Hunter Dec 12

Hello Hunter fans,
The weather is finally cooperating! What a great day to ski. It was very cold with 20 @ base / 10 @ summit but no wind and plenty of sun. HBK and Belt best runs with consistent dry groomed powder. Minya was nice but had a few spots of marbles from the groomers breaking apart the whales & swales. Eside was under full guns as was Racers (closed), Dropoff (open) and the approach to Ike (open). Huega was all powdery whales of snow as was the Terrain Park. Wayout as eyeballed from the Belt was covered with whale humps but closed - most likely will get groomed out tonight for opening tomorrow. Claire's and the Alternate were under the guns and may open for the weekend. Cliff and Ike were open but hard, scraped off and bumpy so not really worth it considering how nice the alternatives were. There were not many people so every run was right onto the Flyer. No F or D open or necessary. Tomorrow, Friday the 13th,  is looking real good.
This weekend is Consumer Demo weekend for those of you who wish to try out the latest equipment.
Weekend weather should be cold with snow & flurries: http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Hunter&state=NY&site=ALY&lat=42.2112&lon=-74.2157#.Uqn7mSevkrc  I have not seen any accumulation forecasts yet.
