Hunter March 22

Hi All,
Another dusting last night with cold temps made for another nice day of skiing. It was a bit colder today and the visibility was not as good as yesterday due to frequent cloud cover. There was a noticiable wind on top also. A front started moving in around 11:30 with flat light and flurries as expected. Grooming again was sensational with the entire mountain treated to a facial. Claire's was hard and fast but the best trail in terms of snow was Racer's which actually had a powder surface rather than granular. The Eside trails were quite good as was Cliff, HBK and Ike. No crowds, no lines and no "F" or "D" all week.  There was a rumor of bear tracks on Eside Drive but I didn't see any. It wont be long untill we do have bear sightings if spring ever gets here. The 7 day forecast calls for continued cold and flurries. Sunday looks to be a bit warmer than Saturday as we may see temps hit 40.  http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Hunter&state=NY&site=ALY&lat=42.2112&lon=-74.2157
Keep the cold weather gear handy and the edges sharpened,
