Proposal: New lodge at Parking Lot G, with lift that tops at old Gondola mid

[Milo Maltbie]

Yup. Blow the Dark Sideearly. It faces north.

I think High Peaks opens last because they want the gondola first. The gondola should open last. It’s the most redundant lift at Gore.

They aren't going to open High Peaks early because the trails lack the number of snowmaking hydrants needed for a quick turnaround. They can get expert terrain open sooner with Topridge.

Gore is only getting more popular and as a result more crowded on weekends. The secret is out and Im worried that in 5 years weekend skiing will be hard to schedule. The mountain does eat up the crowds well but getting to the lift is only going to get worse. Last year I parked halfway down the access road more than once. Its ok I can use the exercise but I believe that a new lodge further down the access road with a lift servicing the terrain between Sunway and Topridge could alleviate the rush to the base lodge. I have also noticed that parking at Ski Bowl Village is getting more difficult as well. The proposed lift can put skiers onto Sunway and the base lifts or have trails connecting to Topridge and the triple accessing Bear Mountain. This ide might have already been floated on this site. Just think we need to prepare for massive crowds as the sport continues to grow and with people finding out about the traesure that is Gore mountain.

Or you could just wake up earlier...
