I know that you're trying to use this story as an article refuting the fact that 'man made climate change' made be occurring, but no where in your commentary or the article does it say why they are opening so early. The slopes are making snow, not taking advantage of a freak snow fall. It could melt during the week but they still can claim they 'opened first.'
This is a charming tidbit, but does nothing to confirm or disconfirm climate change.
