Hunter skiing Feb 3

Hi All,
Last night we had some rain followed by an inch or two of fresh snow as temps dropped to 15. The groomers (great job Skip!) I am told did an exceptional job on almost the entire mountain (Apurna the exception which will be done tonight). The day started out overcast with flurries but the sun came out strong and the temp warmed up to about 23 which made for great visibility. Skiing as reported by GM was very nice, consistent and very edgeable thanks to the groomers getting deep into the previous crust. Thanks GM for your help this week. Crowds were light as usual for a Thursday. NBC News NY will be filming around the mountain tomorrow for a special they are doing on the mountaintop community. I will try and get some more details on this for you. The skiing should be nice tomorrow with sun but dress for the cold as it may be a bit windy. The weekend is looking better than it did earlier in the week.
Hunter has hired a new marketing manager from the outside by the name of Jerry Schinkel(sp?) to start on Feb 14, Valentine's day.
See my Tues report for the movies.
