Any body know anything about Hunter???

Any update? Not sure what you mean by "$$ Locker room"? Maybe High Peaks?

10. Something / confusion is going on in the $$ locker room. Apparently things were taken from lockers over the summer, and they are cutting back on availibility etc. Heard lift line chatter on 2 days about this, but do not have absolute details.

yeah, high peaks. people that had adult beverages in their lockers had them removed. however, those that had the $300 lockers did not. Issue seems to be considered in many ways. They rent the locker, if it was a rental house the owner cannot enter without permission,,,,,

Also, they are now only allowing the pass cards to allow access 30 minutes before the lifts open, wheras the $300 a year lockers are accessable for hours before the lifts open.

The mountain has been empty since opening.

The rain today and Wednesday will most likely destroy what snow is there.

Went there today, booze and food were removed (booze was put back). Food crackers and the like shouldn't be left there (mice). Place had very little people skiing, it was a gloomy day, North was closed. Snow flurries right now. Tomorrow looks good.

Hmmm....flurries..
Maybe I'll go...
Watched the cam today...very gloomy

 

[Kingslug20]

Friggin rain wednesday..if it wasn't for that they could blow all night tonight..

 

[Kingslug20]

And so they did..blew enough to cover up all the shmaggugus...except for MK...that was not very smooth...
Empty and 30 degrees...pretty good for a few hours..

Sad news... Keith Holmquist "The Pro" has passed away. So sad. He was very optimistic...bought a season pass this year but the C would not let him go.

RIP

 

[Kingslug20]

Wow...he was one of the best..

Oh no! Terrible news.

I heard this morning.

RIP Keith

 

[Kingslug20]

Guns are blowing...friday..guess I'm going..

 

[Kingslug20]

Sun is out..3 good trails..they blew all night so its probably the best it's been.

Today was rough - delayed opening, Marbles, ice, sticky snow, and then a broken hose on a snow gun aimed a bleeker throwing out just water. Thankfully it was not pointed under the lift!!

Tomorrow will hopefully be much better. There will be a lot of weekenders tomorrow due to Keith's service in the afternoon.

And apparently in their infinite wisdom, they mistakenly handed out two new door key fobs for every locker. So the folks that paid for just one person got two door keys. Liquer was returned to lockers, but I know one guy who got something that was not his. And yes, he gave it to the gatekeeper.

 

[Kingslug20]

Stuck in CT another week...Hunter fri,sat,sun...reports look good...

Overlook was sick this afternoon under the guns. Rest of the mountain scratchy, They are trying their best however, making snow in marginal conditions on many trails.

 

[Kingslug20]

Overlook is great...when it's great...nice plummet in the middle...

yesterday i get to the mountain at 8;45. the flyer and b are not running. I ask the scan guy why the lifts are not running, He said he "thinks" ice. I go to the ticket window and am told the mountain opens at 9. They had no clue that the lifts are not running.

They open B at around 9:30 ish, and after about 3 runs F is open.

The filnally open the flyer around 1015 (not exact times).

All day several employees tell us that a snow gun was pointed at the lift and it froze. Then I read on Facebook that a hydraulic hose broke. Anyone know the truth? Just curious

Truth!? You can't handle the truth!! Lots of rain yesterday, and today looks to be the same, trial count is going down. Sunday looks like a winter winner

 

[Kingslug20]

So far the weather reports have changed..every day.
Sunday.....we shall see...I'll be there.

I was wondering about the lift - was it an icing delay or maintenance delay.
According to their website NOW - they do not have the flyer or F open today, but Hellgate, Minya and the Belt are open. Guess if you hike you can get to them. They had East Side Drive noted as open for a week, but there was not a flake on it.
How hard can it be to get this right.
Guess the rain yesterday, and it is raining here in town now, took out overlook or they just don't feel like running the lift.

Update - now at 9:15 6 pack is loading, but website still says it is closed.....
