Included in the list of those ringing in the new year, ski resorts. Monarch Mountain has joined the list of resorts to already be looking forward to 2020, with plenty to anticipate for the end of the year too.

For those already enjoying the snow at Monarch, the 2019/2020 season has already given them more than they could ask for.

"It's been a great start to the season," said VP of sales and marketing Dan Bender.

"This year we've been blessed with great snowfall."

And when it comes to skiing in the new year, there's no sign of the fun slowing down.

"We're following up a record season that Monarch had last year. We're right on pace to match that one or bear it, so we're very optimistic for a great season," Bender added.

But it's not just THIS season the guys at Monarch are looking forward to. The 2020/2021 season looks to bring with it some nice surprises too.

"Right now, we're in the middle of our beetle kill infestation, so over the last few seasons we've taken tens of thousands of trees out per year. We're going to take out another ten thousand or so this seasons. That keeps our hands pretty full. That will all help new terrain open up for next year," Bender said.
