Right where I want to be
Trail counts increase and snowmaking trail counts decrease and has not occurred on quite a few in the last 5+- years or since electricity costs have gone up,pipes broken or just real bad snow years requiring a lot of resurfacing of main routes.

Moose Alley last 5 + years only recall snow made first few years Tucker brook quad went in
Banshee, Banshee cut through ride around etc. Jaspers ? just this year with no tram, lot of area at bottom of Banshee / Avalanche Tram cutback over to the tram base
Paulies several years now
Skylight
Bypass most years always turns into a ice sheet anyway no matter how much snow is made on it
Short Fuse
Lower hardscrable
Turnpike Upper and Lower
Blue Ball
Wonder how many acres this is ?
Got to be real this has been a great year,they have all skied great,but one melt down and most could be gone very quickly.
But to be fair Lower Flietman has been added more recently.
Wait a minute did you used to have a different profile name? threecy?

I’m surprised that out of all trails Mittersill lift line is still marked as one it feels like out of all trails split that ones has the most distinct upper and lower half, especially since I have seen one half open but not the other more times than I have with other split trails such as Turnpike or Red ball, both of which are split on the mountains trail report.

I do believe Stowe holds the record for overnight trail count inflation in the East anyway.
I admired they stuck on 48 (IIRC) for as long as they did since most of the NE big resorts had already upped theirs, but yes, I agree, when Stowe did it it was the most jarring to me also. It literally was overnight without anything new for expansion.

What a day yesterday! Cannon shines under these conditions. Two funny things from the day, I finally successfully returned to the Zoomer lift from Kinesman without walking/pushing/skating (don’t want to “out the person” who gave me the detailed directions, but thanks for the info), but more surprising was someone is trying to rename Obvious…there were handmade signs along the access route that said “Devils Ballsack” but I have a feeling they won’t be successful in changing the name to that (and worse, unlike a lot of homemade signs that I’ve seen in woods that no-one tampers with, I have a feeling some regular will pull these out of the trees).

Appreciate your eyes. Yes, it's intentional.
