I’ll supply some numbers here. The Flyer has 82 chairs, B has 88, C has 48, D has 136, E has 90, F has 119, H has 69, The Zephyr has 15 towers and 67 chairs and Northern Express has 11 towers
They wanted it closed and they mean it. From their blog post back in May:
“As a reminder to all our hikers and explorers who will be joining us throughout the spring, summer and fall, the Hunter North construction zone including but not limited to the Belt Parkway, Jimmie Heuga Express, The Cliff, White Cloud and all of Hunter West is OFF LIMITS. This limited access is for your safety and we appreciate our guests cooperation! All prohibited areas are clearly marked with signs and caution tape.”
Is there a reason Hunter has never ventured further up the mountain? Their lift-served summit is 3,200 feet, but the mountain’s actual summit is over 4,000 feet, which is higher than every Vermont resort except Stowe, Killington, and Sugarbush. They could use the extra elevation at their latitude…
Everything to the south of the current boundary is the state owned Hunter-West Kill Wilderness, so it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to have it permitted. E lift and the Poma go right up to the boundary.

Zephyr not open 2021-2022. Snow making is not taking g advantage of cold weather. VAIL saving $$ on services = disappointed skiers

What does that even have to do with the previous comment?

Does it really matter? Why get in such a tizzy to complain to the poster that their comment doesn’t belong?

Hunter West was closed this summer due to Hunter North construction. I will get Zephyr when I go back for Northern Express.

B lift was built by Poma, and the G lift was removed in 1998 and relocated to GII that same year.
