For Immediate Release: August 27th, 2015
Kananaskis, AB – We’re making some exciting ‘behind the scene’ upgrades over the summer to our snowmaking system including rerouting & cooling. This major new snowmaking project, currently underway, will not only enhance the skiing and riding experience but also to reduce use of water during the cooling process. The snowmaking system upgrades will also assist Nakiska in the plan to open the resort with top to bottom skiing in the fall.
