North Carolia’s Sugar Mountain Resort has invested $300,000 in snowmaking improvements for the upcoming winter season. Continuing a multi-year effort to replace and upgrade all snowmaking pipes on the mountain, Sugar Mountain replaced 3,000 feet of snowmaking pipes on the parts of the eastern side of the mountain. Additional snowmaking machines have been added to Sugar’s arsenal, and the base of the Sugar Slalom slope was also widened.

The existing Yellow and Gray lifts are being renamed, to Summit #1 and Summit #2, respectively.

Sugar Mountain’s rental inventory has also been refreshed, with the addition of six hundred new ski packages and one hundred new snowboard packages.
