This happened today based on a related story from a Ski Patrol dude at Copper Mountain, Colorado where we skied on 7" of overnight fresh light powder! (Epic day in the upper bowls, but we digress !). Copper Mtn received 7" fresh overnight. The north face of the upper Copper Bowl was closed...

It's a bad move by Killington to continue have a useless and blathering Snow Report. The resort essentially loses 'clicks' and 'eyevballs' and drive less traffic to their Web site by having an ineffective and uninformative Snow Report. The marketing buzz from the World Cup loses impact with a stupid...

I thought the article was going to give credit to the AI -and AI bots- for excellent Farming of snow! “Killington and PRINOTH effectively used the latest AI technology to measure farm and snow depth, thus replacing three snowmaker humans, and Resort President & GM Michael Solimano with ChatGPT A...

Good article from The Seattle Times about the new GM at Steven’s Pass as she and Vail/Epic try to improve operations at Steven’s.

Deepest sympathies and condolences to Dork and Tyrolean Skiers family and friends. We never met her but surely we skied the same snow and ride the lifts on same days. We will miss Tyrolean Skier’s super detailed daily ski reports! While often chock full of soooo many daily details, her review of sno...

Yeah, we also received that email but the link to the explanation of the merger did not work. Does anyone have details? Did the Torrey family sell? Is the shop now controlled by a Stowe business? So this means two of the long-time ski shops on the Access Road - Peak Performance (RIP, Fred), and Basi...
