............is the worst one I have seen in a while.

Heck Saddleback, little old Saddleback has a very nice site.......actually really a really nice site. Who on gods green earth thought that was a great website?

Take a look at Sugarloaf, Saddleback, Stowe, etc, etc, etc! I am no website guru, but they sure seem to be of much better quality......Kmarts website is about two steps away from giving some kid with epilepsy a seizure.

Even Jay's is a pain, but Kmarts is even worse.

Actually, the Killington, Jay, Stowe, Sugarloaf and the Saddleback Web sites are pretty similar with the horizontal, drop-down nav at the top...

:lol:

Yes, which still doesn't negate the fact that K's site looks like crap. It's too white, it's go the stupid BEAST thing in green going on, it's the look not the bells and whistles per se.

There is no way you can think there website is on par with Stowe, Loaf, SB, etc. It's aweful. If you didn't know any better you would think you were going skiing at a place called the BEAST.

It's horrible, period!

Now go back to moderating! :razz:

It's more about wasting all that real estate with a stupid flash marketing piece that doesn't make much sense.

Why are we so surprised that some of the Maine area websites would be good? Meanies!

Smuggs has the worst website imaginable. The only thing slower than their lifts is their website.

What ever the problem is, it must have been temporary and not the fault of the Smuggs server. It actually runs quicker than AZ from my end.

Killington's site hardly lives up to their BEAST marketing. Looks like they are trying to be Stowe but still be Killington and they are failing at both.

Bousqet's ($20 midweek, haven't posted this year's weekend rates yet)
is one of the best values in small mountain skiing anywhere in New England. Who cares if their website looks dated? They do a great job for what they are, and survive because of that.

Really? I had no clue about their skiing value, thank you so very much for bringing that to my attention. I only was a member of the race crew from 1992 until 1996 and helped build it into what it is today... I am the last person to lecture about Bousquet.

That said, we're talking about websites, not skiing value. That's why I mentioned it.
