Hunter fire up-date

Hi All,

Just finished snooping in and around the lodge. There is the smell of smoke in the air and the damage, at least from outside looking in, does not appear to be bad.

There were some holes punched through the upper walls of the Copper Tree above the kitchen to air it out and fans were set up on the floor by one of those fire recovery companies as seen through the deck windows. The bar looked untouched.  I have no idea if there was any smoke damage to the condos above the Copper Tree.

There was a large puddle of water on the lower hallway floor between the first aid room and the locker room but there did not appear to be any damage to the rooms or lockers. A few ceiling tiles were on the floor and there were others still in place but visibly wet.

The High Peaks room had some fans going to dry out the carpet but there no visible water damage to the ceiling tiles or lockers.

Any significant damage apparently was limited to the kitchen. It could have been a lot worse. You would not know there was any problem from looking at the building from the parking lot and it was business as usual inside.

 

What I didn’t like was the fact that snow making was not in progress late last night or this morning in spite of excellent snow making weather. It did warm up to 38 now from 19 earlier and very sunny.
