A ski season is a period when skiing, snowboarding and other alpine sports are viable in a ski resort. The season corresponds to when ski lifts are running and lift passes are available. Depending on the latitude and altitude of the resort, the season will typically run from early to mid-winter until mid- to late spring. The snow season can change drastically from year to year and mountain to mountain.[1] Ideally, the season will be over before the thaw begins.
