Nice job SR! :beer:

 

[prisnah]

I'll be there Saturday at least and possibly Sunday, look for a gray hoody and tan pants or a blue and green suit. I'll be on AR6's (with what looks to be Mr. T on 'em) most likely.

Given the weather, they must have blown and impressive amount of snow on T2 to be confident in making it through the weekend. It looks like snowmaking temps return Sunday - Thursday. I might make it up for a day the weekend of 15-16

DHS, if the swath of heavy "immature snow" that has been stuck over NE CT for the last few hours heads on up first to you in NH and then onto the River, it will be a real impressive feat! Hats off the the SR snowmakers!

 

[MonkeyBrook]

We will be there on Saturday.

Wow..glad to hear the base is holding up..

 

[Jonni]

At least it's doing better than Mount Snow's base:

Makes me think about a little though: Mount Snow used fan guns to produce their snow while Sunday River appears to have used primarily air/water guns. Now I know that many people stand by the fan guns as being a good option, but right now at least, there's no comparison. Don't forget Killington was also open too without fan guns. I'm not trying to start a snow gun war, but it just seems like the air/water technique still seems like a better option to me. At least as far as early season goes.

Sorry for the thread hijack.

I'll bet that it's been considerably colder at SR and Killington than it has been at Snow.
