Mountain Productions’ largest system, the Mountain Truss system, is available in a 4-post configuration.
Recently, our crew traveled to Hunter Mountain Ski Resort in Hunter, NY to build the 4-post Mountain Truss for the Mountain Jam and Taste of Country festivals occurring on back-to-back weekends in June.
The 4-post Mountain Truss system offers an impressive load bearing capacity, but with less trailers of equipment and less labor than the regular 8-post Mountain Truss system.
With an 80’ opening and scaffold wings, the main stage for Hunter Mountain stood for both Mountain Jam and Taste of Country events. Along with the main stage, Mountain Productions provided a rolling roof front of house with a spot tower, 5 VIP risers and an ADA platform with a long access ramp through the woods. An SL-250 mobile stage with custom wing scrims was set for the Mountain Jam festival.
Check out this great picture gallery of the stage build. Thanks to James Steelman for capturing these dynamic images:
