Atop the mountain today was a sight and sound many felt was doubtful after some of the warmest — and wildest — winter weather some have ever seen: snow making. After a week of nearly 70 degree days, plus extensive damage from an EF-2 tornado, Montage Mountain was forced to close in order to clean up and regroup from the one, two punch. “You know, we’re fighters here at Montage, so we kind of took it with the attitude, ‘we’re going to make this happen and we’re going to put snow down and we’re going to get back open’,” said Jeff Slivinski, Director of Marketing at Montage Mountain. Slivinski says the resort in Scranton plans to open again Saturday morning — a tall order considering power was just restored in full Friday morning.
