Construction update
|
| |
| Extensive construction projects at the lodges recently came to an end with the arrival of fresh snow. Renovations at Sunrise Lodge have been completed. At Meadow Lodge we are happy to report that extensive exterior upgrades are finalized plus all the upstairs bedrooms have been totally refurbished. A complete overhaul of the Grey Water disposal system at Sentry has been accomplished. Also at Sentry, a new kitchen was installed last week. Big plans are underway to re-vitalize Vista Lodge in the summer of 2009. Alpine ski touring prices for Meadow and Vista are at an all time low! Now is the time to take advantage of the opportunity. |

The Sentry Mountain Lodge Webcam has been capturing great shots of all the new snow that has arrived over the past few weeks. Check out the special feature called " A year in the life of Sentry" located directly underneath the live webcam shot. It is a compilation of web photos including the months in which the pictures were taken for an entire season. See for yourself how quickly the snow pack grows and then shrinks again as summer arrives.
