Q: Will there be snow/skiing for Thanksgiving?
A: Most likely. The mountain is now opening EARLY November (the weekend of the 7th!!). This means that Vail Corporation believes there will be snow and is willing to bet big on it. If there is not a lot of natural snow - they will be making snow like crazy. Great for beginner and intermediate skiers / boarders!
Q: Will there still be snow in mid April?
A: YES. There will be snow and the mountain will be open till late April (the 20th will be the last day they are open).

The downside is the snow will not be the light fluffy stuff Breckenridge is known for. It will be a little heaver due to the warmth. You will typically not being skiing 'out-of-bounds, but instead on groomed runs...
