Hunter to re-open December 26??

Hi All,
Welcome to the winter that isn’t.  Hunter announced late yesterday that they will next be open December 26  - weather permitting of course. Personally, I have my doubts.
Even though there will be some colder weather this Friday night through Sunday with some lake effect snow flurries it warms up again next week (high 30’s and 40’s) with some rain forecast for most of the weekdays.
Christmas Eve it is supposed to be around 55 here.
Pray for snow and have a very Merry Christmas.
Jon

Hunter to open Friday Dec 11

Hi All – the wait is over!
Hunter to open Friday in spite of the weather forecast:
 
 
Today we announced that we will open THIS FRIDAY, 12/11/15 for the first day of the 2015-16 season! Woo hoo! The Flyer lift will service the main run top-to-bottom (advanced abilities only), which consists of Hell Gate, 7th Ave, Kennedy, and 5th Ave. The coveted First Chair of the season goes up at 9am! Lift starts spinning Saturday and Sunday at 8:30am.
Lift ticket rates are $44 for Friday, 12/11 and $54 for Saturday and Sunday, 12/12 & 12/13; for sale onsite at the window only. Big Lift Super Saver discounts are in effect!
This weekend's weather looks ideal for enjoying BBQ, beers (21+ only), and mingling on the main deck. Your favorite bartenders will also be serving drinks at the Main Bar - on your way there grab a slice of pizza!
We will keep you updated with information in reference to additional trail and lift openings as well as our hours after this weekend, all of which will be posted on our Snow Report
