Onthesnow.com and teton gravity research say that ski resorts are still open in like switzerland and europe. So are they actually still open or the websites just arn’t updated. If it is true than how, because in the USA, the ski season pretty much ended in may, and the longest it lasted was july, but now its august and, the majority of europeon ski resorts are open.

    The altitude of the mountain ranges is very high in Europe. Mountain ranges such as the Alps are very high and have snow on them all year round. These ski resorts in Europe are built in these high mountain ranges allowing them to stay open year-round.

    Although, with climate change and rising temperatures, scientists expect the resorts will no longer be able to run year round as early as 2025. modano_man
