Narrow snow making trails

[Newpylong]

true that....

 

[deadheadskier]

east coast trails are generally narrow and east coast trails generally have snowmaking on them..what about Jolly Green Giant at Okemo..that is about the same width as Anapurna at Huntah,..

I so wish they left the Poma on Jolly Green. That thing was FUN

my first time at Okemo was in 1995 so I never skied it with the Poma but I have always been a fan of Poma lifts..they are faster than fixed grip lifts and you spend more time on your skis..

Southpaw at Sunday River is pretty narrow for a snowmaking trail.

+1 for Southpaw.

Upper Cannon.Narrow and winding.

Brookway at Loon is in places about as narrow as a groomer is wide. The snow whales built up during early season snowmaking can block the trail completely.

Tightrope at Attitash.

Like 2/3s of the trails at Camelback are narrow and they all have snowmaking on them..Blue mountain is mainly wide trails but The Chute and sections of Burma road are narrow and have snowmaking..

Burma rd is a green trail. You ski it once to wipe the sleet out of your eyes as you wake up from your 6AM drive and head to the 6-pack or quad. and the chute is 200ft :beer:

its all good... peace

Chute at Mohawk or Tester at Mt Soutington

Powerline and Bearly at K. Bearly is actually extremely narrow considering it's a beginner trail.

Maybe Gun Hill Road at Hunter.

anything at Dartmouth Skiway

Nashoba Trail at Nashoba Valley...talk about narrow.

Powerline doesn't have snowmaking on it. I don't get to Bearly enough to know whether it does or not but I think not.

I wouldn't call the novice trail on Winslow or the race trails narrow, but the others definitely qualify.

Would be nice to get back there when the conditions are better...

I could swear i've been on it when it had snowmaking whales. are you sure they dont drag hoses and guns down powerline at times?

+ 1. FWIW when I skied Powerline in November and December 2006 when ASC ran it they blew snow on it. Does the trail have its own hydrants? No, but they did pull some guns into there and blew some snow.

Nashoba Trail at Nashoba Valley...talk about narrow.

Is that the trail that is on far skier's left? If so, Chilemass, Bob R, and I skied it back in 2004 or 2005 and it was interesting...narrow and had some "mood lighting" on it.

Yes. It certainly adds some variety to an otherwise somewhat bland skiing experience.

as trailboss points out, in the past they've pulled the hoses over from rime to lay a base down on powerline. on the trail map it does have a snowflake indicating snowmaking. and surprisingly they've run a groomer over it on occasion. bearly does have snowmaking but wouldn't be on anyone's list of narrow snowmaking trails of note. while we're on it, though very rare i've actually seen roundabout groomed.
