We’re wondering about Gore’s claim that the Cirque Glades are the “longest in the East.” The Burnt Ridge Quad’s vertical is listed as 1432 feet and Cirque covers most of that vertical.
Gore lists the vertical at 1362, so it’s a long run. Another source lists the vertical as 1106 feet and the length at .82 of a mile.
But is the Cirque Glades the longest tree run in the East? There is nothing longer at Mad River? Jay Peak? Cannon? Post what you know below.

There were some guys working, but I would have thought they’d have gotten farther by now:
I tried to take a picture that put the location of the new liftline in context. With the marginal wide angle on my point and shoot…the best I could do was include the existing lift that serves the half-pipe.
