Hunter conditions Jan 20

Hi all you Hunter fans,
Just another spectacular day and great recovery for Hunter after the heavy rains on Sunday and freeze on Monday. The guns were blasting dry powder on most front side trails all night and day making for some great western style skiing all morning under a sunny blue and windless sky. Visibility was excellent. Grooming was done where necessary like on Racer’s which was flat and fast. Every trail on the front side was in excellent shape as guns continued blowing.The west side was still closed since Saturday when the lift broke (electrical component failed and a new one is due to arrive here from Colorado today). The “Z”  lift should be running for tomorrow.  Temps today ranged from 20 to 28 now.
Crowds were very light now that college week is over (yay!) and there were no lines. No “D” or “F” as not needed.
I would expect some very sweet surface conditions all week.
In restaurant news: Numero Uno Pizza is closed and for sale as the owner suddenly and unfortunately passed away from what I am told was a heart attack.
This is the week to play hooky if you can.
Happy trails,
Jon
