For Benefit Of The Arrowhead Recreation Area

 

New stuff for 2009-2010

bullet

 Lighting upgrade on the right side of the main slope area.  The project also included a complete ground up overhaul of the electrical.  The new lights consume 2/3 less power and are actually are brighter then the old fixtures.

bullet

In the ski shop we have added a few items here and there.

bullet

Few Elan skis that we will be trying out for  possibly major over haul of ski and boot inventory for next season

bullet

Updated some of the older snow board bindings that are easer to use and are faster to set up and expect to equipped the entire inventory for next season

bullet

The ice rink has been leveled to use less water to start and also natural earth sides to  hold more water in an event of a though.

bullet

The Ski and Snow Board lift line have been regarded to reduce the high and low spots this will help keep the lift handle at the same height along then entire length of the lift.

bullet

Top tubing area regarded to increase the unloading area and better flow away from the lift.  New staging area for lane 1 that will not interfere with the unloading area.  Installed a top lift shack so  staff can get out of the cold and snow for a bit.
