Hunter News Flash Oct 11

Hi All,
Further to my earlier message please see attached photos of the fill being deposited on the west side as well as all the Z-lift chairs laying on the ground. Now here's the big news - although some of the fill is coming from the tubing park berm which is being lowered and extended futher back into the parking lot, most of it is coming from the half pipe which is being permanently removed due to lack of use and for more space in the terrain park for other obstacles.

Z-lift chairs are for sale @ $250 each to benefit the Hunter Racing Foundation.
Always trying to stay on top of things.  http://hunterskiscene.blogspot.com/

Hunter News Oct 11

Hi All,
As we head into the weekend with season passholder day on Sat (coinciding with the wine and beer fest) we will be greeted with some welcome cold weather (see below forecast). The tree colors are turning brown and bare as rain and wind have taken their toll on the fall leaves. Also don't forget that season pass / locker prices increase after Oct 15.
 
Once in a while mgmt pays attention to us.  I am pleased to report that for the past few days two huge mining trucks have been shuttling dirt from the tubing park berm back to the west side to help fill in the dip leading up to the quad lift. Thank you David S.
 
There was a water main break on Pine Lane on Tuesday so those of you in Colonel's Chair who were affected should run the water from an outside spiget until it is clear.
 
 
I can almost sense the snow coming early this year! Got to think positve!

A reinforcing shot of cooler air will move in behind the front with a gusty northwest wind.  This will keep temperatures in the lower to mid 50's on Friday despite increasing sunshine.
Widespread frost is likely on Saturday morning with many places starting out in the 20's.  Then, with mostly sunny skies in the afternoon it will rebound to the mid 50's.
