Link not working.

It’s too short to use as an upgrade of Topridge. It would fit on the North Side, but wouldn’t be fast enough for Sno. Maybe it should just stay where it is.

Four days until Opening Day ⚾️

It’s not a snow report, it’s a marketing report. I don’t think that whoever prepares and posts that document before 5 pm the day before obtains any information from patrol, ops or even the calendar already up on the web site. It is strictly “good news only.”

Next time just call an Uber. Or park at Ski Bowl in the morning. It’s a multi-peak ski area just like Vail. Why shouldn’t it take that long?

Ultimate first world problem: Oscar winning actress and retired doctor collide while participating in an elitist recreational activity at a resort which only admits one percenters and sue each other.

No,sorry, missed it. Was busy catching up on back episodes of Days of Our Lives.

1. Long glades are part of what makes Gore unique. We already had one butchered this year. GFY. 2. See #1. 3. Echo is already 50yards wide and was created by emasculating Twister Glade. See #1. 4. We’re not building you a tunnel. Maybe we could have a helicopter on standby for you. Gore is what...

And free beer for seniors, too.

Report says gondola, most unreliable lift on the mountain, down for maintenance (good day for it, almost no one there in the rain), but North Quad keeps chugging along, pausing only to load those pesky little kids.

It was a Baby Ruth.

I didn’t realize how long it had been, but it was 2015 that I was there for a weekend officiating at an event. Then the only restaurants left were Wilderness Inn (now closed) and Hungry Trout. Italian place closed, Steinhoffs closed (been going there since the 70s. Hope the dioramas are...

“The lodge will support business conferences and corporate outtings. It will also serve as a model for the four additional hotels to be located at the Ski Bowl Village at Gore Mountain.” Five hotels? That’s a lot of poop!

High school xc is certainly not sustainable if individual school districts have to make snow to have a venue, but it’s great to have a state facility with it so they can go there when there’s no natural snow at closer venues. Queensbury, Glens Falls, Saratoga and Shen, maybe others, are all...

Trail on the existing service road from top of BR to Twister. Loss of glades = 0 Tunnels required = 0 Cost = some dynamite and bulldozer time.

Echo is closed a lot for racing, midweek and weekends, and is a huge PITA on mob scene Saturdays. But no one seems to be complaining on this thread about that, cuz it‘s alpine? A much simpler solution than destroying Cirque Glade (which is on the wrong side of Echo to get to main base anyway) to...

If there was a food concession or vending machines there during events they would be making a ton of money. Haven’t you seen the alpine racer kids eat in the main lodge? Those racers and families know there’s nothing at the Ski Bowl except a bathroom and a place to sit while you boot up, they...

Yup, barely a handful. Check out some of these handfuls: https://goremountain.com/nordic-center-events/ Or the handful of finishers at these events: https://underdogtiming.com/2023-race-results In case you didn’t get it - SARCASM ALERT!!! Based on relative number of skier-days, including anyone...

Thanks for proving my point. The Ski Bowl expansion is not just for your alpine skiing pleasure or lack thereof. MVH will be the venue for national and international nordic compedition,but Ski Bowl is already being used not only for regional high school and other Nordic racing, but for area...

OPRHP doesn’t run any of those events, and there’s no state money going into them. They are just providing links.
