Your answer to #8, "Which of Gore Mountain’s four peaks is most recently developed" is incorrect. Little Gore was orignially developed in the 1930s and then had a lift going to the summit in the 1960s. The correct answer is Burnt Ridge (which I submitted).

We had about 50/50 answers on this one, actually. The answers we have came direct from Gore. I will check w/ them

i would like to lodge a formal protest regarding :
3. What Gore trail is named after a famous logger?

while Pete Gay may be a correct answer I also believe Woodchuck should have been accepted. Who's ever heard of Pete Gay? But who here doesn't know the limerick "How much wood could a Woodchuck chuck if a Woodchuck could chuck wood?"

I will take an AZ Hoodie (black, XL) as compensation for the mix up. Thanks.

That one took me a while to figure out. I had to review old trail maps, and although I didnt win, I found the answer to be Little Gore Mountain.

Gore Mountain's answer regarding Gore Mountain history, is (not shockingly) correct.

Please advise how you want to handle this. thankks

Was this part of the post in jest?

If so, your kind of sarcasm is similar to mine and I'd probably get along well with you.

If not, you're an utter douchebag.

 

[Bene288]

The NC Ski Bowl has the newest chair, which is on the Little Gore peak..so the original answer was right.

Just got my ticket and abundance of AZ stickers, thanks, Nick!

Question #10 and #11 entries updated!

Weird.

For some reason your answers/winners didnt post to your OP, but instead to the "reply with quote" response. I wonder if the spreadsheet entry defaults to last occurrence?
