And Sundance Towers

We also added two snowmaking towers on Sundance. While tower guns are not ideal in every situation, they allow snowmakers to get more loft and throw with their shots and cover more ground with snow. One gun is near the bottom of the Upper Sundance Pitch and the other is close to the bottom of Sundance. Upper Sundance does have a snowmaking pipeline and electricity. This gun will help us make snow in a broader area more effectively. Lower Sundance does not have a pipeline or electricity. Again, the snowmakers will draw water and power from High Noon to make snow here. In the past this has been a difficult place for us to get covered with snow. The new tower gun should really help.
