New York’s Family Mountain Adds All-Weather Snowmaking Capabilities and a New Lodge Perfect for Hosting Birthday Parties and Events
WARWICK, N.Y. (Dec 2, 2024) – Mount Peter Ski Area, New York’s family mountain in Warwick, N.Y., is introducing all-weather snowmaking capabilities and a new lodge to host events in its snow-tubing area. The improvements debut with the 2024-2025 ski season.
Mount Peter has invested in the Latitude 90, a revolutionary all-weather snowmaking system that produces snow in temperatures above what traditional snowmaking equipment can. This enclosed and independent snowmaking system can withstand ambient temperatures, winds and humidity to perfectly complement Mount Peter’s traditional snow guns.
The Latitude 90’s capabilities include the option to run 24 hours a day, producing over 156 cubic yards of snow. Additionally, the unit has two outlets that can each blow snow up to 328 feet. A camera, which can be controlled remotely, allows users to view the snowmaking process, and where the snow is blown outside.
To complement the newest snowmaking system, Mount Peter Ski Area has built a new 40 feet x 50 feet lodge in the tubing area. The new lodge features 1,500 square feet of event space. The beautiful new amenity is a perfect spot for hosting group gatherings, birthday parties and summer events!
“We are beyond excited for these additions to Mount Peter and our tubing area,” said Executive Manager Amy Sampson-Cutler. “These superb new capabilities mean we can keep the tubing area open well before and beyond our traditional season. We can now host birthday parties and groups consistently throughout an extended tubing season. In addition, during warmer months, Mount Peter is now a wonderful, attractive venue for bridal and baby showers, as well as other events!”
Mount Peter Ski Area offers skiing, snowboarding and tubing. Winter outdoor enthusiasts of all levels are welcome. Mount Peter’s famous FREE beginner lessons for skiing and snowboarding are offered on weekends and holidays to introduce newcomers to the sport. Mount Peter also offers private and family lessons, including mid-week learn-to-ski and snowboard packages.
Just an hour drive from the George Washington Bridge, Mount Peter is located at 51 Old Mount Peter Road in Warwick, N.Y. For more information, visit mtpeter.com.
