    Les Otten & Dixville Notch

    I know people like to hate on Les Otten, but he’s done good this time. Bravo Les! https://www.boston.com/news/politics/2020/11/02/les-otten-dixville-notch-new-hampshire-biden Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

    Season Pass Options/Considerations

    Is anyone else considering getting multiple passes, and deciding once things get going, whether to use or not? I’ve got a renewal discount for IKON, but am also considering a renewal discounted Boyne NE pass (from 2018) because I may do a seasonal rental at Sunday River. I figure if I decide not...

    Saddleback Meeting

    What a saddleback like? Compared to sugarloaf? it seems to have a kind of similar layout/trail scheme? Or comparison to a different NE mountain? Can’t wait to get there next season. Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

    SuperPasses 20/21

    Is the NE bronze pass more expensive than it has been in years past? I haven’t bought since 2018, but 549 seems high considering all the other options in the neighborhood. 339 midweek NE-Epic seems like a great deal in comparison.... Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

    The NEW Magic Mountain

    Fun morning today, though it was a bit crispy in the shade. Friendly atmosphere and some great terrain. They definitely need some snow on naturals, but most of the East side was in great shape, considering the weather. This is lower wizard and green line. Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

    SuperPasses 20/21

    Very torn right now: This is the first year in almost 10 that I haven’t bought a Sunday river/New England pass, instead opting for the IKON (I did the MAXpass add on for the two years it was available - a fucking steal). I had planned on just getting a New England pass this spring and going...

    Sugarloaf 2030

    http://www.sugarloaf2030.com Looks like the biggest new terrain build out of all the Boyne-NE Big3. Interesting that they will shorten West Mountain Double, but even more interesting to see what looks like an extended Skyline (on the Proposed West Map), potentially being as close to a...

    Mont Tremblant Recommendations

    Thanks! Are there any funky/legendary places like The Matterhorn/Wobbly Barn that I shouldn’t miss? Also, a good off mountain place to get my skis tuned/waxed cheap? Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

    Mont Tremblant Recommendations

    Thanks! A ski patroller at Bromley mentioned something to me about skiing the North side in the morning and South in afternoon. Is that correct, or the other way around? Other favorite restaurants or quick bites? Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

    Skiing Sunday River 2019-2020

    Insanely busy on 1/2, especially considering vacation period had technically ended. That being said, there were plenty of kids around and I met many people who said they had chosen to come up to SR for the day, or otherwise, because of their storm Pre-NYE. All considered, still a great day and...

    What Expansions are left

    Sunday River supposedly has a lot more room to expand, right? Wasn’t that Les Otten’s doing/undoing? I know that it has been rumored to be the case that they can keep building out from Jordan on west, but I don’t know the specifics. Also, if it ever happened (likely won’t), the Balsams...

    Did Vail intentionally ruin snow reports?

    “Most open terrain in the East” matters to people who can day trip anywhere in the East, those of us who live in Northern-Southern New England (I.e. Massholes). If I see that Killington has it up, I know that Vermont is likely where I should head. If it’s Sunday River/Loaf, I know New Hampshire...

    Sunday River improvements for 2019/2020

    Reposted comments from Trailboss’s thread: Reports out that Big Sky will send a HSQ to replace White Cap Quad. I predict this will be huge for SR. While a replacement for Barker is essential, a HSQ on white cap will essentially negate the biggest downside to white cap, getting out of WC basin...

    Big Sky to Get New Lift; Sunday River to Get "Sort of" New Lift

    Big Sky to Get New Lift; Sunday River to Get "Sort of" New Lift I predict this will be huge for SR! While a replacement for Barker is essential and fast becoming a liability, a HSQ on white cap will essentially negate the biggest downside to white cap, getting out of WC basin in a...
