Sunday River tests snow-making guns

NEWRY – The snow guns have been running at the Sunday River ski resort in western Maine.

Sunday River officials said they made snow Sunday while testing out 70 new snow-making guns that were purchased as part of a $14 million upgrade at the Newry resort.

The “fan guns” are designed to make more snow at marginal temperatures while using less energy. Sunday River’s mountain manager, Brent Larson, said the new equipment would position the resort to offer good early season ski conditions.
