Keeping it chill on the hill ❄️🎿
A team of 15 at @902martock unrolled a massive solar blanket to save a huge pile of this year’s snow.
Less snowmaking = less energy + fewer emissions
More saved snow = earlier opening days 🙌
It’s a simple idea that could make a big difference for the season ahead.
Proud to support innovative tech like this that helps extend the season and keep local tourism thriving.
