WINTER IS STILL WITH US and we hope you'll join us this Saturday, 3/22, on Empire's final Hunter Mountain Bus Trip of the season!!! Cooler temperatures return to Hunter Mountain this Tuesday through Thursday and Saturday's forecast calls for 44 degrees under cloudy skies. At present, all trails are open with a hefty snow base of 38-104".
To reserve your spot on the bus it is highly recommended that you sign up in person at the Princeton Ski Shop AT LEAST 3 DAYS IN ADVANCE, that's Wednesday, 3/19. Walk-ins the day of the trip are permitted only if there is space on the bus to accommodate them.
