New resort openings have been relatively rare over the past two decades, but several notable North American facilities have debuted. Skeetawk Ski Area opened in 2020 in Palmer, Alaska, 52 miles northeast of Anchorage; its name derives from the Dena'ina word Shk'ituk't meaning "where we slide down." Skeetawk offers one lift, about 30 skiable acres, a dozen trails, one terrain park, catskiing access to hundreds of backcountry acres, and limited weekend and select-evening hours. Cherry Peak opened in winter 2015–16 in Cherry Canyon, Utah, averages over 320 inches of snow, provides 400+ acres and four lifts, and offers night skiing with affordable day and night pass pricing. Big Snow opened in December 2019 in East Rutherford, New Jersey, as an indoor, year-round real-snow facility.
