Hunter skiing Jan 13

Another great day of skiing - this extended cold weather has made for some of the best consistent daily skiing in years.
Today was a reverse of yesterday in terms of weather: great early sun then clouds from 10 am till noon before the sun returned for a game of hide n seek. Temps were in the single digits last night but now about 30 (heat wave!). Thurs & Fri look to be even nicer. Still no snow making in sight and we could use some.
All trails were very good today as the grooming continues to be extraordinary. The only trail I wouldn't repeat today was Apurna which was hard, slick and, for the first time, a bit rocky. Claire's was sweet as was Rt. 80. Cliff / Racer's / Ike also very very nice. A few more people today with the Wednesday Jersey bus groups but not enough for any lines. No lift problems - a new record!!
Just to mention a few local events this weekend: Pig Roast Sat night at The Perfect Lift (Milan's), the band "23 A" playing Sun night at MacGregor's plus the following blurbs from Hunter including more fireworks:


If you missed last weekend's party, stay tuned for the sequel this weekend -- MLK fireworks on Saturday, complete with a DJ & live band (live music also at the Main Bar on Sunday!)


Friday, January 22nd is another Customer Appreciation Day - you can pick up your $25 lift ticket voucher at any of the retail locations of the following retail locations (first come, first served!) -- Potter Bros, Ski Barn, Pelican, Paragon, Burton SoHo, Blades, Panda, Emilio's, Homage, Pedigree, SnoHau, D&Q, Buckman's and Brave New World.
