    Gore Mountain Conditions

    We got first gondola this morning and then right onto straightbrook which we were surpsied was open so early. Hawkeye was groomed to perfection. Top 10 run of the year. We had to leave early to head back downstate for a basketball game. At 10:30 people were still walking up the access road after...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    There’s a spot on Eagles Nest where it cuts off to a snowmobile path and some power lines , we saw a bunch of tracks going off this direction and against my better judgement decided to follow them. Half way down through deep relatively untracked snow we come across a teenager who lost his ski...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Excellent day, spent most of it in the woods. Caught the dark side rope drop this morning and first tracks on Macintyre. First time ever skiing Cave Glades and Abernake. My son said it was his most fun day of skiing ever.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I do find Gore has more closed trails than look like they could be open than most other mountains and also more of those trails are tracked up by poachers. Seems like a reasonable policy.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    we could not find any glades yesterday, burnt also wasn’t open. Admiringly we did leave around 1 as being out in the freezing drizzle starting at 8 took its toll.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Picture of Hawkeye early this morning. A ungroomed Wild air was a great first run of the day. freezing drizzle has moved in now making everything pretty miserable.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Conditions have been a pleasant surprise all week. Twister first thing in the morning has delivered every day. Got out early today for first chair and skied through 3:30, 24.5k vertical. Most I can remember doing. Generally don't track it though. The kids have been having fun with the slopes...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Wow, 279, good for you! Chati was great. the whales were almost comical, I had to take a pic of them. Just me and my 13yr old son today. We got in 18 runs, almost 20 miles of skiing, hit every inch of the mountain, summit down to the ski bowl and back. Very fun day. Tahawus glades, Darkside...

    Poll: What changes would you like to see at your home mountain?

    My home mountain is Gore, being skiing there 20+ days for the last few years, prior to that was more of a nomad. Learned as a kid at Thunder Ridge (Big Birch), Jiminy Peak and Stratton. Taught the kids at Mt Peter. For mostly selfish reasons I would love it if ORDA entered into some sort of...

    New Gore Trail

    based on what I saw last weekend there was plenty of snow on the trail, they were working hard on making enough snow on Sagamore leading up to the entry to Backwoods but it also looked like paradox/eagles nest needed a lot of work. I have to assume all the snow this week should those open and...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I've never seen so many snow guns on one trail before. It was impressive. Conditions, besides Echo, were great all day. Despite the crazy access road line I thought the crowds weren't bad today. It was nice to see the entrance to Backwoods, it was much higher up Sagamore than I was...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    We got about 2 inches last night but it stopped snowing around 9 and woke up to no new snow. They it started coming down decently hard around 8am and kept snowing all morning,maybe another 2-3 fell at the mountain. Conditions were really nice, like TomCat said, snow was heavy. You needed some...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    driving up earlier today it looked like Sagamore still had a lot of dirt spots on it, but you could see the snow makers going up top. Would be awesome if it could open this weekend, but so far this season it seems like most ropes drop after the weekend. Perhaps there are better odds of Burnt...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    unfortunately most of the competitors are not staying in/around NC. They're all at the Great Escape lodge and take shuttles too and from the mountain. I believe that was by the direction of the state police, they wanted the competitors all in one place for security purposes.
