Gore Mountain Conditions

Upper Sleighride and 2B are now terrain parks. Upper Sleighride hasn't seen snowmaking in years, so this will mark a return to it being prioritized.
….and another chunk of natural terrain disappears.

That would be pretty awesome and really help build up NC but I wonder how much use it would really get? I guess we'll see how much use this new Ski Bowl lodge ends up getting.

It woule be used primarily as a parking shuttle, like the old gondola at Killington. Just run a parking shuttle, way cheaper.

Good day on the hill today. Gorgeous sky in the east all morning. Rain held off for as long as we were there , even quite a bit of blue sky. Lots of soft snow and empty trails.

Very cool reflection in the windows, nice pic! So much rain on the drive down 87 yesterday.

Pretty shitty weather, but lapping the gondola is tolerable. Snow is soft on all trails, and coverage is better in some areas than others. Some trails also aren't full width yet.

I lasted till about 2:30. I got enough rain-free time to do 3 laps each on Topridge and Tahawus. I took all my other laps off the gondola. I skied all open trails, and the best was definitely Tahawus which had wall to wall and deep coverage. The worst was definitely 3B which was super thin and muddy. They had also made a bunch of snow on Wild Air but hadn't pushed out any of the piles.

Here are a few more pictures.

Tahawus looks pretty decent , you're a trooper skiing in that crappy weather

The Gore website has the security plan for the World University Games:

Looks like a 2 week PITA in January.

It ain’t just Gore.
Lake Placid has a lot more competitions planned.
Tax $ at work.
Hopefully Belle has everything open to handle the folks who just wanna simply go skiing.

I wonder who Gore had to pay to get these events?
