i'd rather hear about you making snow in your backyard

Ok, here you go. You may find this interesting. I should have done this in December/January when I was actually making a lot of snow.

Nice job, Ethan. How come you put that here and not in snowmaking/operations thread? Also, how long does it take you to cover enough trail to take a run?

With the existing setup, I like to run for about 18-24 hours before I get the gang together to bang the snow out with shovels and then we take our runs. This weekend will be a much lighter approach.

I'll put it in Snowmaking/operations too.

Nice work Ethan

It's obvious you're put forth alot of effort to make that happen.

Impressive work young man !!

Very impressive!!!!!

How much per/hour does it cost to run the system?

Seriously Ethan.  That was awesome.... my wife thinks you're insane, but I can easily see the sanity in your efforts.

Too cold to hunt down little petit homme today!  

My son and his friends are skiing The Face today , it's a  wear everything you got type of day. Brrrrrr, up here on the St Lawrence its nasty enough .

The gas for the pump only costs me about a $1.00-1.25 per hour with the current gas prices and the compressor draws about 3.5 KW, so that's about $.35

Call it $1.50 an hour. Factor in the total cost of the equipment and it's a lot more than that.

Why does she think I'm insane? Everyone has a hobby.

Allow me to point you in the direction of some other kids just like me who did the exact same thing up in Maine. https://mainesnowmakers.com

Well worth it,
Also very impressed with your plumbing..A good plumber makes serious money..

Petit Homme is a quitter!  

He's probably done with the forum. I can't blame him honestly.

I remember my first girlfriend too. Lol.

Well, history shows that when one whipping boy leaves here, the crackas choose a new one.

Not sure what you're trying to say.
