Heavenly wants to make changes before ski season

No monster plans are on the books this building season, but Heavenly does want to make some changes to the mountain before the snow flies.

Heavenly wants to install an underground water supply line from the California Reservoir Dam pump house to the existing snowmaking infrastructure on Orion’s trail; install electrical power and fan gun connections on Upper California Trail to improve snowmaking; remove and restore the tubing area, surface life and beginners’ ski and snowboard school by relocating them next to the Big Easy chairlift; and then create snowmaking capability in this area.

“We believe the proposed capital improvements are consistent with Heavenly’s approved Master Plan. We expect to make a decision on the project within a few weeks after the close of the comment period,”said Cheva Heck, USFS spokesperson.
