This year Snowmass and Aspen Mountain are scheduled to open on Thanksgiving Day, with Aspen Highlands and Buttermilk following suit in early December.
The most recent winter storm at Silverton Mountain, Colorado also loaded up the mountain with as much as 2-3 feet of fresh snow!

This year's official start of the ski season at Silverton Mountain is slated for December 21, 2013 but if the snow keeps up at this pace that date could be pushed up.

Located in the Western side of the US in the Southern Rockies. Colorado is home to many a household name of resort including the likes of Vail, Breckenridge, Aspen. The resorts are high in altitude and very snowsure, and very straight forward to get to if you're flying into Denver.
Aspen
Sits right on the edge of town. Some surprisingly good steep runs, but zero freeride opportunities and for a park you best head to Buttermilk or snowmass
Silverton Mountain
Steep, lots of snow, you can hire the entire mountain!
