With two very cold nights ahead, and possible round-the-clock operation through Tuesday night, Hunter??\u0432\u201e\u045es team of snowmakers is taking full advantage of this early season cold snap to see what a new and improved pumphouse can do.<\/p>\n<p>Improvements to Pumphouse #2, which services the upper half of the mountain, will help enhance Hunter??\u0432\u201e\u045es snowmaking. These improvements will produce more snow on the upper portion of Hunter and Hunter West, ultimately resulting in faster recovery rate of production, and better snow. Pumphouse #2 was revamped with new lines, new pumps and a fully automated snowmaking system.<\/p>\n<p>While an official opening date has not been announced, a November 13th debut is not out of the question.
