I've heard from a couple people that Hunter will be ready to start making snow as early as November 1st... They are supposed to start gun tests and stuff that day...

If the weather looks good and cold they will make snow and open... Well ahead of their 11/19 projection...

I'll keep y'all posted...

I really dig this time of year.... :)

Who cares, Hunter sucks, anyway!

Just kidding- that's great news. If Hunter can stay cold and open early, there may be hope for the rest of us, too.

Look forward to hearing about any hill blowing snow. I'm so sad ASC didn't buy Hunter.

Why? Just about everyone who's a regular there is thrilled that the Slutsky's gave ASC the boot.

To have Hunter included in the All4One pass would have been SWEET! Hunter's 90 minutes from my house. The Skills got powder that didn't hit VT last year. Plus I could party and crash at DMC's new pad.

I see; I guess I can understand that line of reasoning.

If Hunter were part of ASC and were included in the ASC season pass, it would be ridiculous on weekends. I'm glad it's not part of the ASC empire (for many many reasons), and I'm even an ASC pass holder.
