Guess the ski area

[Treeliner]

treeliner- Okemo? It looks like the Northstar Express and Green Ridge Triple at the summit.

Nope.

Did you get my guess (Stratton?)

Not Stratton.

K-Mart?

Negative...But you guys are the right track. Remember: the AT goes to the peak of this ski resort.

OK, well, let's see...Mt Snow?

Not Mt. Snow

 

[Zand]

Bromley?

 

[Treeliner]

Bromley?

Bingo :wink:

It was a really nice hike, with some great views of Stratton. Given it's exposure, it had a relatively large amount of snow on it compared to Bromley. Here's a pic of it:

Excuse my off-topicness

Guess where this is taken from:

Killington? That looks like it could be Ascutney in the distance. Wild guess, really...

Nope not Killington.

Guess where this is taken from:

If this hasn't been guessed, I'd say it is one of the entrances to Lower FIS at Sugarbush...

Nope not Sugarbush either.

Yes, my picture is of the Roaring Brook trail at Belleayre, at last it is solved

Yeah, that fence is a Belleayre giveaway. I would have gotten this one, dammit.

Here's another one. Did a section of the Appalachian Trail that crossed the top of a ski resort less than a month ago, this is a shot from it.

although I've never been there. Is it Pico?

Everyone - please use THIS ALBUM for pics. It will automatically size them down to 640 pixels so we won't have to scroll.

AWF asked back on page 2 of this post what HKD stood for, it stands for the maker of the snowgun, Herman K Dupre, who is one of the owners/operators of Seven Springs Resort, in Western PA. They have been making these guns since the 70's I would guess, and they worked so well they are now sold worldwide. They are constantly improving on these guns, and have a test area for new protypes. From a friend who makes snow, he says this type of gun (mounted on a pole) work better than the fans, cannons, tripods, etc...He actually says there is another brand that looks similar to the HKD (mounted on a pole) that works even better.

thanks for the info! ya those one on the poles seem to be very good... i have heard that jimminy peak has a new type of snowgun that makes way more realistic snow and a lot more faster... never been to jiminy peak can anyone confirm this?

I've never heard this and I do ski at Jiminy quite a bit. A great AZ challenge question. I will say Jiminy puts out more snow than any other ski area in the Berkshires that I've skied.

 

[eatskisleep]

Anyone want to guess mine again?

Hint it is not in NY.

 

[ozskier]

Where is this?

Saddleback. Royal Coachman, under the Rangeley double.
