NELSAP areas you have skied.

[twinplanx]

that would be woodbury ski area, which use to be know as woodbury ski and raquet. the area is still open, and in no better shape, i skied there with my brother a few times over the past few years, we went this year as they had night skiing on a sunday night, we were the only ones there, and there was no liftie to load you on the chair, it was self service. needless to say no one yeld at us when we took a run down the tube park with our skis.

he said tube park...sweet:flag:

Silver Hills, Chelsea (Augusta) ME
Enchanted, Jackman ME

 

[Mapnut]

At last another Enchanted skier! What can you tell us about these areas, Phil? I only skied Enchanted once. I never skied Silver Hills; my brother did, but said he doesn't remember much about it. Do you know exactly where it was?

Mapnut
I skied Enchanted once with my High School Ski Club. It was a long drive by bus.
I can remember that some people that day found incredibly deep powder.
I can remember that they were so far from anywhere that they had a deal where you could stay overnight in the lodge by bringing your own sleeping bag. I never tried it, but someone who did said that at about 10PM they turned off the generators. I do remember that staffing was so tight that the lifts closed for lunch for the lifties.

Silver Hills
It was on a hillside overlooking the Kennebec River in Chelsea ME, just south of Augusta on the Eastern side of the River. They had 2 main slopes that faced the river with a twin ropetow. These slopes and tows went a long way down towards the river. There was a 3rd shorter beginner rope tow and slope that went off the North side of the hill.

If you are the same Mapnut that I think I have encountered on other forums who is so good with maps and terra server material here is some additional info.

Silver Hills was located on the same hill as the broadcast tower for a local radio station, I think either WRDO or WFAU (1960's) AM. Looking at a map the slope was on the opposite side of the river from the state capital about at the level of the Augusta/Hallowell city line. I can remember that the place to see the slope was as you drove north on US 201? from Gardiner just after you passed the big warehouse for the State Liquor Store system.

What's the deal about Crotched? I skied there as a little kid and have no real memory of the place. Is that now defunct and the new Crotched on a different part of the hill?

None on the NELSAP...but a few of them in Quebec.

A few top of mind and clear memories (with exception of Gray Rocks and Glen, I've skied all these last over 35 years ago):

Beaver Lake, Mont Royal Park, Montreal (I wrote a TR on the place - search Beaver Lake circa 1968 on google).
Mont Laval, Laval
Sun Valley, Val-David
Gray Rocks, St-Jovite
Glen Mtn, Knowlton
Mt. Echo, West Brome?

Prospect Hill, MA
Newton Commonwealth GC, MA
Greylock Glen, MA

Mittersill, NH

I might have misunderstood the question, I thought maybe it meant that skied NELSAP when there were still in operation?

 

[steamboat1]

Thanks snowmonster, I forgot about Mittersill although I don't think it's NELSAP anymore since Cannon put a lift on it. If that's the case I could add Corinthia in VT. even though it's part of Mt. Snow now. I'm not sure if I can count Balsams Wilderness just yet.

MadPatSki I could add Grey Rocks to my list also. That was a great place back in the day.

I forgot that one. I've skied there one day a few years back.

Mittersill, but it wasn't in operation then, so I didn't count it.

In 2002 I skied Fortress in Alberta in one of their last seasons. Independent ski areas that have disappear due to a merger? Mont Faustin in the late 1970s (became part of Mont Blanc).
