Hopefully this quick hitting storm brings everyone that has been missing out enough snow to cover your yards. Cataloochee may get that 100 inch base overnight! Expand Even though those newer guns were installed years ago, it still amazes me how fast they can go from zero to a skiable base (12 - 18") in under 24 hours. Tammy told me one season they had a 500k energy bill in just one month! That was before their guns and lines were upgraded. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
