It's been a banner year for NH ski resorts. The season started early.and will end late. Almost anywhere you go in NH, there's still a deep snow base on the mountains. Hello, I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to NH Outlook. We're coming to you from the Gunstock Ski Resort in Guilford. Here and all over NH snowfall records have been "shattered". NH's all time record is 122 inches. Concord is already at 112 inches and the National Wx Service says we're not done yet. Typically, on the last Sunday in March the smaller resorts close down -- but this year.almost everyone has extended the season. All that white, translates into a lot of green. Winter recreation represents about 20-percent of the state's annual tourism business. In fact, NH is among the nation's top 5 states when it comes to the ski industry's "economic" impact. Ski spending in NH, including lodging and meals exceeded 719-million dollars last year. They're still calculating this season's take. More on that and the season coming up. Spending at the state's 29 ski areas -- has a major impact on state revenues. A good year and good revenues will help as lawmakers look for new ways to pay for school funding. As Outlook's Richard Ager reports. its been a "busy" season for debating the issue. NEW TRACK FOR OPEN IF NEEDED |

DES.reports total annual ski spending in NH.including lodging and meals, exceeds 420 million dollars. New Hampshire's ski industry represents 8.6 percent of total direct visitor spending, approximately $190 million. Total ski spending, including indirect spending such as meals, overnight accomodations and the like, totals $420.7 million. The success of these activities spills over into other business sectors, like food services, lodging and retail shopping. After a comparatively dry season in the winter of 2006-2007, it is crucial for all snow-reliant businesses to bounce back this year-and they appear to be doing so.
