The NEW Magic Mountain

[JamaicaMan]

Saturday will be busy no doubt. Hopefully keep lines to 15-20 minutes max. Red and black. We will control Day ticket sales at 1000 to help keep it manageable

Very busy this morning. I was there for opening bell at 8:45 and only got in 3 runs before I had to leave at 11:00. Granted, I was going slowly 'cause I kind of suck at steeps, moguls, and trees and I'm trying to improve, but there's no denying the lies were long AF. Black got going a bit after 10:00, but they have to load it as if it were a single...2 people on every other chair. Nonetheless, I had a fantastic morning! I had just been up at Bolton Valley where I felt like king of the mountain with my mad skillz....I dropped into Goniff for my first run this morning and had a quick reminder of what steep really is and how far I have to go in terms of room for improvement in my skiing. It was great to see the crowd there, and I'm sure that the mgmt will get Black's issues sorted out over the summer. Both shots below are Goniff...It was just stunning in the morning sunlight today.

Yikes.

That was the problem with Magic that I experienced last weekend as well. Really the only blemish I could truly find at the place. That said, I imagine Sunday through Friday it's likely the easy choice in Southern Vermont.

It was great skiing there yesterday, easily my best day of the year. Wish Black chair was squared away.

Skied to last chair - 5 PM. Run of the day for me was Green line to disappearing act.

Hopefully over off season they can get the black up to snuff.. if they can get that loading as at least a consistent double chair then they will be in great shape for next year

I'm still optimistic that Black and Green will both be up next year. No inside knowledge, just optimism.

maybe they should buy a new chair and paint it black? (i know, easy to spend money that's not mine )

 

[IceEidolon]

I expect better value could be gotten by replacing the drive terminal or even just the main motor, letting Black load as a triple again.

The extra money from higher ticket sales on Limit Days probably isn't enough to justify full replacement.

JM- With the last couple of weekends at capacity, you guys must be back above your season projections, right?

This weather has been a lifesaver for the VT ski industry. And things still look good for next weekend as well (a little early, I know).

A few from today.

Good lord, this is even worse than last week.

Last Saturday the worst it got was about equal to start of the Green lift.
