Boreal Mountain Resort will reopen Friday for Halloween weekend.

Colder temperatures on Donner Summit have enabled Boreal to crank up its snowmaking machines, marketing manager Jon Slaughter said in a press release.

The resort will offer its traditional early season intermediate trail via the Castle Peak Quad Chairlift, plus jib features for park riders.

“As an avid boarder, I am looking forward to winter just as much as our customers. Our goal is to get skiers and boarders on the snow as quickly as possible,” slaughter said. “We’re taking advantage of this cold front to blow snow so we can get people riding this Halloween” he added.

Boreal will be open from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. beginning Friday for weekends only (Friday – Sunday) until further notice. Night operations will begin Friday, Nov. 27, at 3:30 p.m. More lifts and runs will continue to open as snow and weather conditions permit. Resort services will include all base facilities including food and beverage, ski/snowboard rentals, lessons and retail.
