I think he meant the lift, not the mountain. (Also, in case anyone's looking for directions here, it's exit 23 off of the Northway (which is exit 24 off of the Thruway) if you are coming from way south.. Exit 25 off the Northway if you get on at Exit 24 or 26+.)

Build it and they will come...:smash::smash:

If you guyz keep posting directions there will be lines.. Like TLC sings in Creep: "just keep it on the downlow..."

Or tell it on the mtn. that is Gore message board no one looks at that anyway

Over the past 4 season I've bean at one of Mt. Snow, Sugarbush, Stratton x 2, Okemo, Killington, Whiteface x 2, and Okemo and Bromley over New Years this year too. I've barely waited more than 5-6 minutes in any singles line during that times. Maybe once or twice at Okemo, but that is it.

The worst lift lines i've seen in many many years were at Stowe on 2/7/09.

Was at Stowe President days weekend. Lines were the worst I can recall from anywhere since the 1980s (pre-high speed lift era).

Well, the single at MRG gets bad on weekend, but I think that's an exception becuase its a single.

Even the Big Spruce Quad?

Back when it was the Big Pig, it never had a line. On busy weekends, I'd duck over there from 10-2

Maybe due to one of the worst snow reports out there. They report for the last 7 days only. Unless you look the day before you wouldn't be able to tell how much snow they got in a 24hr period

Burnt Ride is a ghost town. I was up there Presidents Weekend on monday, and when I got over there there was not a person in sight.....maybe 50 chairs up before there was another person and 15 chairs behind me until I saw a single person load on.

Im starting to think burnt ridge was a multimillion dollar blunder. Gore REALLY needs to work to tie these pods together better, alot more connector trails are needed
