Sunburst Doubles Its Snowmaking

.

Sunburst purchased another 300 horsepower snowmaking pump and 16 new snowguns for this season. 

The new equipment will enable Sunburst Skiing, Snowboarding and Snowtubing Area to open faster and recover from winter thaws better.

Jim Engel, owner of Sunburst said that the new system will change over 2500 gallons of water into snow every minute.

The snow crews are ready to start with the first sign of cold temperatures in October or November.

they always get new snowguns, what we need to see is an email like

"Sunburst Finally Cares About Our Park!

We here at sunburst promise to finally give the park the time of day, give Robby some money so he can do his job, and give some of our many resources to the park for once.


-Steven Voss"

Andy that is a start. but i'd like to see a news release with the title.

"RAILS, WE FINALLY GOT SOME. BOXES, A THING OF THE PAST!"

that would make me buy a season pass there for sure.

C-murder told me they're trying to get a true handrail this year, instead of a metal bar 3 inches off the snow.



And yes P-man, I wish they would send us that e-mail also.
