SnoPark | England

Whilst working in both Canada and the UK I have built this huge passion for the white blanket of trust known as snow.

Although I love the snow, here in England only see about a weeks worth of the stuff every year and when it comes people in the masses find excuses not to go into work to have fantastic snow fun!

I have formed this blog in hope that other snow entusiasts from the UK could help this dream become a reality.

How?

By bringing the IDE SnowMaker to the Uk it means that we could supply local ski hills with snow all year round. The snow is produced at a small enviromentally friendly production site at the top of one of the planned sites and pushed, moved and formed into pistes.
If you watch the featured YouTube videos above you can see the production and how it has worked in current European Resorts to ensure long seasons and mines in Africa.
The cost of the IDE Snowmaker is 10x cheaper than the cost of building another snowdome but can produce upto 920 Tons of snow chemical free per day which means the hill will always be topped up.
The snow keeps for a week so eventually a method of delivering the snow to other hills will be possible.
We've formed this blog to get help and support...

Calgary Olympic Park

 
Calgary Olymipic Park is based on just a hill side no bigger than the hills found in England. The South and North Downs, South East England have hills that exceed 200m which is larger than the Olymipic park in Calgary, Canada.
With the IDE Snow Maker producing 680-920 tons of snow a day a hill like this would bring jobs for lifties park shapers, instructors and more.
Not to mention the all year round access to snow sports.
