Set up began at the South Peak Resort Warming Hut around 7:30 in the morning that day to gray skies and flurries. We could see the reps from the ski companies setting up near the Pemigewassett Base Camp. After a few minutes everyone enjoyed the continental breakfast that was available in the Hut!
Registration started at 8am. One by one o
ur South Peak owners arrived, eager to sign up for the Demo Day Activities! The ski reps set them up with skis of their choice, and off they went. (For those that are unfamiliar with the South Mountain side of Loon Mountain, it features the following runs: Boom Run, Ripsaw, Undercut, Cruiser and Escape Route. These runs are a mix of blue, black diamond and double black diamond, which is perfect for trying out different types of skis. It allowed the demo-ers to ski soley on South Mountain if they so wished).
The BBQ was delicious, to say the least. The skies, by that time, were cloudless, and the sun shone down on the Hut's deck while everyone enjoyed burgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs, grilled chicken, chips, pickles, you name it! Everyone had tons of fun taking a break from demo-ing and getting together to share a few good laughs and discuss skis.
Finally, it was time for the day to wind down. Many joined us at the South Peak info office to indulge in a fun Apres Ski social, compared notes on the new 2012 skis and learned more about South Peak Resort on Loon Mountain's latest developments and real estate information.
It truly was a fantastic day, all compliments of Terramesa Resorts. We had a great time and we know our owners and their guests did, too. Many thanks go out to Loon Mountain Sports and all Loon staff that made the day a huge success!!
