Arizona Snowbowl Celebrates Earliest Season Opening in 86 Years Amidst Early Snowfall and Snowmaking

In a stroke of cold luck, Arizona Snowbowl has kicked off its season well ahead of schedule, opening its doors, or rather, its slopes to eager ski and snowboard enthusiasts on Nov. 8, owing largely to a generous early November snowfall, with a significant assist from their snowmaking tech. According to
