West Mountain improvements 2014-15

Adk Jeff
West Mountain is spending $400 thousand on snowmaking improvements, primarily the installation of a new 10-inch water main (the old main was 6") to the top of the mountain. “We’ll be able to make twice as much snow in half as much time.”

Another $250K is being spent on lighting upgrades for West Mountain's night skiing operation.  It's unclear from the article whether the lighting project will be completed before the ski season begins.

Lighting from Reliable Racing and says in the article can be installed after skiing starts.

This is good news. Their night lighting sucks in places.

I thought maybe I was just getting old last season. It was pretty bad everywhere.
