Hunter April 6 & 7

Hi All,
Spring is definitely here with temps around 50 and strong sun. If soft wet snow and moguls are for you then you will be in ski heaven. There have been very few skiers these past two days. Yesterday there were lift problems with the Flyer which didn't open until noon and "B" / "F" didn't open until 9:30. "Z" has been closed the past two days although there were a few skiing (poaching) the west side today with a car meeting them at the base for a ride back to the front side. "Z" will open tomorrow and for the weekend. There are some serious bare spots on Ike, Racer's, Cliff, White Cloud, Claire,s and brown snow in many areas but the main line is still well covered. The pond was built today. It's approx 70 ft long and 5 ft deep. Saturday looks to be a very warm and nice day for the deck party. All lift tickets are $25 from now until closing day which is still undecided. Windham closed last Sunday and Belleayre may also close this Sunday.

Have a great spring and thanks for all your support throughout the season.
