VTSU Ski Hill

The VTSU Ski hill is a volunteer-operated tow rope that is free access to anyone who wants. Typically, it is open two nights a week when there is good conditions for a couple hours between 6-9pm. This hill is primarily for the students of VTSU, but will accept anyone who wants to tool around and have some fun. However, this hill is not maintained or groomed, and typically becomes rutted out, skied off, and gathers chunky snow.

We have a solution! The "Groomba" is the first steps to an automated snow groomer for our little ski resort. It is a scaled down groomer (shown on the right) that are used conventionally at ski resorts, and will be the first step in its class to becoming fully autonomous.
