Snow Grooming (he said)

by Kent 15 Feb 2011

Beaver Creek is famous for its snow grooming. In fact, The Beav regularly trades number one rankings in skier surveys with Deer Valley, Utah, for their grooming proficiency. They buy $300k Pisten-Bully snow grooming machines like they’re going out of style.

I thought it would be fun to capture the nightly grooming activities in a time lapse video, so click below to see the machines in action in a 30-second clip. The video does have music, so if the boss is within earshot, drop your volume or mute your PC.

Here is a direct link in case something doesn’t render properly with the embeded video player: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfYbnkqMZKI
