    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I think the hope is to attract more warm weather tourism to the ski bowl as well as get the Ski Bowl Village off the ground? Personally I think that lodge is putting the cart before the horse a little, it's still way too difficult to get from the Ski Bowl back to the main base and what about...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I did some research on this once and it seems like most years they try to stay open until early to mid April. But like Harv said it is all weather dependent. Last year we skied the first week of April but there were only a few trails left and it was very marginal conditions.

    Poll: The Impact of the Epic Pass

    It was just a short commentary on Vail and Epic pass. not a new pod. I liked his idea of declaring a home mountain and giving people limited access to non home mountains.

    Poll: The Impact of the Epic Pass

    I think the mega pass is good for skiing overall. More access to more mountains at cheaper prices. I know many people that used to ski 3-5 days a year that are skiing 10 or more now. That is a good thing right? I would love if ORDA partnered with a major Colorado or Utah mountain to offer some...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    9 days of skiing, well done! We had a great week as well, thanks to all the Gore staff for making it happen! Mother nature threw us a curve ball early in the week but they kept the conditions top notch, and we closed out the week on a high note! We were at 4 out of 6 days on the hill and...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    We opted not to ski today for a variety of reasons, just took a ride to the transfer station to drop off some garbage. Line of cars was backed up to Stewarts on 28! Parking at ski bowl was plentiful though!

    Random NYSkiBlog Stuff That You Might Not Care About

    Shouldn't we be encouraging more people to the mountains? To enjoy the outdoors and experience to joy we all get to experience being out here? Safely and responsibly of course, which NYSB does at every turn in my opinion. As much as I love skiing a quiet and empty mountain with fresh lines and...

    Random NYSkiBlog Stuff That You Might Not Care About

    Many of Gore's problems? I don't see too many problems on my end. NYSB is a great asset to Gore. Brings a lot of like minded skiers together, people who care about the mountains and the sport. It brings quality information to the very people you want to see at your home mountain. I made Gore...

    Wow!! Weather and conditions really turned fast after lunch, had a great morning of spring conditions and no crowds. Felt like April, sadly it's only Feb! We called it a day around 2, clouds were rolling in fast and the mashed potatoes were getting lumpy!! Next few days should be interesting...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Warmth today was very nice, spring conditions but stayed good all day. I continue to be impressed with the conditions the last few weekends. Thanks to all the groomers for their great work this season! Bare spots were starting to show up on lower mountain, we really need Friday's storm to...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Sounds awesome! I had such a great weekend, I could barely ski Sunday I was so sore from Sat! I had to keep reminding myself my ski partner Sat was 15 years younger! Ski Bowl is such a great trick on days like Sat, unfortunately we had to brave the access road line to drop the kids off at...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    So many great laps yesterday. Snow was awesome early morning, so light. Kids loved getting fresh tracks on twister in the morning and then over to sleeping bear. Wind was gnarly on high peaks. Straight brook glades was fun and Tahawus is always a fan favorite. Snow got heavy and pushed around...

    Glad Hawkeye was good today, it was a sheet of ice yesterday and Friday. When we left North Creek mid day it seemed like the mixed precip had changed to snow for a while.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    We had a good day today, Open Pit was a nice addition and helps move the crowds away from Cloud. We caught Hullabaloo and Lower Darby yesterday just as the rope was dropping, that was a ton of fun. They were still nice and soft today. Hawkeye really needs some fresh snow. I've never seen it...

    Ski firsts are more memorable than than those other firsts, like walking and talking. Or is that just my family? ?

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    With Hawkeye open people seemed to spread out and things got much better by Cloud. Hawkeye was a lot of fun yesterday, we were able to catch it just after they dropped the rope. This morning it was pretty icy and firm, it got warm as the day went on and everything softened up. Was spring...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    It was a great morning, the 1-2 inches of fresh snow really helped. Things got a little hectic as the day went on. Crowds were biggest i've ever seen in my few short years at Gore. Too many people on the summit filtering down to just Cloud. We really need Hawkeye to open. As my son said...

    Keep checking back, if we get more snow and they can open more terrain they should release more tickets.
