call it. While the majority of ski resorts in Colorado close sometime in early April, A-Basin boasts a notably longer season. The resort typically opens in November and remains open until June, occasionally July.
Sunshine Village
Located inside the borders of Banff National Park, Sunshine Village features some incredible ski slopes along the Canadian Rockies. While the resort tends to be crowded, you truly can’t go wrong with a visit to Sunshine Village in November. The resort also offers ski-in/ski-out accommodations and modern amenities like a heated gondola.
Jay Peak Resort
Jay Peak Resort boasts some of the earliest snow in the east and offers 81 trails for you to enjoy it. While the highlight of the resort is certainly the slopes, the resort has tons to offer off the mountain, too. This family-friendly resort boasts an indoor waterpark, climbing gym, fat biking, a spa, and a wide array of food and beverage options.
