Can’t tell if just lighting money on fire or if this is them expecting steady business late season. So many people, everyone still outdoors and about it, steady business. Good winter on the east overall.
Get rid of some of these Covid restrictions soon and get those umbrella bars open and poppin’.
Or they just have budget still in snowmaking and spend it or loose it. That might be more the idea.
K still blowing, hitting bunny buster and upper east fall tonight after hitting OL and great bear last night. Looks like their plan is to not blow as much on supe this year, but keep other pods open later than normal to keep things spread out.

Berkshire East posted on Facebook today at noon that they are not done making snow:
We are happy to announce that we will be and have been, aggressively making snow at Catamount and Berkshire East this week. This quick trip to the ski area plastic surgeon will buy us a few additional, meaningful weeks on top of our already excellent base. We are excited to give these additional weeks to you because we don't want this unique, amazing season to end early.

Sunday River hit White Heat overnight (more of a top coat than base build) and Right Stuff but they kept the guns going all day over there. Continuing the make on RS tonight and hitting Risky Business again as well. Plan is thru the 24th of April right now and based on ticketing calendar, looks like every day til then. A bit odd to end it on a Saturday, wonder if the snow holds they will add Sunday for the skimania "free day" (as of now, 4/24 shows as a $49 day ticket). Wonder if they will add Ecstacy/Sunday Punch tomorrow in the bitter cold. They had hoses connected on Punch today.

Katz preserving 'liquid' assets.
"While the company’s business has declined, the company still has plenty of liquid assets, including $1.4 billion in cash on hand. Katz attributed the company’s financial position to both guest loyalty and a “thoughtful, disciplined approach to expenses.”

They actual have it posted on the events calendar that 4/24 (a Saturday) will be the final day. No mention of free tickets, maybe a Covid thing.

Camelback is often the last place to close in PA. Glad to see they are still blowing snow.

Montage blowing snow again https://www.montagemountainresorts.com/trails/#trailconditions
They are "continuing to make snow as long as temperatures allow" and "have sights set on April"
If Montage of all places can justify blowing snow still, Hunter certainly can

Berkshire East was blowing snow this morning, mainly at the base. There are still whales all over the mountain. They sent out an email a few days ago about staying open later than usual.
