The problem is, despite lots of cold nights, they quit making snow about two weeks ago. There may be a pile at the top of a couple slopes, but bare spots are all over and a lot of slopes are closed. Can't see how the season will last long now. With a week or so more snow making, skiing could easily have lasted into April agian this year, making for possibly the longest season ever at HV. It's disappointing, given the good start they made. Not all of the ideas seem to have made the jump from Seven Springs.
That picture is pretty deceiving. Looking at the snow levels there appears to be tremendous inconsistency on different parts of the hill. Looks like someone should have kept that snowgun moving so there would be more even coverage. 14 inches at the bottom of the hill and our hill wouldn't even be open. Perfect North has 50 inches consistently all over the hill. Unfortunately, interest wanes by the 2 or 3rd week of March and it doesn't make good sense economically for them to stay open.
