Ok Guys,
I've been working with Starfish, and for that matter Pluto Sports, on the Resort List for Starfish for the last few issues, and we figured that there is so much information out there that we might as well tap into it. So we are now working on building a Snowskate Resort Guidebook. We need as many of you to contribute as we can get, and details too. I'm looking for notes and information for every mountain you ride at/have ridden at. We would like as much info as we can get. Simple notes as "strap needed for fixed" to in depth information talking about trails, lifts, parks, and where to avoid people who dont know what they are doing. Oh, and information about nearby places to stay (and drink for those +21, so not me) would be helpful too.
Thanks,
Steve

that also leads me to revising the current snowskate resort list. any mountain that does not have lift access (aka, park in the current list) will be cut out, because it is not worth supporting. With ALL resorts, of course, leash is assumed.

Mont-Belu,
La Baie, (Saguenay),  in the province of Quebec.
We are allowed to snowskate there if we have a leash.
there is one chairlift + one T-bar.
best snow condition for snowskating. they groomed everyday.

Snowskated at Mont-Tremblant Resort all weekend.
had the inner-tube binding for the chairlift politics over-there, took it off at the top of the hill. (awesome loophole)

Conditions were ok, the faster runs were still icy.

Sugarbowl opened their doors last week. That is the 1st of the big 3 here in the basin. Only Squaw and Alpine left. That's right, every single resort in the Lake Tahoe region welcomes Snowskaters (without having to fake some bullshit strap to our front foot) but those 2 and we're working on them.

I need everyone's help I'm trying to ride at 7 springs in pa. They just opened up there park the streets check out there pages on facebook. If everyone could ask that they let us ride it might change there mind. Keep it clean tho. I feel like this would help and would gladly return the favor to help get other resorts to allow it
