Same names as the movie - Quantum Leap, Risky Business, Downdraft.

Rogue Angel was named after a hair product for men . . . Roagine Gel :wink:

BTW - T2 is actually named for the old T-bar that ran up that trail.

Installed for the 1938 ski season, this New England ski area was the first mountain on the East Coast to have a chairlift. The chairlift was a 3,200' long single chair.

Name the ski area.
