Word!

Like I've probably said earlier in this thread (I think my first post on this forum was on this thread) I'll probably go there in the summer a couple of times if I'm really jonesin'. I would do the same run 30 times at Campgaw when I lived 10 minutes away from it and it was only 600' long, so I think it would be a good way to spend a hot summer day, we'll see. I know I'll never go there when there is still snow on the mountains outside, that would be silly.

As is said in the past I believe the project has been pushed back until next July. The company I work for is on site installing all the Fire/Life Safety equipment. The ground breaking was almost a year late yet the original completion date of 11/28/08 never changed. With the soft economy I guess the developers felt it was better to push the opening back 8 months rather than pay for massive amounts of OT. Hopefully the link works for this article from this past May.

Phillycore's post inspired bump

Who would hit Xanadu right now? I definitely would. Depending on how much I enjoyed the experience, I'd honestly consider an overnight down there once a summer. Just a little fix to keep the addiction in check until November

 

[Phillycore]

I'd hit it like a teenager on a viagra pill.

stop and think about that statment for a sec. you just said you would go south to ski. did you ever think you would say that.

what i really know is ow much my season pass is going to cost.

 

[RootDKJ]

I'm also very interested in the season pass costs? In fact, what will they define as a "season"?

Also need to know their hours of operations.

I'd love to see some of their engineering data...tons of cooling power, KW or Amps used, backup systems

It is a bizarre concept, but what's even more bizarre is going south to ski in August :blink:


You know though, I can completely see a rowdy August AZ gathering at Xanadu some August down the road. As this 'community' continues to grow and more and more members get to know each other I can vision a helluva a mid-summer 'ski' party. :beer:

[deadheadskier]

As they say, Only in New York :lol:

The Atlanta ski dome will have a bump run.
Its been over a year since I heard anything else about the dome in Atlanta and I dont know where they are today with that thing, but as of last August, as per an Atlanta newspaper :
"one developer wants to build the world's largest indoor ski resort on Georgia 400 in Dawson County, along Lake Lanier.
Mount Pegasus is an estimated $1 billion ski dome.
"It'll be a million square foot indoor ski dome with five runs. For the snowboarders, we'll have two quarter-pipes, a half-pipe, and a super pipe; a mogul field. We'll have the world's only indoor snowmobile track -- we'll have a one mile Formula One snowmobile track,"

I have also heard the dome planned for Riverhead LI will have a bump run.

I'd be down...combining a visit to the Big Apple and some indoor turns would be mad steezy yo...I'd put the fastest wax on my skis and ski right into the wall...lol
