Let me preface this review by telling you that Gore is a real skier's mountain--built for skiers by skiers. It's a no-frills experience in the heart of the Adirondacks. If your idea of skiing is finishing your day at a slopeside condo, relaxing in a ...
Pros: Great trails. Cons: You need a credit card for coladeral for skiis, and the mountain is sometimes crowded.
Gore is a great mountain for freestyle skiing, and so much more. The trails are great, because most of the snow is not man-made, and when it is man-made, the snow is made soft, and not icy. Another good thing about Gore is their gondola, their gondola...

Pros: I love Gore, But I hate all of the Snow boarders on it! Cons: Snowboarders stink, and should have there own little mountain, all they do is ice up the trails!
Hell no! Skiing is ten more times more important then Snowboarding. God I can't stand this anymore. I went skiing today and now im not allowed to go on the stupid half pipe because I am a skier. Why do the call it " Ski Resorts"? It should be...

Pros: Value, Hugeness, no crowds. Cons: Distance away from home, middle of nowhere.
Living in Albany, NY is horrible! Where should I go skiing this weekend? Do I have to deal with the crowds in Southern VT? Should I have to pay $59 for a lift ticket at Stratton?
My experience with Gore, is that it is always empty, the...
I live in the northeast and Im a ski racer. Im lucky that I have a mountain like Gore so close to my house. I used to race for Gore and they were great to us. The snow is always the best it can be due to the varying weather of the northeast. ...
Pros: Good terrain for cruzing Cons: lack of variety
This resort is a fairly large one - 2200 ft vertically is certainly nothing to laugh at. I'm going to go right into what I didn't like about the trip. I'm a hazard skiier - i like to jump, go through trees, and general insanity is what i'm about....
