Mad River Mountain resumes snowmaking

Mad River Mountain today is continuing its snowmaking for the 2016-2017 season.

The snowmaker will continue to churn out snow through the week and weekend.

The process includes a full snowmaking pond and over 130 high-powered fan guns to cover the terrain with snow.

A 55th season opening date has not been set yet for Mad River Mountain, which has finished a lodge re-build from a fire in 2015.

A grand opening party is scheduled for the Dec. 30 weekend, according to a release.
