Make Your Own Season Pass

How about the "NELSAP" Pass, or the ski areas that we'd like to see revived:

i already have a NELSAP pass, and it didn't cost me a red cent:grin:

Killington really is built sideways. You actually can ski all 3K of vert at once: Great Eastern. However, the biggest real area is Needles and that is a little over 1,200'. the biggest gain riding a lift (besides top to bottom on Skyeship) is K1, which is 1,600'. Only one run can be truely skiied top to bottom from K1 directly to KBL- which is Flume. Itherwise, you have the nearly 1,200 foot Canyon, the 1,200 foot Supersta Quad, the 1,100 foot Bear and Snowdon, and the 1,000 foot Rams Head. Nothing comparable to the 2K+ areas up north. It was almost shocking to me pulling into the K1 parking lot and seeing how small K Peak really was. Oh well, it's still a good area with a LOT of skiing.

Obviously :wink:

My emphasis was more in the "reviving" part. Which ones would you like to see come back?

Technically, you have to walk up the metal stairs to Catwalk to get all of the vertical.

Catwalk-High Traverse-Great Eastern. Gotcha!

Sssshhhhhh!!!!! Don't tell folks that. They probably factored in the amount of vert if one climbed to the top of the radio towers and jumped as well. :wink: Catwalk is a cool trail. Narrow.

i am actually quite comfortable with the current state of lost areas. i can't think of any i have strong feelings about seeing revived. i can think of a few i have strong feelings about NOT being revived though.

I would like to Whittier revived or atleast get rid of the wacko who will call the cops if you try to hike it.

the owners are legally entitled to call the cops if you trespass. i would not call someone exercising their rights a whacko. i thought about whittier, but to what end? who is going to stop in ossipee to ski whittier when wildcat, sunday river, attitash, and cranmore are just up the rode? whittier has a horrible layout for folks of lesser abilities and faces a bad direction for retaining snow. my opinion is that most lost areas became lost for rather good reasons. there are a few tragic stories of nelsap of areas that could have been something. but most closed for good reason.
