SundayRiver Update 11/27/12

Strait from the site:

It’s going to be a busy night on the mountain when the lifts shut down. The snowmaking crew will be moving some snow guns around trying to get a number of trails prepared for a weekend open. Want to see some serious snowmaking in action? Check out this video shot today! Upper Sunday Punch is just one of the many trails to get a fresh coat and that means good things for those interested in the terrain park. The park crew are hitting the mountain as soon as the lifts stop spinning to allow snow to be made tonight. When all is said and done, we’ll have fresh snow and a reset of the current park if all goes as planned. 

The snowmaking continues tonight on Tempest while Wildfire is set to be groomed during the day tomorrow with the goal of opening the White Cap Quad this weekend. The Spruce Mountain Triple is also targeted to open this weekend allowing access to Upper and Lower Risky Business. The snowmaking crew is pretty humble but we like to remind them that we have the most open terrain in New England right now so they keep up the good work, not that they need the extra motivation. From this snow reporter’s perspective, the trails are in amazing shape considering it’s only November including Right Stuff and Monday Mourning which are in mid-season form.

Time is running out for college students to enjoy huge savings on a 2012-13 season pass. Ski or ride Sunday River, Sugarloaf, or Loon Mountain all season with no blackout dates for just $359. You only have until Friday, November 30 to take advantage of this great offer. 

The Barker Mountain Express and South Ridge Express will in operation tomorrow and start turning at 9am. Lift ticket prices are now $49 for adults, $39 for teens, and $29 for juniors and seniors. Purchase or pick up your season pass at South Ridge.
