KCSKI Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Says it all...and I'm sure other resorts did the same, but the guns were on last night as of 11pm and all the new lights, at least the ones that have been completed, were on as well. White HED's...gonna be bright up there this season. 4 Quote
Schif Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I guess I better get up there and get my pass picture done sooner than later. Quote
trackbiker Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Great to hear. When are they going to get the winter website up? Trail maps, rates, hours, etc....? Quote
guitar73 Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Wow I can't believe that's not up. yes, it's quite annoying... Quote
guitar73 Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 well, the website is up...but they don't have a revised trailmap, no webcam. they do have a website up and running that explains the new ownership and what not. Quote
Ride Delaware ? Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I give them 3 years and they'll be back on the sale block. KC will have more info (did we ever figure out if he is still working for Sno/Montage?), but now that the water park is built, and the debt is relatively lower due to the bankruptcy and sale, I bet that this ownership group can make a better run at it. If it ends up on the sale block, I think it will be because they want to get rid of it because of appreciation and growth, not because of bankruptcy. Quote

Yeah..as far as the mountain...let's give it a chance ok, and if in the future they do decide to sell it, so what? Didn't CB just get sold....JFBB last year...it's not a big thing anymore as I read about resorts all across the globe changing hands, however the important thing is right now Montage is heading in the right direction. As far as me personally, no I am not working this year for the mountain except for special events and weekday stuff if they need me as I have taken an offer from a firm (not Ski related) to handle weekend management that since it is more in line of what I actually do for a living, I would be a fool to say no to, plus the $$ is good, I won't lie there. However I have agreed to continue helping out and pass along info or questions, such as the one asked about the web site. (hope to have an answer for you shortly). I have fond memories of the place and the only regret I have is the fact that things that I fought for and hoped for are now taking place and I won't be there to be a complete part of it. 3 Quote
Ride Delaware ? Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 No worries KC. As long as you can continue to provide inside information, we dont mind if you work there or not. Nobody can ever know the future, but if they can grow the mountain and water park, and you keep involved in some way shape or form, maybe there will be a job for you sometime in the future. 1 Quote
Schif Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 Light's on and snow flying at Le Mount Tage tonight, as visible from the parking lot of my gym. 2 Quote
Ride Delaware ? Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 They say that the new system they installed several years ago is quite productive. I guess we will know soon. Quote
Schif Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Date has officially been announced on facebook: December 6th. 2 Quote
Kyle Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Montages GD department is taking a step in the right direction Quote
moe ghoul Posted November 27, 2013 Report Posted November 27, 2013 Thanks for keeping us in the loop, KC. All the best, maybe I'll finally get up there this season. Quote
moe ghoul Posted November 27, 2013 Report Posted November 27, 2013 I'm thinking of bringing some gear back from VT and hitting it on the ride home next week, for a coupla hours. I think I can shoot over toward Scranton on 84 off of the NY thru. Quote
