Castlerock Pub is great if you like coming to beautiful Green Mountains to sit in a basement.

HUGE PROPS for Win and Co. on the new pass pricing and MC association!
I'll be renewing all my passes for next year. In doing so, I'll be sending just as many dollars to SB as for this year. But,...
Apparently having the temerity to express a few opinions disapproving of SB managerial decisions gets you an invitation to leave the place from the big man himself. Good grief.
You should know...
Re passes (SB, Epic, MAX, Mountain Collective): I am extremely seriously considering not renewing my family's passes for next year. My youngest just turned 13 and her pass next year will up my...
Observations: SB makes snow on a trail to get it open and continues to make snow until the depth is such that the trail can reasonably be expected to remain covered for the season. After that it is...
Scanning is a nuisance. You have to fish out your pass to present it, the scan guns usually take a few tries to read the barcode, and the scan personnel gum up the lines (and mostly add no particular...
Thanks, cdskier and djd66, for taking my post in the humorous spirit in which it was intended. I read the post this morning and realized it could be read as personally insulting. I didn't mean it...
$2,200 SB passes v. free Stowe passes??? Do you have brain damage or do you have some sort of fetish for Win Smith? You might just represent the 1% --- of Win adulators that is. Good grief.
The...
Yes, let people flee from Sugarbush! That is a good plan, except those people that we see as constituting crowds and trackers up of woods are also what businesses refer to as customers.
No, cdskier, Epic is not paying for those things. And neither is Sugarbush. Your point is irrelevant because it is a false equivalence.
Really? $809 unlimited, unrestricted skiing at:
Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone, Park City, Heavenly, Northstar, Kirkwood, Wilmot, Afton Alps, Mt. Brighton, Perisher (2017 access) and...
Vail East (Stowe) is going to steal a lot of business with their Epic pass. MAX pass will continue to poach the skiers uncommitted to a single mountain.
Why would SB sell a full-up pass for $1,779...
DONE DEAL!
Vail entered into an agreement to buy Stowe today, and will add Stowe to its $809 EPIC PASS next year. Unlimited skiing for $809 and it also gets you access to all their other resorts....
The warm temperatures and paucity of natural snowfall have been incompatible with good ski conditions and terrain openings. I'd wager that Sugarbush ops is going all out with snowmaking to compensate...
Anyone have a date for when the towers are going to be installed? Doubt I'll be in the area, but I'd love to see them airlifted into place.
Thanks for posting the pics, cdskier. Very much appreciated.
The slide looks like it will make a perfect ski trail. It is in an area that gets a ton of snow, relatively speaking. If the snow can cover the rocks on Rumble, it'll cover that slide just fine.
Thanks for the update, Hawk. Appreciate it. Hope you are having a good summer.
From a normally reliable source, I have the following to report: "Win is going to pour blood from a live chicken on NRX in hopes of getting it running again." Thanks, N---.
What the hell happened to the Castlerock chair? It looks like a chair fell off the cable at the lower bull wheel from the webcam.
In the latest installment of the Lift Breakdown Chronicles, the GMX has, by not rotating, rotated into the lead role of dysfunctional protagonist in a dystopian tale in which the snowy, idyllic...
Great GTG. Nice talking to HowieT2, Gostan, Chewbarka, ManyTurns, and Treeskier. Hawk you no-show bastard. :-o Good skiing. Good times.
Duke hat. Orange shirt.
She must have thought you were meeting your usual internet friends. :-P
Can you imagine what a disaster it would have been if Super Bravo had the breakdowns that NRX has had over the last few years? We are fortunate not to have lived that circumstance.
