Hidden Valley Ski Resort is now set to open for the season on Tuesday, Dec. 23.

Visitor experience team lead Chris Dodds said that the rain, warm weather and wind impacted the ability to make snow and get the resort ready for winter.

The initial hope was that the ski resort would open on Saturday, Dec. 20.

Refunds will be automatically issued to day pass holders who purchased tickets for days before Dec. 23.

Hours on opening day will be 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., which will be the standard hours for the ski resort.
