Also, sausage tortellini soup every day.
This might be worth a demonstration in Protest Area H.

Could someone repost that pic? I think I'm going to be needing it, a lot, in the future.
 
Never. And I was skiing Gore long before you--when Cloud (before smoothing/blasting) was the only* way off the summit.

* or Tannery all the way to the base
I skied it in the 90s.
 
I'm pretty sure before the "new gondola" cloud was the only way down, right?

In practice: yes, but Tannery used to extend all the way down past the (then non-existent) Topridge Chair to the base. I only took it once. It was a lot like the old Juggernaut at Killington. Lots of skating. Twister used to be much, much narrower--like Quicksilver is now.

I did it too.

One time the rope was down on Uncas at the end of the day. I skied down, no lift when i got there, just the rope down on Tannery.
 
The gondola has enough capacity, serves the same terrain plus better summit access, and is a more comfortable ride.
The gondola shoulda went to the top like the redheaded one did.
It’s a pain in the ass to take yer skis off and on a bunch of times.
Just bundle up on AE2 and yer good to go. It’s a winter sport. That thingy
