JACKSON, Wyo. (AP) - Jackson Hole Mountain Resort’s season is ending this weekend. But the resort has already turned its attention to the next season of fluffy stuff.

The Jackson Hole News & Guide reports that the resort has asked Teton County for permission to install an 18-inch water line to pump up the snowmaking for next season.

The resort says the addition would take its snowmaking system from 4,000 gallons of water per minute to 6,500 gallons of water per minute.



The pipeline would be connected to the resort’s primary pump house, on the lower part of the mountain.

The utility permit goes before the Teton County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday. If approved, work is scheduled to start this spring and the new system will be ready to roll by November.
