Amazing what you can find when you dig around. I was just scoping out snowmobile trails in the Southern part of VT and came accross this on VAST's site:
BENNINGTON COUNTY TRAIL CLOSURES/ALERTS
Dorset
Snow Valley Ski Area under New Ownership.
The new owner of Snow Valley Ski Area has specific requests. A new trail is being cut up the side of the mountain along the westerly side of the property. This trail will be clearly marked. We MUST stay on this marked trail. The groomer access may be from a trail which will not be open to snowmobiles. If signed for groomer use only, DO NOT USE IT for snowmobiles. The new owner intends to have a private downhill ski area. We MUST stay off the rest of the mountain where he will be skiing.
There will be no trailer access nor access to Corridor 7 from the Snow Valley Road. It is gated at the intersection with Sylvan Ridge Road. Trailer parking and access will be at the 11-30 parking lot and Kendall Farm Road. Anyone riding off the marked trail will be trespassing and subject to a fine. Misuse of the trail on this property will cause our permission to be revoked! Without use of these trails, our north/south trail system (Corridor 7) will be cut off. Please cooperate with this new owner and STRICTLY obey all signing.
Not sure if this is old news or not.
