Fan Guns Make it Happen:
Over $5 million dollars were spent in 2008 to install over 150 new fan guns. This is in addition to the $3.5 million spent on fan guns in 2007. The 2008-09 season will provide guests at Mount Snow with over 250 fan guns, the most new-technology fan guns on the entire continent of North America. No Joke!

Rental Equipment:
The Mount Snow equipment Rental Shops offer an extensive product selection and inventory, conveniently located in the Clocktower Rental Shop and at the Sundance Base Lodge. We feature skis from Rossignol, ski boots by Dalbello and Tecnica, as well as snowboards and boots from Rossignol. This extensive state of the art product mix offers the snow sport participant of all skill levels a match to the fit, comfort, and performance level he or she needs.

Carinthia comes to life:
A smorgasbord of rails, jumps and halfpipes will cover nearly five miles of terrain at Carinthia. A snowskate playground, hikable park, beginners' learning park and a skate ramp will surround the base area, while the base lodge itself will be renovated and outfitted with lounge areas, an extended outdoor deck with ample seating, counter seating along the windows, free wireless internet, flat screen televisions and outdoor fire pits.

A high-speed quad and a double chairlift will shuttle skiers and riders up the hill, where they can choose from a variety of approximately 125 freestyle features scattered around 12 full terrain parks. A tree-skiing area, a superpipe with 18-foot walls, a mini-pipe with 8-foot walls, an all-natural park absent of manmade material and a big-air site will also be featured.
