Not speaking about off map stuff
Anyone else think that the on map glades at SR have been seriously neglected over the last few years? Now that the big lift installations look to slow down will more resources be dedicated to cleaning some spots up?

Yes and I hope so! Tango and Blind immediately come to mind as needing a good trimming. They are “wide” glades so likely a big endeavor…. Any others that seem in rough shape growth wise?

I feel like he question is which ones don’t Well, seems pretty obvious that Poppy Fields got a lot of clean up love this summer. There was a ton of deadfall from last year's wind storms by season's end and all lines seem completely clear of all that this year. Not to mention that Green, Orange and Blue lines all have new color bands on the trees this year. My favorite line in upper Chutzpah could definitely use some cleanup and Blind Ambition needs a good trim too. Those briars are taller than a lot of kids trying to ski through. I don't envy them being at face level with that stuff!! |

Yes I would help clear strails this summet. Blind needs brush hog. I have a weed Wacker with a blade that goes thru lots of stuff. I don't do it as much these days but used to carry a folding saw in my jacket boarding some days that weren't the greatest conditions and a bit board with trsils. Go in and work on clearing debris.

Is their defense they have been pretty busy the past couple summers putting in new lifts.
Or perhaps Boyne is putting more focus on parks than glades?

No way would Boyne allow us to use power tools, let alone chainsaws unfortunately.
