Snowmaking Update, Saturday Afternoon

Saturday afternoon and the temps are starting to fall as the sun goes down. Today was an epic day for opening weekend with lots of trails powder and sunshine. With more great snowmaking tonight... there will be even more terrain opened for Sunday... yes, more trails!

If everything goes according to what I plan, we will add Heuga, Dropoff, Racer's, Gun Hill, West Side Glide, Gateway, Lower Broadway, Park Ave, and Upper K27.

This will make a total of 34 trails. Not bad for opening weekend and with great conditions powder and more powder. Make the most of it and get out and enjoy our hard work! --Bruce

The snow was great! Kudos to the snowmakers. Now if only the lifts would work as well...

What is the problem with the Quad? I got stuck twice, once on Saturday for 15 minutes and once on Sunday for 45 minutes. How about a new lift for the 5o anniversary of Hunter. I've skied here since 1963.

This economy is not really conducive to spending millions of dollars replacing charlifts. When the economy stabilizes, we have some plans in mind. Until then, we are doing the best to make due with what we have. The quad engine was rebuilt last year, so we are doing everything possible to keep it running efficiently and to the best of its ability.
