THE LINE TO jump on the Sheehan snaked all the way to the snowmaking pond.
A SETTING SUN casts a pink glow in the sky as a crescent moon rises last Friday, Dec. 15, ahead of a stunning fireworks display and launch of the Middlebury Snowbowl’s night skiing. Skiers and riders will be able to ski from 4 to 9 p.m. every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights throughout the ski season, weather permitting. Independent photo/Steve James
THE PREMIERE OF night skiing at the Middlebury Snowbowl in Hancock this past Friday was a big hit. About 1,000 skiers and boarders came to try out the new four-seater Sheehan Lift. Thankfully, it carried people up the mountain much faster than the three- seater it replaced. Independent photo/Steve James

A CROWD OF about 1,000 people gathered to celebrate the introduction of night skiing at the Middlebury Snowbowl this past Friday. After a fireworks display that culminated with a burst of lights illuminating the three trails under the new four-person Sheehan lift, the lift jumped to life. The first four skiers said it all with the sign: “Lights. Lift. Action.” Independent photo/Steve James
