A Real Skier's Mountain

by syrup217 , Jul 17 '04
Pros: Crowds small, variety of terrain, great layout
Cons: No nightlife, not the greatest terrain park

Like Skiing through the trees? Come here then...

by NyMeg144 , Mar 09 '00
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...

GORE=VALUE

by zaries46 , Jan 25 '00
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?

Pros: New Lifts
Cons: Not like the West
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.

Decent resort if its close

by morgothtdo , Jan 25 '00
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....

Great all-around mountain...

by hamsinn , Jul 17 '00
Pros: new gondola, new summit area, no crowds, killer glades
Cons: can't get to highest summit area on one lift
UPDATE: Gore's new Gondola the "Northwoods Express" kicks! It takes you from the base to the new summit area in about 5 minutes and is very cosy and warm. The three new trails that lead away from the top of the new gondola are all challenging...
