Hunter skiing Feb 16

Hi All,
Snow snow snow = fun fun fun! It has been non stop since early this am with 6" down and still snowing heavily as the forecasters blew this one! The temps were 17 summit and 25 base with dry snow, some fog up top and no wind. The skiing was incredible early with freshies as the crowd was very light to begin with but later was building and forming moderate lines at the quad. Visibility was limited and although the snow got cut up by the skiers & boarders it was light enough not to create much resistance while blasting through it and tracks were quickly covered over by new snow. I didn't think any one run was better than another. Tomorrow should be awesome! The roads here have yet to be plowed and are totally white.
