36 hours? 2 feet? entire resort? c'mon................ really? if that is true then they will be well ahead of every one in no time at all. Cool. Competition is good.

 

Stratton have some claims on their website that their system can bury three football fields in a foot of snow every hour, so assuming Sno has the power and will to do this (they have more guns than Stratton) 36 hours to cover a relatively small mountain seems reasonable.

 

It would be cool to see this in action if it's true, it would also mean they could blow a decent base whenever they wanted / needed to during the season.

Nice Pics!

I can't believe this weather either. It wasn't this warm in December when I lived in SC! Not the best year to buy a ski area in the N.E.!

Is the white shuttle in the picture a trailer type vehicle or does it have a motor? Also, is there a place to load skis on the outside of it?

I guess it's what they meant by a "new tram". It isn't motorized, so it needs to be pulled. You have to carry skis/boards on. The orange buses that they've used the last two seasons were a billion times better than having to use the stairs, but it was a pain in the butt to get up and down the bus steps with little kids and gear. And the slots on the bus sides didn't hold really wide tail skis or even skis with race plates---so they had to be carried onto the bus. These trams are also much better than Elk's cattle cars, since you just step right up to where you sit, rather than having to climb around the pipes and all.

Nice pics ski. If I were you I would have taken the "Welcome to Montage" sign. It would make a great decoration.

It's bigger than it looks and we drove over in my wife's goofy little car. But, yeah, we even talked about swiping it.

Haha that looks like death to me. I wonder how it slides. It looks like a small down flat if you look at it good.
