Gore Mountain Conditions

Not sure if this is the right spot for this, but here goes.

Has anyone seen this plan about a new lodge at the ski bowl?

Dumbest idea ever, and that's really saying something when talking about orda.

I think the hope is to attract more warm weather tourism to the ski bowl as well as get the Ski Bowl Village off the ground? Personally I think that lodge is putting the cart before the horse a little, it's still way too difficult to get from the Ski Bowl back to the main base and what about parking at the Ski Bowl?

Thinking of heading up to Gore this weekend! Looks like snow on Saturday will make the weekend skiing great but does anyone think Friday will have decent conditions?

 

[Harvey]

Friday will probably be similar to Thursday, maybe you could monitor conditions for Thursday and make the call?

Stayed on the lower mountain today. Conditions were not terrible but not so good either. Given what Mother Nature threw at the mountain that’s probably pretty good. Things did soften up below the top of the sunway chair. Given past recoveries from such events I would think things will improve each day this week.

I broke my PR for fewest runs in a day at Gore today (and we skied almost everything that was open!), previously held by a first day of the season that consisted of 8 laps of Showcase on tele skis. It was worse than I expected, but not the mountain’s fault, they did what they could with what nature gave them. A wise decision not to try to groom/open any diamonds until tonight when completely frozen and dried out. Pray for that 5 inches on Saturday.

I've agreed with NYS pumping money into all of the winter sports sites - not just the ski areas - but this is too much. Nobody is going to North Creek in July and August to pay $65 each to ride an alpine slide.

Yup, but the 9-holer par 3 course will be busy if the black flies ain’t biting bad.
