Though I have not been able to peg an online information source, I have it on good authority that the terrain accessible from the "Ridge Trail" between Haystack and Mt. Snow is approved for "selective thinning" and greater "hike to, and ski down" recreational activities.
I've looked at those treed slopes for years wanting some of that!
From what has been presented, It's part of the Catamount Trail system and recreational access.
Also, The defunct Hog Back ski area off Vt Route 9 is seeing selective cutting of recent growth on the previously cleared trails.
I was up there two weeks ago. It's looking SWEET! A small hike up, A good run down, then a hike back up again. We do it "after work" once the days get long in spring.
Sounds good to me!
