Snowmaking
- 1967: Hunter became the first area in the world to feature summit to base snowmaking
- 1980: First area to achieve 100% snowmaking coverage
- 2006: Over 1,100 snow machines installed. Most of the snowguns are mounted on towers to insure the maximum amount of "air time" for falling snow to freeze. Hunter has enough air and water available to run half of the snowmaking arsenal at once under marginal snowmaking conditions.
