I know there are a few Alpine Zone members like "campgottagopee" for example who are interested in anything NEW at Greek Peak ski center. Well Today Sun. 11/8/09 I drove up to catch the tail end of the annual Ski-Swap sale. When I left the main parking lot and was driving back to Binghamton, I looked over at the Maintenance/Snow-Cat Garage building and sitting out there in front of the garage were, I think I saw 3 brand new big yellow fan guns. I only got a quick look, but they looked like state of the art "TechnoAlpin" fan guns. Not sure which model, but they looked a little like the Pic I posted here.

I saw those bad boys last weekend too Rambo---nice to see a few bucks thrown at the hill. Hope this water park thingamajig really works for them so we can get some REAL $$$ for new lifts, trails, lodge updates etc, etc.

Ithaca is a great college town!!! Visiting in early December won't give her a look at the area at its most beautiful, though.

Good luck!

I agree--great town in all respects, and Greek is a nice ski area, especially if (like me) you were brought up skiing in PA.

yea great town - we've been up a few times over the last few years in the fall and summer to camp at taughannock (checked out town during a street festival), mtb'ing (shindagin), and a for a wedding. It will be interesting to see it the college context... greek is our new home mt away from home this year - we bought into hope lake lodge along with some friends, should be alot of fun!
