Slush · 2013-08-14 11:57:56

What's the smallest ski resort you've every seen? Here's a super small place near me.[IMG]651762[/IMG] Lift Tickets are 28$ for 4 hours on this mound of crap. Proof that it's real [IMG]651763[/IMG] Any other real small resorts?

too lazy to look but there is a bunch of places that small around were I live. Some of them have pretty cool rail setups and nightskiing though, so they are still pretty cool. Also cheap as fuck

holy shit....it's actually smaller than the ski hill closest to me. Brantling has 20 acres with 250 vertical feet and the place near me is 28 acres with 262 vertical feet.

But yeah, i can definitely feel your pain. the way I see it though is that it beats hiking.

Afriski resort in the Kingdom of Lesotho - must be somewhere up there with the smallest resorts.

The park is super nice though!

There's a place an hour from me that's about a 100 yards long and drops like 20 feet top to bottom. One trail and a rope tow.

What's the criteria. Are we going for places that call themselves mountains?

Willard Mountain is the most ghetto mountain I've ever been to, seeing that they are closed on Mondays. Also, I went to a high school race there and the access road is in the unknown parts of upstate NY.

Their park is mad ghetto tho, too. 505 feet vertical drop. IMO I think it's better than West regarding service.

West is like 1010 feet vertical drop, but West is overpriced, old, and they even filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this summer. I'm ashamed that West is across town from where I live, and I have to train there for my school ski team.

'The only terrain park in Africa' There was actually an African skier racing in the Olympics (I think Turin). His only experience of skiing was the Milton Keys snow dome, and in an interview he said something like 'I don't want people to think of me as an underdog'.
