are a few of those pictures from Barron's? I thought just the big giant training hill was what was getting cleared. There looks to be other trail projects as well.

That whole place is going to be widened and have snowmaking in a couple of years. Call it Cannon's South Peak.

For those of us Cannon newbs (maybe just me?) can you explain what they are doing? I haven't been to Cannon, but after driving by it on my trip to Jay Peak a couple months ago, I will certainly attempt to go next season at some point.

And I just noticed that Cannon is not part of the CSC list, which is a bummer... hmmmmmmm

Some are of the connecting trial from the top of the t-bar to Barons.

This is like a broken record.

There is no shame in cutting trails back to what they once were. This isn't some new scar on the landscape.

Unless you're talking to Threecy, then its like Chernobyl.

oh joy

Adironrider being contrarian, just to be contrarian..........just like a broken record.


Some people liked it the way it was. Hell, now I wish the lift never went in and Mittersill was left "lost."

And given those trails haven't looked like that in your lifetime, in that regard it is a "new scar"

And DHS trying to swing his dick around. Some surprise.

The way it was was a fully established resort and they are returning the trails to that level. What it was is what you are getting. You can move the goalposts all you want, but since you know me so well you know I don't care.

You can actually go earn BC turns all over the Northeast, but the only people bitching about cutting at Mitt are to lazy to go do so. Get over it.

so Jackson hardcore......rock on tough guy


People are free to express an opinion on how they preferred terrain. If you want to come in here, call folks out and act like a dick per usual; well I guess you're free to do that too.

get over yourself Adironrider. Your about ten years late in getting over this teenage level internet tough guy persona of yours.

Dude, I feel bad for your newborn growing up with a total asshole as a Dad. You should focus on having a good time with him, rather than getting your panties in a wad over the internet. If you knew me as well as you say you do, you'd realize I don't give a shit about your opinion.

Pot meet kettle tough guy. Enjoy your day!

A ski off is in order?! Having skied with (read: trying to keep up with) DHS gets my early bet.

Re: Mittersill....as long as the snow is good there is plenty of terrain among both Cannon and Mittersill to keep everyone fat and happy

I'm challenging Puck It down the Tramline. Let's all do it. Love how the day K closes for the season ski-off discussion really gets going.
