Sugarloaf Cat Skiing

Post by boston_e »

Sugarloaf to offer Snowcat Skiing: http://www.sugarloaf.com/the-mountain/b ... iing-x2827" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I wonder if something like this could work at Killington... perhaps towards the old northeast passage chair, or on terrain between Killington and Pico (as much as I dislike the idea of an interconnect, this might be an interesting concept).

Sugarbush does this:

I love the idea of it on the backside of Pico or if they did it for the Julio/Anarchy Ridge on POW days or something.

They could make something work. They own 2 cats with cabbins. The motor room shuttle and chef Eric's bully. I always thought Killington should do something like this. I'd even pay for spring/summer days on S.S. when the lift is closed midweek. They have the terrain and opportunity. Cat skiing at Killington has a nice ring to it. The genius king of spring could sell it on YouTube.

Cat skiing once the lift goes to midweek would put too much stress on the soft snowpack. Just get Mike's approval for Ronzoni to drive the 802 bus up the work road.

The quads on the work road would be another possibility. Only 3 passengers with a driver but a fun concept.

I'm hearing about a South Ridge Cat Skiing adventure.

Takes 3 people up plus one cat the same route as the beloved South Ridge chair.
