Hunter Dec 8 ski conditions

Hi all you Hunter fans,
I can finally give you some first hand information. It is a beautiful sunny windless but cold day with temps barely reaching 20. There is heavy snow making on Cliff, Bleeker, Ike, Eside & Wayout all of which were still closed. There were also guns blowing some great powder on the mid-station area. HBK was the best run today with nice hard pack on Hgate and super creamy powder from mid-station right on down to the Flyer. Minya was groomed but very crunchy, inconsistent and noisy. The only way out was down through Mossy which was very dark. They have no snow behind the top of B-lift so unable to cross over to Kennedy from the east side. The Belt was very consistent and easy but dark.
There were hardly any people which made it very nice and care-free. It was great for a first day out.
The storm should bring some significant but very wet heavy snow Tues- Thurs with predictions anywhere from 6 to 15 “. It will certainly not be conducive for powder skiing and not good for trees or power lines.
Drive and ski with caution.....
Jon
