Hunter Mountain in mid December
I'm going to be in NYC in mid December so I might shoot over to Hunter for
a few hours. What sort of conditions should I expect? Do they usually have any intermediate stuff open that early in the season? |

Depends solely on temperature. Hunter's description of an ideal day is 20
degrees (F) and a clear sky. The primary snow base is from snowmaking, so if it's a cold November, which it looks like so far, then it will be good snowmaking weather. Hunter's OK mid-week but avoid like the plague on weekends. "Chuck" wrote in message ... I'm going to be in NYC in mid December so I might shoot over to Hunter for a few hours.

Absolutely unpredictable.
As long as they have stable below freezing temps at night, they can cover whole mountain in a few days. Nobody make a snow like Hunter. It's just amazing... Last season was great, but this... Can't wait to find out... |

As the others said, it all depends on the temps. A cold Nov and Dec, you
could find most of the mountain open. If temps aren't good for snowmaking, you might find 2 or 3 routes down the mountain available.
