Abstract:

Two artificial-snow runs are scheduled to open around December 15th, hopefully bringing a break-through in western North Carolina's economic growth. The locations of these slides are Blowing Rock, and Cataloochee Ranch on Fietop Mountain. Although both areas experience heavy snowfall, snow-making machinery is being installed to facilitate skiing anytime the weather is freezing.
