watching the web cam now - people falling on the ice in front of the lodge, skis/boards being blown off the racks by the wind, and of course the usual mess of people navigating those insane steps but with ice today.

very high winds, More people coming off the mountain than going up for sure. It has got to be tough skiing today

Has Hunter been making snow the past few days?
With the winds, I don't believe that anyone has made snow the last few days, as it would probably end up a few miles away!

Guessing most resorts though, short of a spot touch up here and there in isolated spots are done for the season, as with the lack of any real thaw and/or big rain events for most of the Northeast ski resorts since basically New Years, they were likely able to reach their planned, desired base depths for their late season ops plans sooner than usual without having to keep going back an resurfacing trails post thaw/freeze up like often happens in most January's/Early February's

It’s amazing no info on the website about current snowmaking. Mid station cam needs to be tilted up so we could see further up the hill. The snow report is always a mix of two days. The weather for a three week stretch was prime for snowmaking and Hunter took advantage, Great Job. Hunter needs to work on comunication with the customers.

How is it skiing? Snow making helping things out? I'm between Bell and Hunter for a few hours tomorrow morning. Sounds like Bell had resurfaced just about the whole mountain, but I have some Epic days to burn, so....
