With all of the added snow, some may wonder if Sunlight Mountain Resort will be open during the week next week.

The bad news is, they’re not planning to be open during the week next week. But the good news is, Primo lift will be open this weekend, according to Troy Hawks, the communications director at Sunlight. 

Changes of hitting some fresh powder sound like they will be high too. 



“Saturday into Sunday and maybe through Monday, there’s sporadic chances of snowfall throughout that time,” Grand Junction-based National Weather Service Meteorologist Scott Stearns said in a report earlier this week. 

The season opening is only a week away. Be ready for it Dec. 9.



One way to help them maintain steady hours and get a free ski pass is to apply for a job, or inquire about jobs at jobs@sunlightmtn.com. The mountain is hiring and excited to get some new fresh faces at the lifts. 
Additional updates can be found  on the website or on their Facebook page.
