The owners of Pats Peak have invested more than $5 million in the resort over the past six years.
Improvements for the 2007/2008 season include snowmaking upgrades; increased night lighting; new rental equipment; completely reconfigured beginners area; and expanded snowtubing hours.
The resort will add to an arsenal that already gives the mountain 100% snow coverage. Two additional high capacity water pumps have been installed to force the snow out even faster. Along with the increased snowmaking power, additional HKD tower guns have been purchased and six new SMI snowmaking fan guns were placed around the mountain.
The Rental Shop continues to enhance its rental fleet with 300 new pairs of skis & bindings and 200 snowboards.
The Beginners Area has been completely reconfigured including the relocation of the existing carpet lift closer to the side of the trail, giving more open terrain for beginners to learn. Additional snowmaking fan guns have also be added to the area to increase snowmaking coverage in the beginners Area.
With the addition of night lighting on the Vortex trail, Pats Peak has 21 out of 22 trails with lights for night skiing.
Snowtubing Hours have been extended on Friday Night. The snowtubing thrills now begin at 3pm on Fridays with 2 hours sessions of 3-5pm; 5-7pm; 7-9pm. Snowtubing Pricing for a Two-Hour Session is $14 and a Four-Hour Session is $16. |
