Opening Days

Sniagrab was last weekend. New coat and new pants, not that cheap Wal-Mart "snow" garb this year. Now, after such an enticing event, what seems like an endless wait for an ambiguous opening day looms in front of me. I can only hope that this year will resemble the record breaking 2007/8 season with Arapahoe Basin opening earlier than ever on October 10th, and Loveland opening October 16th. That puts me about 30 days away, at best.
Here's what I know so far for opening days, 2008:

Arapahoe Basin - October, 2008. Let's hope it's early. Loveland - TBD. Snowmaking starts September 25th, 2008. Copper Mtn. - November 2nd, 2008 Breckenridge - November 7th, 2008 Keystone - November 7th, 2008 Winter Park - November 19th, 2008 Vail - November 21st, 2008 Monarch - November 21st, 2008 Ski Cooper - November 27th (weekends only), December 19th (7 days/week)

I'm sure the other places will be opening at some point, but I've never been to them and don't really care what they think because I don't have a pass to go there. Also, I'm sure other states besides Colorado have snow seasons as well, but why would you go to those states in the first place?
