Can't see this happening anytime soon. I thought this past season there was discussion on the forum about this and if I recall Smuggs had no immediate plans to upgrade.
I thought we discussed an Act 250 application at least three years ago that showed them installing a Six-Pack on Sterling? I guess that is not happening anytime soon.

They re-painted all the lifts last summer including Sterling (chairs & towers). Judging by what it cost Magic to re-paint the red chair several years ago I'd imagine it wasn't cheap to do. Why would they spend that kind of money if they had intentions of replacing the lift soon?

Back on topic. With all the development going on at Stowe both on & off the mountain I'd love to hear their future plans.
Yeah...more indications that they scrapped the plan.
Stowe would be a good one. Historically we had a hard time getting anyone from there to respond.

What I came to post. I'd love to hear him answer some Killington and non-Killington questions. With his recent "public relations" push to be more visible and plea his case, he might be available.

Stowe is too high on their horses to spend time here!
In no particular order:
Sugarloaf
Big Squaw - it would be interesting to hear from this grass roots community movement. They could also use some love.
Camden Snow Bowl - New to them lift, snow making, new lodge.

+1 on Big Squaw. I think everyone is wondering what their long term plans are
I'd hope that they would be able to open the summit.
Cool guys 
thanks. Will continue to add to the list. Emails going out this week. It's slow but I'm making forward progress, hopefully by next week we can have a few challenges up & running.

I'd like to know if that lift is FUBAR'ed or can be fixed.

It would be sad if that were the case considering how old it is.
Likely FUBAR'd. Heard a few years ago that during the last attempt to get it back in service (working on sheave trains and such) they discovered major deterioration in the footings to the towers and they halted further efforts. It would be a great question for the community group. I learned to ski there and would love to ski the upper mountain again.

I'm more interested in smaller places, because the big guys you can typically find some info on:
1) Bolton Valley
2) Plattekill
3) Gore
For a larger player, I think Jay Peak is interesting simply because they currently have about 101 moving parts, etc..
