Mount Snow is closed for the 2007/08 season. Thank you for a spectacular year, and we’ll see ya in November.
So what’s new for the 2008/09 season? Well, how ‘bout the fact that Mount Snow will have the most new-technology fan guns on the entire continent of North America. That’s right, we’re dropping more than $5,000,000 into snowmaking upgrades this summer and installing 150+ fan guns. Add that to the 101 guns we installed last summer, and we’re sitting on 250+, the most of any resort in North America (to be fair, Mexico didn’t give us much competition).
Several well-trafficked trails will be flanked by the new guns, including Ridge, Meadow, Upper Nitro, Lower Titanium, Mine Shaft, Deer Run, Canyon, Lodge, and Lower Exhibition, as well as other assorted locations. By purchasing the energy-efficient fan guns, we’re eliminating the need for 16 diesel-powered air compressors that power traditional air/water guns, and that saves the air from an annual average of 200,000 gallons of diesel exhaust.
In addition to the $5 million snowmaking expansion, $1.4 million will be spent on painting chair lifts, improving the guest locker room, and upgrading the Mount Snow Golf Course.
So go ahead, sit back and relax this summer. But don’t forget that while you’re barbecuing Boca burgers and testing the pH level in your pool, we’ll be prepping for the start of the 08-09 season, and dreaming of the best snow on the continent.
2008/09 season passes are on sale. First-tier discounts end June 1, so don't delay.
