All my family members (sibs, inlaws, cousins, etc) and most of my friends have iphones and my Samsung is the phone always used for group photos. Samsungs have always been better and continue to be better than iphones. I do not know why. A good camera will be better than a Samsung phone, but that...

Those observations might have been taken in perfect conditions of high enough demand and mellow weather to warrant those speeds. Also, MRG claims they run it at 600, but that might be under perfect situations, too. Running slower uses less electricity/less cost. I would guess most places run...

What nonsense. Why 700 cows? Why not 695 or 705 or 500 or 900? Is every farm identical in size and grazing capabilities? Moronic proposal.

NNJ, heavy rain and 65F at 10:25am - on June 10th?????? We have only had the A/C on about 4 nights so far this year. Usually we are in day and night A/C mode by now.

There are more huge visit generator destination ski areas in VT than NY. Currently, there is only 1 area in NY that might pull numbers that would be in the same ballpark as Mt Snow/Stratton/Okemo/Killington/Stowe/Jay type numbers and that would be Holiday Valley in Ellicotville, NY. Even...

Madonna lift stats and reviews from Lift Blog Hall Double installed in 1963, Dopplemayer CTEC did some refurbishment in 2002 including lowering some towers Length 6719ft, 174 chairs Vertical 2150ft Capacity 800 There are 2 different posters who have claimed the Madonna speed they measured is...

Mt Holly Resort, Holly, Mi., has 2 high speed quads serving 350 vertical feet and 100 acres - about the same size as Mt Peter. https://skimtholly.com/ So resting on a chair meets your approval for upgrading from tbar to chair, but getting in more skiing by upgrading to a high speed lift does...

High speed chairs can make sense at any ski area. HS chairs are found all across the northeast, southeast and midwest at ski areas the size of Plattekill and McCauley. Well, using this logic, why did Plattekill replace the T-bar with a double chair? I rode that T-bar for years and it did...

Maybe you never spent much time on a 6000ft (or longer) fixed grip chairs - think Killington Peak double, Stowe Mt Mansfield double/single, Mt Snow main double, Gore East double @ 7300ft long to the Saddle. The shortest lift times were 15 minutes but they were almost always longer due to stops...

According to an article in Lift Blog from 2016, a FGQ with a carpet loader can run at 485ft/min vs 450fpm without a carpet loader according to code. https://liftblog.com/2016/01/02/the-loading-carpet-solution/ I was recently skiing at Banff Sunshine and they have a carpet loader on the Wawa FGQ...

Over the years we have had discussions about contributing. I am sure I am not the only one who would love to help keep this place going and reducing any monetary stress you might have from operations. Speaking only for myself, no strings attached.

Thanks for posting this. There is a lot of interesting data in the article.

Tin barn is about 1 mile south of one of the most important stops on any Finger Lakes wine/beer/spirits tour - FLX Wienery. ;) https://flxwienery.com/

Recording a meeting were there is a reasonable expectation of privacy (like a closed union meeting) is illegal and could be a felony. Committing a felony with "a direct and actual relationship to the performance of the public officer’s existing duties" can lead to the forfeiture of a NYS...

ORDA announced that Bruce Transue was promoted to vice president of Alpine venues operations Nov 26, 2024. He had been with ORDA since 2018. Only 5 months after his promotion to VP running the 3 ORDA ski areas he allegedly retired...

Just unbelievable. Transue should have been fired for cause. I wounder if we will ever find out if he was fired for cause or was he just allowed to 'retire'. The other people involved - Lisa Morgan and Darrin Morgan (related?) should also be fired as should the so called, (unnamed) human...

It looks like that 1974 Cutlass is a real W30/Hurst. It has the Hurst shifter and the swivel bucket seats and I see the hurst logo on the b pillar. What a fun car.

Cool stuff, but you are rooting for laundry. A quick look at the randomly chosen Colgate roster finds 1 member of the team from upstate NY. Maybe the upstate teams are the best at recruiting talent to upstate teams.;) https://colgateathletics.com/sports/mens-lacrosse/roster...

So you are going to show a 40k service bill with zero context and use that as your example? Do you drive 40k miles per year? In the US the yearly mileage average is around 14k miles- meaning the average alltrack driver might need this service every 3 years. The engine in your alltrack has a 10k...
