• Low Glare and Rapid Diffusion : Nano-particle reflectors and Vari-Beam® technology diffuse light, eliminating hot spots and flicker, ensuring uniform illumination, and allowing flexible aiming (including uphill ) without compromising safety or compliance. • Energy Efficiency : A 300W Snow-Bright™ fixture replaces a 1,000W MH or 1,200W HPS, reducing energy consumption by over 85% and in-rush current by 95%. • Longevity and Sustainability : Rated for 100,000 hours, Snow-Bright™ fixtures are fully recyclable, minimizing landfill contributions and maintenance costs. • Dark Sky Compliance : The technology meets stringent ordinances by minimizing blue light emissions and light trespass, as validated by installations near sensitive ecological and astronomical sites. Unlike LEDs, which suffer from strobe effects, icing issues, and toxic components, Snow- Bright™ provides glare-free, high-contrast illumination that enhances terrain perception for skiers and racers while adhering to environmental standards. (See YouTube video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHN_io0n59w ) Case Studies: Successful Dark Sky Compliance The following case studies illustrate how Snow-Bright™ lighting has enabled ski areas to achieve Dark Sky compliance while improving visibility and reducing environmental impact: Snow King, Jackson Hole, WY Snow King Mountain, located within the Town of Jackson Hole and bordering the National Forest Service, upgraded from 1,000W MH and HPS fixtures to 300W Snow-Bright™ lamps to support nighttime race training. The retrofit, evaluated by the Jackson Hole Land Trust, Teton Conservation District, and National Forest Service, achieved a 75% reduction in energy use and a 96% drop in in-rush current. The installation met strict Dark Sky standards, exhibiting less light impact than amber lamps, and secured grants from the Teton Conservation District and incentives from Rocky Mountain Power. The project’s success highlights Snow-Bright™’s ability to balance environmental compliance with operational needs in ecologically sensitive areas.
