THREAD BUMP! Been 20 years since we cut the woods back around our place and they're creeping back in. Time to get on the schedule for the summer work. Anyone know if Gary's still in business and these phone numbers are still accurate? Also open to anyone else's recommendations for tree folks. Thank...

It would be a pretty big deal for K to go with Dopp. It's been nearly an all Poma operation for a very long time.

Yes, this is a must. Something like the Cabriolet at Canyons. It's not cheap to run a shuttle bus system. That lift would pay for itself in short order. Otherwise the parking lots will be a cluster.

IMG_6406.jpeg^^ they were mild. scored third chair, braced for the mass influx...that never came. it was mostly ski-on all day. their page for the event recommended car pooling and prohibited overnite parking. i'm guessing they may have sold less tix than a normal day? i noticed friday that there w...

i watched fom peak of stark's mtn. saw a crowd of 15 or so killington folk during the event. beautiful warm day, skiing was pretty damn good too, if interesting on bottom half. no real traffic heading north. 22A wss the most crowded i've ever seen around 10pm...thruway was packed crawling above alb...

What makes you say this? It would surprise me if Alterra made another big acquisition after just purchasing A-Basin and all the capital improvements they are doing. I also think it would be weird for Powdr to sell K before completing the village, which has just started and could enhance the value o...

Same here but two for Pico. DM me with an offer!

I've always wanted to see this. Place would be absolutely enormous now if they had done that project.

It will be a full buyout of all ski areas under Powdr. Except for Woodward that will stay. Alterra will buy them out, Powder will keep the stand alone Woodward locations as well as the summer ones and their other companies not associated with skiing. With in a year this will happen. Alterra has mor...

:roll: 1. The Superstar chair has been discussed as our next replacement but it is not happening this spring – therefore – has no impact on snowmaking. If superstar is the next chair to be replaced and it is not this year, does that mean there are no new chairs this year? Or, is superstar replacemen...

killington's one of powdr's cash cows. would doubt they'd sell it especially w the long awaited village apparently becoming a reality unless they have some debt payments due and desperately need the money. Been saying this for a long time. I know it's a capital-intensive business, but with the traf...

But people are going to pay 1,000,000 plus for those new townhomes and condos in the fancy village!

It also speaks volumes to the aftermarket support (ie parts inventory or lack thereof) of Poma vs Dopp. That lift is not old enough to have to be scouring boneyards for parts. Poma is not in the same tier at Dopp anymore, and considering they have an office down the road it's even more disparaging....

Sounds like its going to need an overhaul this summer.
