What up guys?
Canaan Valley had one of its best days ever on Sunday with 1,500 day tickets sold. Skiing is still allive in the valley.
I hope I can make Corridor H trips before my kids grow up!
This could be a model for Timberline in the future:

Rental $ helps defray costs. The mountain still makes money selling other services such as food, beer, rentals, etc.
I think there may be a trust that they only have access to if they are running a ski resort. This is purely speculation. Either that or they are trolling the locals for the lolz.What I don't really understand is why they are hanging onto it - stubborn pride?
Update about the lodge from the TL Facebook page posted last night (1/5):"The facility did not pass its second inspection, and more items were added to the original list as well."
The roaches are an interesting issue. Those pests are not supposed to live in cool, high elevation places. The lodge was without heat for a good portion of the year, so I am suprised there is a roach infestation.
