Plattekill Conditions

[TheGreatAbyss]

Expert have kids. I am more than happy to noodle around on green trails early season with my kids.

I will be too when my kid gets older, but we're the exception. And even then I expect my kid to be able to handle the hard stuff within a few years

I know Gore goes after a green route from the top of the gondola very early.

Gore's snow making capability has vastly improved over the past few years. They're pretty good about getting Uncas Hawkeye and even Topridge open fairly quickly. But yeah, they usually start with Showcase and Sunway

I had a convo about this with Danielle a few years ago. For Plattekill, beginners are the key to a successful Christmas Holiday season. Pound for pound, the magic carpet and teaching slope are KEY. Even if there is a monsoon on Christmas day, if the teaching slope is open it makes a big difference.

At other mountains I don't know the players as well, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same. What does Belle do? I know Gore goes after a green route from the top of the gondola very early.

More than conventional wisdom, I think it's years of experience.

Lazlo talked about why he isn't interested in Indy with Stuart a while back. Plattekill is doing reciprocal agreements where there is essentially no paperwork when someone shows up. That's simpler even though there is no new revenue unless the person buys food and/or drinks. The idea is that a season pass holders at the partners get 3 free tickets. At least that's the usual offer.
