Guess the ski area

Why do you think that?

i could be wrong, but that looks a lot like zoomer, and you can see a chair in the upper right corner of that picture. the whole thing looks identical to me and i have spent quite a bit of time @ cannon over the years. even the way the snow melts on that trail is how it would go on zoomer

Why do you think that?

You can just see the lift in the upper right. Width of the trail, pitch, the remaining moguls on the left, and the placement of the lift all match zoomer.

So, I have to third that opinion. :-D

Edit: Ok, so I didn't read ahead before making my post. Diagnosis still stands.

You're right.

Wow! I remember riding a lift with a bunch of sheaves like that. I can't remember where it was though. I want to say Haystack. Or maybe Killington or Snow. The one I'm thinking of was much steeper though.

No, no, and no! But that lift gets MUCH steeper.

Hmmm... I wanna say Spillsville Sugarbush South. But I'm not sure. I don't ski over there much, you know. I stick to the northern part. :wink:

Does anyone else remember the summit triple at Haystack? Didn't it have a long row of sheaves like that right before it made its way up the last steep pitch? Thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud

Nope. My observation is that those that prefer Mount Ellen really prefer Mount Ellen. Anyway, it's not Sugarbush.

Ya think? :wink: 90/112 days is my devotion to Mount Ellen.

Probably a compression tower, especially if it was loud and rough (hence the thud-thud-thud-thud.....). Was the haul rope UNDER those sheaves?

I think so, but again, this was probably a dozen years ago and I'm not even 100% it was Haystack so who the hell knows...

Looks like the first two towers to the K1 gondola at Killington?

Nope, not Killington. But that is the correct state.
