    Ski Bowl 3.0 at Gore

    They built a handful of single family homes and tried to sell more with the covid demand bump but the price point was very high for the area and I don't think any were built. Gore never built the new trails that would make them ski in/out. Maybe Ski Bowl 3.0 will revive it.

    New Gear for this Season

    I ski them short, which I think may have slightly less underfoot. I'm 5'7 and ski the 163. I primarily ski them at Gore. I don't think I would want any wider. My guess is the Brahma would carve a little better but the Rustlers allow me to follow the kids into the trees and the park with ease...

    New Gear for this Season

    I had to pay to ship my 2019 pair to them and they sent me a brand new 2020 pair, which immediately chipped as well and I decided I didn't care enough to try for the warranty replacement again. I was very impressed with the customer service at Blizzard.

    New Gear for this Season

    I've been thoroughly enjoying my Blizzard Rustler 9s for the last 3-4 years, with the exception of terrible top sheet construction that chips like crazy on two different sets of skis (had Blizzard send me a new pair after the first pair got all messed up after 1 season). They are very light and...

    Summer Weather 2023

    Had some hail earlier in North Creek. Everything is flowing like April. Went kayaking on Schroon lake earlier today, my first time there, very beautiful lake, the water level was super high. We were wadding in 2-3 feet of water where supposedly it's usually dry beach.

    Ski Bowl 3.0 at Gore

    Does adding snowmaking capacity at the Bowl mean they have to reduce capacity someplace else or end snowmaking earlier in the season because they will reach the limits set by the state? Is it even correct that they stop in Feb because of limits on water use in the park?

    Ski Bowl 3.0 at Gore

    Gore just updated their website. MORE SNOWMAKING AT THE SKI BOWL! We’re expanding our snowmaking at the Ski Bowl this year. By adding a new valve house at the top of our Hudson Triple, we’ll be able to make snow on multiple trails simultaneously. We’ll also new snow guns for the first time on...

    ORDA Funding

    Really interesting article, as someone who prides myself on financial efficiency but also someone who wants to see Gore, North Creek and the rest of the Adirondacks thrive I am conflicted. My biggest worry is that one day a different administration comes into Albany and cuts off ORDA and...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    March and early April were so memorable. Got the entire family skiing in November for the first time ever. That was fun. And despite the complaints I thought the WUG games were fun. Watching the Big Air finals was exciting and sitting in the Tannery watching people hit the massive kickers...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I think today was my last day of what turned into an excellent season, started out slow but really came on strong in March and April. Still so much snow, hopefully we still get updates through May. Rumor and Lies were tons of fun today. I have a feeling the mountain will end up closing this...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    That waterfall off Burnt has become one of my favorite spots on the mountain. Not sure how I never really noticed it until this year.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I couldn't believe how well everything skied right up until last chair. Echo was my run of the day. Rumor and Lies opened late morning and were great. Morning was like mid winter conditions at points and afternoon was nice and soft everywhere. Sad that this is the last weekend for Burnt...

    Poll: What is your mix of Peak vs Off Peak?

    Interesting idea for a poll. I'm impressed how many people here are able to get out mid week. Do you think that is more a product of the type of person/skier attracted to talking about skiing on a NY centric blog all day or does that extend to the real world? I put down 90% but it's probably...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I was very disappointed in the conditions last weekend, shame about the rain turned to boilerplate. Now it's raining again but snow on the way? They're predicting mixed precip for sat, but will it be all snow on the mountain?
