Urgent Snow Gun Integration Fundraiser!

Cuchara Mountain Park received a game-changing donation: two commercial snow guns from a major Colorado ski resort! This will significantly boost our snowmaking capacity and extend the ski season.

Our Snow Making Team has already expanded infrastructure to cover more ski runs, including the Bunny Hill. This work depleted our internal budget, and our OEDIT grant cannot cover the remaining $5,000 needed for repairs and installation.

We need your help now to integrate this vital snowmaking technology and get the new guns running by month's end!
