Arapahoe Basin Ski Area in Colorado turned into a ghost town on a powder day due to extreme weather, with high winds and road closures prompting the closure of the mountain for the first time in 5 years. Despite missing a day of operations, the decision prioritized employee and visitor safety. Avalanche mitigation efforts by the Colorado Department of Transportation and the Colorado Avalanche Information Center helped ensure the resort's safety for reopening the next day, leading to one of the busiest days of the season.
