Hunter - Snow making up-date Nov 14

Hi All,
Once again the weather is not cooperating. Even though we have cold nights the temps do not stay cold long enough and there are a few inversions predicted in the near term.  Best estimate (subject to change of course) for snow making to commence is the day after Thanksgiving with a full opening around December 1 (soft opening may be earlier). There were a few new snow guns added to the mid-station area including a powerful fan jet and I hear Claire's may also have some new guns on skier's left along side the old "Z" lift.
Other news: The KMC Hotel's restaurant manager, John Jones, is gone and his replacement is slated to start tomorrow.
Many of the pot holes in the parking lot have been filled in and I think you all will like the new deck arrangement on the slope side of the lodge.
Here is a link to a recent MSNBC / Today Show segment on Tannersville:
Reminder: The ULLR Fest behind Keith's "The Pro Ski & Ride" shop on Main St. is this Friday November 16 at 7 pm. It is suggested that you bring your own grog and a lawn chair if sitting is preferred. One pair of skis will be burned as a sacrifice to the ski Gods in a camp-fire like setting. There will be music, food and refreshments.
Trusting you are all getting on well after the super storm and looking forward to winter sports.
Gas is $3.79 / gal and plentiful.
Ski ya soon,
Jon
