Seriously doubt Killington purchases that lift. Wouldn't it complicate their lift ops to have one random Dopplemayer lift at a resort that pretty much only uses Leitner - Poma lifts?Mister Moose wrote:Ramshead Quad: Vertical 1,073 Length 5,499Dickc wrote: Barnstormer: Vertical 1,181 Length 5,450 Towers: 22

Hermitage is the former Haystack mountain. It was a fun place to ski.

Re: Hermitage to be liquidated
It is still Killington controlled land, but who knows what kind of hurdles they would have to jump through to get it re-permitted and how it would interfere with the existing Interconnect permit. Also see here:jimmywilson69 wrote:I think this was discussed somewhere at sometime, but technically the upper Ramshead terrain is not off limits by any permit or the state, right?
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=45397&p=640749&hili ... ct#p640749" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
They could bargain in the permitting process to skip the upper Rams Head side Interconnect lift, though this would greatly interfere with the practicality of the lower Rams Head IC lift and it's additional access road parking, though the middle IC lift with its advanced pitch terrain would be OK.
https://anrweb.vt.gov/PubDocs/ANR/Plann ... 20Plan.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
You could run a lower IC lift from the road up high enough to give access to Caper, that would cover a good chunk of terrain, but it would be an expensive detach lift (or the existing RH lift relocated) and flood Caper with even more people.
You could in theory use one long lift from the road to the ridge line instead of the 2 RH IC lifts and the middle lift, that would provide adequate access to the steeper terrain in the middle, with a run out similar to the Canyon.

So, the RH4 goes back to the top of Ramshead, according to that...

Re: Hermitage to be liquidated
Yep, then one new IC lift top to bottom on the kton side. I like it. You don't have the pod style layout of the ASC era design but get coverage of that whole basin. You could even traverse out to little Pico and ski back to the runout.ME2VTSkier wrote:So, the RH4 goes back to the top of Ramshead, according to that...
