SNOWMAKING PROGRESS

Everyone,

Great snowmaking conditions with overnight lows in the 20's.  The snowmaking system is running incredibly well, allowing us to pump more water than ever before.  Overnight, we passed the 5,500 gpm mark beating our previous system max of 4,000 gpm.  The additional water allowed us to make snow on Eagles Swoop, Dobie, both cross trails, Potato Patch, Tyro, Sunrise, The Plunge and The Highlands.  More that 160 guns running at one time!






Temperatures are going to creep back up tomorrow into Monday before stormy weather moves into our area for the first part of the week.  Weather forecasters are talking about the possibility of some natural snow before temperatures fall off dramatically 12/26.  Christmas week is forecasted to be nice and cold allowing for round the clock snowmaking.  All of this cold air will allow us to provide great surface conditions and open terrain quickly. 

We are doing everything we can to open before 12/26.  Check this message for the most up to date information.
