I have not seen any "Bode board"riverc.
It used to be right at guest services and was visible walking into the main doors of the then Peabody Lodge, what is it Lakeview now or Notchview or something lame? Any ways, that was two or three years ago and it might be down now. I used to read the articles that were posted up there. It wasn't specifically called a "Bode Board" but just had articles tacked up.

I had noticed that until recently - maybe I'm wrong - it took 4 or 5 clicks to get to the ski report - bad design!

it has now changed or I'm just alot more attentive. the marketing jingle doesn't work for me either.

cannon has a similar problem in perception as wildcat does - an old school, expert's mountain but in reality there's lots of novice and intermediate terrain.
Thankfully they put the direct link from the main page, but it took me friggin forever to find the conditions page last week. Ugh!

That "Bode board" was most certainly still there at the end of last season. I haven't been to Cannon yet this season, but I'd be amazed if they ever take that thing down. I enjoyed reading the various articles they'd put up there.

I talked Saturday with Nat in marketing who works on the website and mentioned this.He said they will be addressing that and there should be a link on the main page soon.

I'll look for it this weekend.Your talking about the "old"Peabody lodge which is now called the Notchview.I rarely go in there cuz I boot up and have a few frostys in the "new" Peabody lodge.
By the way.it looks like 18" new as of this morning!

Notchview, that is what the renamed it, thanks. I avoid the pub because it is usually pretty crowded in there but I can usually find room easily enough in the "Notchview". Never stuck around for drinks because I am usually solo there and hanging out solo at a bar isn't my thing. Nice pub area though from when I have hung out.

I liked it when the pub was in the basement. There were a lot more seats, and virtually no kids running around.
