We have had a number of local passholders request an earlier lift opening so that they can get in a few runs before work. Since we GMVS trains early as well, it made the most sense to open GMX for...

If we are down to this complaint, it must have been a good season. ;-)
We think the CR record is 130 for both and that was two years ago. Remember the 100" of snow in December?
The rope was cut and top part pulled down Spring Fling and other piece wrapped about a spool wheel and drawn down the Mall. The Towers will be scrap metal.
Work went well this week with Chair and...
You Ol' cynic, Hawk. Alan, our videographer, has one and we have been watching you. They are still FAA issues relating to the commercial use of Drones.
The trees are almost off. Next comes the Haul Rope. WE have been cutting down the trees on the right side of Valley Traverse where we plan to blast and widen the traverse. We will be attempting to...
We just found out about this too and will be attending the 28th meeting. I would recommend that the Condo Association all have someone there.
What a difference a days makes in the Mountains. Quite a bit of rain before it changed over to some snow. Not as much as he had hoped for. It is "sporty" skiing. Some powder where the wind blew...
We had one on Hot Shot yesterday morning and patrol chase him back into the woods, The hoof prints under the chair were enormous.
Of course, Hawk, and we do not have that make of lift.
They have a mandatory monthly curtailment and has to be done at peak times. In the winter that is usually after 5pm and requires us to pull down snowmaking for a few hours. Last spring it was in the...
I think this was been answered but I will clarify. We are widening Valley Traverse above the entrance to Steins. This will require first cutting down the tress and then blasting the ledge and...
This was announced earlier this year as part of the new skinning policy.
Yes, a flat Mall is necessary to help with the take down of the rope and towers. With warmer temperatures coming in, this looked like the right night to do it.
It was groomed once about nine tears...
The idea is to keep the lift protected by the trees and with a lower unload at the top making it less vulnerable to wind. That is where the current lift is impacted. Also quad chairs are heavier...
Slidebrook is our land. Our policy applies to the 111 trails at Sugarbush.
Spring pass is going on sale next weekend and valid from Monday, March 23rd to the end of the season. $199. Shady Jay said what I would have. I believe we will be skiing long into April and will...
Preparing the permits now. Need detailed drawings from Dopplemayr for submission as well as a lot of detail concerning demolition of lifts, reconstruction
Of base area, and blasting rock at top of...
Here's what happened. An electrical fault tripped the E-Brake and we could not get a reset so had to use
The auxiliary diesel to clear the lift. It was in the new drive and not apparent what caused...
Yesterday was way below last year when the snow really started. This weekend will definitely be slower that last year especially Saturday when we had our busiest day ever. The Weather Channel has...
Stan, Will do! Thanks.
Getting to this late but let me clarify how we report snow total. We have three stakes at LP to measure snowfall. One is outside of our dispatch office in the base area, mid is behind Allyns' Lodge...
I appreciate the passion and support of many of you but not the continued cynicism of some of you, so this will be my last lift comment for the season. ALmost all of the lifts have been running well...
I responded earlier under another post but will repeat here. The PLC in GMX had a programming bug. This has to
be done by the lift manufacturer, Poma. They were working on a lift at a nearby ski...
Nice post. There was a bug in the program that was automatically slowing the lift. Poma has to do reprogramming on something like this. They were at Killington all day yesterday dealing eith a lift...
