Last day at Stowe
Our last day at Stowe was awesome. We got to ride in the morning with Scott reeves, the vp of operations at the resort. Scott was taking runs with the north east bid representative about a snowmaking revitalization plan proposed to be taking place next season. We got to learn how guns are layed out on the hill depending on the trail usage and countour of the landscape. Proper snowmaking benefits managers and employees because good snow = more customers and more working hours and most importantly, more money for all. Guests can benefit because they are sliding on a good product that is being produced by state of the art snowmaking.
