Just in time for the holiday, New England resorts are giving skiers and snowboarders plenty to be thankful for.

After an anxious few weeks in early November when mild temperatures remained pervasive, colder weather settled in for Thanksgiving week. And the ski areas of the region are pouncing at the opportunity to open for the season.

Killington, which is hosting the Audi FIS Ski World Cup on November 26-27, has been open since late October. Now, others are joining the Vermont resort.

Here’s a list of several New England resorts that are either planning to open or have already opened during the holiday week:
