Exit 19? Are you talking the Ambrosia Diner just off the Northway going north? There are also a handful of chargers in the Aviation Mall parking lot... Target and Penneys end. Same Exit 19.

I am probably not the one to make a true assessment BUT I felt there was no overall positive vibe to Gore today. Yes, It was a positive day for me as explained above. Yet the feeling was one of restraint. No shuttle running gave the feeling they were not expecting to be busy, or ready to be...

Update... I had a nice first day of the season (for me) at Gore. The Bear Cub Quad was lightly used for the first couple of hours. But by 10:30 or so, there were some official lesson groups, plus the usual scattering of mom & dad with kids 'family' learn to ski outings. Bear Cub Quad is SO...

Good news... for me. Bear Cub Quad and Sunway Chair are open tomorrow. My guess is Friday counts as a weekend? Now if I can just beat the crowd up the Northway....

West is closer. West actually is trying a 'soft' opening this weekend. My problem with West is the congestion at the bottom of the mountain which West calls The Face. Years ago it was once a wide open area. But over the years the original learner area was replace with a multiple run Tubing park...

I have always thought a perk that could be offered to Pass Holders like myself would be a half price lesson. Instead they offer me a free rental? What pass holder really needs a free rental? I am a senior skier and a cautious skier BUT at one time my son, daughter and I skied nearly every...

Must not have been in the budget... You build a multi million dollar Bear Cub Quad lift then do not use it or make it visible. I will add the Bear Den at Whiteface has its very own designated camera showing the learning area and Falcon Flyer lift. Certainly encourages people to go there... it...

No fence, but last year they did decide to have skiers and boarders only go LEFT as they got off Bear Cub Quad. It meant you went down a short ramp before entering Lower Sunway. Huge improvement versus the congestion caused by learner groups and boarders booting in when you could go to the RIGHT...

Yes, I could forgive short staffing.... maybe. But my experience is they will start spinning Sunway Chair instead of Cub Quad! Which I hopefully addressed.... That jump, like Cork said, to the FULL Sunway Trail off Sunway Chair is a bit much. Have I skied it ...yes Sometimes, even from Ruby off...

As a cautious weekday skier my frustrations are growing with Gore's lift choices... Today I shared my thoughts with Gore's management... " I want to share with you a frustration I have with which lifts Gore spins weekdays. In previous years snow coverage might have kept Bear Cub Quad closed, but...

In a perfect world, I would lap Lower Sunway off Bear Cub Quad. Then break for lunch and head over to Ski Bowl and try Village Slopes for awhile then head home. One hour drive to and 1 hour drive home from Gore. Doable... and thanks for the heads up re: start time of Village Chair. BUT that...

I am surprised at how FEW skiers here use this forum for Whiteface Conditions? What site should I be following for WFace discussions? In the meantime, I find it baffling management has Falcon Flyer lift and all the trails in Bear Den Lodge area up and running... but can not get the WEBCAM...

The old adage (for most of us), Once you see SNOW in your backyard, the ski season starts must be true for a lot of people. I just peeked at the Base Web cam and both the Gondola and Express were quite busy at 8:30 ! I do not brave the weekend crowds but hope to make a weekday trip next week...

Thank you. I agree there are some sections of Sunway where I have second thoughts, especially when they re route me down Otter Slide as though it was a mild green trail. Last year it appeared to me Gore made an attempt to re-route a lot of the better skiers away from that section of Lower...

Old, whimpy skier question.... I have never skied at Ski Bowl How would the Village Slopes compare: To Lower Sunway off Bear Cub Quad at Gore To Otter, Moose, or Bobcat at Whiteface? I ask because weekdays Bear Cub Quad is often not spinning. but sometimes Village Slopes lift at Ski Bowl is... I...

I follow both Gore and Whiteface Reports... Am I the only one here who favors the Snow Reports from Gore ? Why, because they get them out early! Whiteface is usually not out until the morning of... I have to decide between a 1 hour or 2 hour drive... So knowing the day before is a huge plus for...

I think I remember correctly... Last year they did not cover the 'cutoff' that went over to Lower Sunway? It was even labeled as going to Lower Sunway but was mostly bare rocks. I know because I had to inch my way thru to get to Lower Sunway. I was not alone by the way...

I did visit the Webcam at Whiteface.... only the Legacy Lodge cam was working live. From what I could see from the webcam the turnout was fairly light. Of course they could all be in line some where else, like last Saturday. Hopefully someone will post a photo or to from Gore....

I had no plans to ski BUT did want to see the opening day crowd or lack of.... So the Base Area Webcam works at 5:47 AM BUT will not work live for the entire morning and early afternoon so far.
