Hunter Mtn Expansion Details

[ss20]

Those are people that I like to avoid at Hunter... TypeA first chair freaks... Makes no sense to me if there's no pow higher than the boot...
Guarantee all those people are entitled AF

Ah yes...those are the people I should avoid at Hunter...but not the guy who trashes on people he doesn't know because they like skiing and can get out of bed earlier than him...

Dougie has a rep for not liking anyone or anything - except his drum set...........

Nice first day today. Got 13 runs in by 11:30. Looks like Heuga and Minya are ready to go for tomorrow! Started blowing on Cliff as well! Nice coverage!

Anyone going Sunday? A short day trip is needed.

Saturday was a great day at hunter. Lapped the flyer lift all day, no lines. Hellgate was groomed really nice and minya konka had some decent bumps. Pretty impressive coverage for thanksgiving weekend.

Hoping to get one more weekend without the crowds before I stay very far away until late March lol.

These trails will be awesome!!!! Got a look from a distance yesterday and it's impressive how much work they got done. They set off an explosion yesterday that I felt in my house... hahaa... so cool...

Cool Funky, glad Hunter is getting some attention. I learned to ski there and what a long strange trip its been since then. For me it came down to buying property at Hunter, Mt Snow or Killington. I think you can guess which I ultimately picked. Always thought Hunter West had the potential to be great though. May have to check out Hunters new trails just for s--ts, giggles and old times sake.

Cool - yeah - I think it's going to make the intermediates happy
Although the trails do look kind of steep from the road.. I've ridden the terrain in the past - it's good stuff..

Pretty stoked for this...

Was any of this cut before this season? If not that is some amazingly fast progress.

All started this spring (mid to late April). Hates off to them for turning this around so quick.

Was just reading their investor presentation, couple of things that stood out about Hunter. 1) they are the top revenue per skier visit out of all the resorts and they mentioned about the expansion offer the possibility of increase residential and lodging offerings. The other item that applies to all their resorts is that season passes only account for 35% of lift ticket revenue. Since most of their resorts are day trips, I guess that makes sense.

They have been aggressive for sure... Been amazing to watch from the valley.

Impressive for sure, now to the really hard parts getting the water pipes and lift footings in.

IMO 35% is a pretty high number.
