    Ascutney - Crotched HSQ

    Any word on things happening here? I saw the sale was finalized in February. I would think they are going to need the entire construction season to remove what's at Crotched, disassemble the lift at Ascutney, move and install it at Crotched. Clear summit trails, install lights and snowmaking.

    I'm pretty sure, Joshua is an instructor at Crotched.

    I wonder if the other Ascutney lifts are going to be removed.

    Is there any hope for Ascutney? Things look grim now that the North Peak Express is gone

    Not grim at all, the Triple is a better lift for that mountain. As I understand it, they often didn't even run the quad mid-week.

    The "Rocket" ties in well with their space theme... in addition to, well...
