Sunday River 22-23

[bigbob]

Once you move up to a 6 pack things really improve as far as wind resistance due to how heavy the carriers are. I don't think it's the right location for a 6 though.

There still is a lot of engineering that can be done with a quad that would improve the situation though. That lift can hug the ground for the most once it crosses the trail, just like K did with Superstar when they lowered the towers.

Skyline at Sugarloaf is a quad with added weight for additional wind resistance. It is a fixed grip.

They gave those out to Patrollers like candy...
Cleaning out the basement last month we found 4, brand new, still in the plastic wrapper......

Well, they’re worth $80 each since they’re new!

I might wax the top of skis with it. Not the base, there may be more posts after this.

I have at least 3 still from different years. It was also part of the swag you got when you signed up for Bust-n-Burn. I have that exact one..

Many have fish. Bust and Burn was an excuse to go full Festivus in Maine. Good skiers. No tickets to ski. The police had road blocks around Sunday River rd. Much better event crowd than Killington. McDonalds in Rumford very nice.

Sunday River shares their space with the local schools when a fire alarm malfunction makes the buildings unusable.

Well that's quite an amazing story.

Would a vail resort have done that?

This is just one reason why Sunday River is my home mountain. Class act SR!

Very happy to see them jump in to assist. May lead to a pipeline of future mountain employees too as it sounds like this may have started an yearly on mountain program with Telstar. Win for the industry too to expose middle/high schoolers to the job options resorts offer.

Maybe in Vail, CO.

Guessing the fact they tested on Jordan indicates a Jordan opening again this year.

That was always the plan. This has been disscussed all summer on here and on the Sunday River page.

Yup, and recently saw fall line construction posted some pics on FB that they pulled new pipes for Cyclone up it and to the connection with Lights Out and Aludra extension. Had heard that line may have had some issues last season and thus it opened much later. Guessing this will fix any issues there. And with the new feed fully broken in (so hopefully no issues at the start of snowmaking in earnest this year), they should have a lot more open opening day and into TGW if we have similar weather. More favorable, well that will be interesting to see what we get. Less favorable, lets hope not.
