SEARCHMONT RESORT

****************************
Searchmont set to open with record breaking snowfall

With winter finally arriving and a record breaking snowfall under its belt Searchmont is set to officially open on December 26, 2012.

The snowfall was welcomed with open arms by the resort as the anticipated opening of December 21 was pushed back due to unseasonably warm temperatures throughout December.

The recent snowfall has helped to establish a much needed base that the resort requires to operate and has been struggling to create with snowmaking over the last month due to the weather.

"Snow is being tracked out, ditches are being filled, and the forecast looks great,” says General Manager Dan Misere. "We will continue to blow snow at every available opportunity and examine the options of opening even sooner if the conditions allow us to do so.”

Searchmont will be open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. from Boxing Day until January 5, and will resume their regular schedule on January 6, 2013.

Special lift ticket pricing will remain in effect until more terrain is open:

  • Adults - $29
  • Youth (11-17), Senior (55-69) and College/University Students - $19
  • Children under 10 and Super Seniors (70+) are always free

The Backyard mini-park will also be open all day.
