[SIKSKIER]

I guess I have too now that I think of it. You would think that at these temps the snow would not need to drain. Blow it and groomed out out the next day.

 

[MadMadWorld]

Biased much?

Actually no. I'm not much of a Stowe fan and consider Smuggs as my favorite mountain.

Some Stowe-ites throw in Lookout to make up their own Front Five. Of course, the same Stowe-ites would also throw out Liftline and include Lookout in the Front Four.

IIRC, Cannon has embraced the Front Five concept and started selling a shirt for this. Ironically, I saw that shirt on a beach in Cape Cod.

I would take all 5 of Stowes over the Front 5 at Cannon. Yes, Cannon's Front Five are very recognizable but using the same marketing gimmick is bush league. Cannon has a lot of great features they could market (historical stuff, Mittersill, some of the best tree skiing, etc.) I think they need to figure out there identity, who their client base is, and how to maintain loyal customers and attract new ones.

You need to get over yourself. This is not an issue outside of your mind.

Completely different clientel, different markets, etc, and if you really want to argue, it makes more sense at Cannon opposed to Stowe given that there are actually 5 distinct trails at Cannon, where at Stowe there are like 20 and your just picking 4 of the difficult ones.

How about the "Fronc Five". It has a ring to it. Just like Wile E. Coyote "Supergenius"

Oh right I forgot that you are the voice of reason. My argument was not of who is more deserving of this stupid title. It was about copying another mtns marketing campaign.

Again, thats in your head. Literally noone else has beef with this other than you.

For at least my lifetime, theyve both had the same monikers. Were talking decades here. If your going to get all riled up over a chicken and egg type scenario, well thats on you.

...and no one has said who was first.

I don't like that they call the trams "ketchup" and "mustard". It's like they are trying to say that those cars are equivalent to the Heinz and French's condiments for French fries and hotdogs.

Right. I only looked at page one, for some strange reason I forgot to look at the next pages until after I posted. I now realize the mountain is Cannon. No, I have not skied there (yet!)

I just don't like when a company plagerizes another companies marketing schtick.
