Do they blow like a shit ton of snow or something or? Doesn’t look like they do anything crazy like push it all in one spot like Woodward does

they dig 8ft deep tunnels from the base and place large refrigeration units under the dirt.

It gets pushed to one spot and they blow a good amount of snow. It helps that it's been well below average temps this spring, they are usually closed the first or second weekend of May. They also run a camp in July(?), pretty sure it's just a hike park they open for a week.
