"Jackson Hole November 2010: Biggest Opening in History
In an unprecedented move Jackson Hole Mountain Resort announces the wall to wall, top to bottom opening of the mountain, this Saturday the 27th of November. Never before in the recorded history of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort (JHMR) has so much snow fallen so early with totals snowfall tipping the 118” mark. We are calling it Snowvember, to be followed by Deepcember. As one of the biggest storms in recent history continues to rage in Teton Village, the mountain is preparing to open all lifts including the Aerial Tram and the Gondola. This will be accompanied by the opening of all major runs including the Hobacks and Lower Faces. Jerry Blann, JHMR President adds “This is the beginning of a season without equal in Jackson Hole history. We anticipate being able to open the entire mountain in November—this has never been seen before.”

While it is certain that there will be enough snow to open the entire mountain, the intensity of the storm will need to subside in order to make the complete opening possible. "

It's deep!

Whitefish, MT just opened yesterday in a similar fashion. I felt guilty mowing down so much powder to open up trails, but still had a lot of fun doing it!
