JollyJake99 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 In the text portion of the 2014-15 brochure they mention 34 several times, but when I counted the named trails on the map I got 37. If they were to use the same logic that allowed them to give names to "Near East", "James' Way", "Home Again", "Old Main Line" and the "new" "Dromedary", I would suggest that are actually 41 "nameable" trails. First, the section between the bottom of Sunbowl and the Stevenson loading area. We don't ski on weekends, so I can't speak about the interactions of the people trying to get to the mountain coaster and skiiers, but I would propose that this section be named "HEY! I'm skiin' here! I'm skiin' here!". Second, is the section between the Sullivan unloading area and Camel Top. Third, the section between the top of Asp and the section described above. Fourth, the section that is just west of the Raceway Triple loading station. Please feel free to suggest your own names for any of these sections. Quote
Schif Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 I only went to Cback once last year, but for having between 34 and 49 named trails, the place skis very small to me. I was there on a very uncrowded day with no real lift lines, and it got boring after only a few hours. Also, does anyone know if they still do that thing where if you dress up like santa you can ski for free on Christmas Eve? I'm the proud owner of a Santa Suit recently (the reason why is a post all it's own) and if that is still a thing, it might be worth a trip. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 Camelback has some of the best crossover trails in PA. You can spend a whole run just cutting across. That is fun 1 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 Camelback smells like sperm and shame. every ski resort does this. to this day im still trying to figure out where "Upper Switchback" ends and "Lower Switchback" begins at blue The big wide turn in the middle. They need to make razors upper, lower and middle and homestretch into upper and lower. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 they need "upper x-ing" and "lower x-ing" Wow just wow you are getting out of hand. Quote

Hope that thing looks like the textbook definition of Santa. We tried it one year and got denied. They were turning people down and crushing little children's dreams left and right. The customer service at that place is horrendous. Quote
GeorgeCostanza Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 Blue is way worse with this.....trails like connector and chute....chute is about 20 feet long. They should have an upper connector and lower connector though right TP4? Quote

I'm just going off of memory from the trail map. It's at least two football fields long believe that and u forth story my tape measure is only 15 feet long. Quote
