Under Perfect North's management, IMO this is great news.

All the big announcement stuff was in regards to the new chairlifts. Happy to finally hear about the snowmaking improvements as well.
WOOOOOO!

As long as Timberline doesn't use that new snow cat to groom everything like Snowshoe does most of the time I will be really happy. Timberline was truly a gem to have a trail, "Off The Wall" with almost 1,000 vertical feet of rarely groomed goodness. Timberline often would not even flatten the whales from snow making on that trail.

Heard that they hope to be ready to take reservations for the Timberline slopeside hotel in November. Really looking like a true "ski resort" not just a "ski area."
