Peek'n Peak Ski Resort Chautauqua County

Findley Lake, NY - Peek'n Peak Resort and Spa will open for its 44th ski and snowboard season at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, with eight trails and two lifts in operation.

Last year the western New York State ski and snowboard resort purchased a new $2 million snowmaking system expansion employing HKD Snowmaking Tower Gun Technology. This upgrade has enabled the resort to produce four times the amount of snow as before, so the terrain parks and tubing areas will also be open very soon, staffers promise. Snowmaking began on Thanksgiving night.

"Visitors will find that this tower gun technology can pump out 2,300 gallons of water per minute. In a 24-hour time period, we have covered 10 acres with 12 to 18 inches of snow. In the last three days, we have utilized 6.2 million gallons of water and 3 million in the last 24 hours," Chip Day, Vice President of Brand Management at Peek'n Peak, said on Wednesday.

The ski resort is offering a $5 discount on all lift tickets until more slopes are open
