Things have been a bit heated in here, so to cool folks off and get stoked for this upcoming season, post whatever snowmaking porn you can find.

I saw this yesterday...it is from Mountain Creek, but still pretty neat:



Or perhaps you like Sunday River (from a familiar face on this board) :wink: :



Pat's Peak



Sugarloaf:

This one you posted on another thread looks really cool. The snowmaking mist rising into the blue skies creates an interesting effect...reminds me of driving along the california coast when you're right at the line where the marine layer fog has started to creep in (contrast between the mystical dark fog and the bright blue sky).

I was watching some of these videos at home last night...

My friend saw me watching them and said "How can you watch that? It's like watching paint dry."

This quote popped into my head:

"For those who understand, no explanation is needed.
For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible."
