Guess a ski area in three clues

bdfreetuna · Jan 23, 2015

1. The slogan "The Mountain That's Not For Everyone" was quickly replaced with a more family-oriented campaign.
2. The only glade on the mountain was converted into an expert trail boasting in excess of a 30 degree slope.
3. Only the backside of one other ski area can be seen from the top, and that area is no longer in operation.

If the answer is Jiminy Peak then 2of the 3 clues are wrong, and I have never heard the slogan before, even working there for many years. I'm assuming the glade you are refering to is North Glade. But there is also Hot Wheels Glade there.
I am guessing the closed area you speak of is Brodie. But you can also easily see Bousquet as you are skiing along on West Way.

Mohawk. I remember you showed me some of the old rope tow lines there.

Hang on I'll show you a pic.

And the former "glade" that turned into a trail was Jericho. 1986/1987 season they advertised this "improvement"

That sounds like it could be Bromley (as well as Mohawk).
