No Snow? No Problem!

You Can’t Ski Without Snow

Ski resorts depend on snow; thus, a lack of snow directly affects the revenue and expenses of that ski resort. Every ski resort hopes to get an early start to the season, or have an abundance of snow for the Holiday period. Unfortunately, Mother Nature doesn’t always cooperate. Despite this, a GuaranteedForecast® snow protection contract can help control costs associated with snowmaking, revenue shortfalls caused by poor conditions and other weather driven costs, expenses or difficulties. With snow protection, you can take Mother Nature out of the equation.

You Choose the Type of Snow Coverage You Need

Seasonal snow-accumulation coverage

This type of protection can insure against too little snow leading up to and including the peak ski periods, or for the entire winter season. If the sum of the daily snowfall during the coverage period does not exceed the level defined in the contract, a payment is made to the contract holder. You choose the total amount of snow that will be needed to support operations, and the contract will be designed to make a payment in the event that snowfall level is not reached.

Event/promotional snow protection

Is there a large ski competition at your resort? Or perhaps, you just want to insure the key holiday weekends or a special promotional opportunity? Special events and weekends are highly profitable times and undesirable weather could be detrimental to the bottom line. A snow contract leaves you in control. Additionally, unique promotions can be designed around weather events to increase revenues, such as a partial or full refund for early season pass purchasers or those that book their winter get-away far in advance if it snows twelve inches or more on New Year’s Day. These weather promotions can drive sales during periods that have not historically produced high sales volumes. We can provide snow protection that covers those specific times of highest concern and support weather related promotional activities

Seasonal temperature protection

Do you traditionally make snow prior to the start of the ski season, and have found in some years past that warm temperatures have made those efforts challenging? We offer a temperature contract to offset additional costs caused by excessive warmth, or even lost revenues resulting from unfavorable snow, or snowmaking conditions, caused by high temperatures.

Unique Snow Coverage

If your needs are even more unique, GuaranteedWeather® has solutions for you as well. Has rain caused issues in the past? We offer a rain contract to address those concerns. Perhaps you are concerned about a lack of daily snowfall AND temperatures that are too warm while the ski resort is operating; we offer solutions that can cover both of these concerns, or any other combination of weather driven contingency, in a single weather contract.
