Woodbury Ski Area set to open today!

skidmarks · Oct 13, 2012

Looks like Woodbury in CT will open today!! Congrats!!!
That being said, Suburban had just about that much snow in our parking lot last week for our rail jam with Ski Sundown...

Rod Taylor, president of Woodbury Ski Area, is pleased to announce that Woodbury Ski Area will be open Saturday 10/13/2012 (Weather Permitting). Woodbury Ski Area has always been one of the first ski areas to open for the season, and this year we will be opening earlier than ever, with our tentative opening for this Saturday. Woodbury Ski Area is known as the premier tubing park all across New England, and this Saturday, for the first time ever, Woodbury Ski Area will have all its activities open at the same time. We will have skiing, snowboarding, summer/winter tubing, zorbing and zip lining!!

Nobody skiing it...

That's pretty funny.

So Wild Mountain opened a little patch of snow with no lift access and it was crowded and they got national media attention.

Woodbury opens a similar patch with no lift access a week later and it's crickets?

That's kinda sad. Get out there and ski that little patch of snow, guys!

Wow has anyone else been to their web site? Total disaster... check out their Trails Map page for Lulz

The is the difference between being first and tied for second. The Woodbury patch looks smaller than the Wild Mountain patch. And crazy Woodbury doing this isn't novel any more, no one has heard of Wild Mountain. I think Woodbury also got overshadowed in the east by Killington running a chair for some "real skiing" (oh SNAP, I said it!)

I wouldn't. That patch is meant for setting up some park elements and jibbing. I wouldn't bother with that patch if I lived right next door.

If I lived right next door maybe, I'm about 30-40 minute away though and you won't find me there. I haven't checked this year, but in the past they charged a pretty penny for the privilege to ski that patch...

Sill, kudos to Rod for getting open!
