Hunter news March 1

Hi  to all 110 of you on my lists,
I have to give you my opinion on the MTV show “Winter Break - Hunter Mountain” filmed last season which was shown this past Tuesday and will air more episodes on Tuesdays at 10:30 pm.
One word: Disgusting! Same crap as “Jersey Shore”.  Hunter’s family management’s attempt over the past two plus decades to make the resort family friendly has been wiped out by PEAK’s greed to make money any way it can. Shameful!
Unfortunately investors have bought into it, for now,  as the stock price (trade symbol: SKIS) had a big one day jump yesterday in terms of dollars and percentage on relatively heavy volume. Sliding back down to reality in today’s early trading.
 
Now to the upcoming storm. Contrary to what the website has to say, it will not be a powder day. The forecasts call for  heavy rain tonight changing over to 1 to 2 feet of heavy wet snow with high winds on Friday that will threaten trees and power lines. Once groomed out, Saturday could be a great day! It is 50 degrees out now and sunny.
This storm however will save Hunter from an early closing date.  Many of you have watched the snow melt away on the web cams or from on the slopes.  https://www.huntermtn.com/web-cams/   It would not have made it to the end of March. (See below map)
 
In restaurant news:
Jessie’s has special dinner nights Tuesday (Burgers), Wednesday (mussels) and Thursday (Asian noodle soup). It is open every night except Monday. https://www.jessiesharvesthouse.com/
Millrock in Windham has been sold but is still open pending the transfer of ownership.  https://www.zmenu.com/millrock-restaurant-windham-online-menu/
Jagerberg has opened with family style seating for German food with wine or beer – open for dinner Thursday through Sunday. They do not yet have a liquor license. https://jagerberghall.com/
Happy Trails,
Jon
 
 
 
The bulls eye for heavy snowfall accumulations will be across the Schoharie Valley and Catskills.  Please bear in mind this is a highly changeable forecast so these amounts may have to be bumped up or down based on model trends…
