It might not be long until Mother Nature is ready, either.
Snow is expected in some parts of Colorado this weekend, including as low as the foothills.
Loveland Ski Area has also had their guns out already this season, and even has seen a little bit of snow. They tweeted their own photo of the mountain last weekend.
Hello Mother Nature. Ski season is right around the corner. #racetoopen #lovelandskiarea #cowx
