If I could take this thread back, I'd change it to Belleayre Snowmaking improvements, because Gore and Whiteface are in pretty bad shape right now. Note that things could get better with consistent cold weather and some natural snow.
Unopened snowmaking trails at Whiteface, from top to bottom, and what I think will become of them note that I left out Upper Cloudspin:
Upper Skyward
Lower Skyward
Wilmington
Hoyt's
Lookout Below
Essex (in-progress)
Upper Northway
Upper Mackenzie
Lower Mackenzie
Wilderness
Middle Parkway (doubtful)
Same thing for Gore, and I left out trails like North Star that have pipes that haven't been used in years:
Upper Steilhang (in-progress?)
Lower Steilhang
Hullubaloo (in-progress)
Lower Darby (in-progress)
Santanoni
Little Cloud (in-progress?)
Wood-In (in-progress)
Wood Lots (in-progress)
Chatiemac
Rumor
Lies (in-progress)
Fairview
Sleeping Bear
Pete Gay (doubtful)
Twin Fawns (doubtful)
Echo/Cedars (in-progress, lower section only)
Hedges
Sagamore
Backwoods
Eagle's Nest
Pipeline
Peaceful Valley
Oak Ridge
46er
Yikes that's a lot, at both mountains. At this rate, I'm not sure the ski bowl will open at all, and Lookout might be just Wilmington for the 3rd year in a row, if that. The games absolutely decimated their ability to have a decent ski experience for the public.
