Training begins soon!

Welcome to the 2014-2015 ski season. Training begins on Saturday December 6th this year, 8:30 am meet in front of our building. Hopefully skis have been tuned and boots have been worn a bit around the house. If anyone has equipment questions, please give a call or send an email as we are happy to help.

Skiing has been good so far this season and with a storm on the way this week it should be even better by the weekend.

I have had some inquiry about season passes. Gore is in the process of printing them at this time. If you would like to ski this coming weekend, just come by the Training Center. If your pass is not ready we will issue a day ticket.

Have a great Thanksgiving and I look forward to seeing everyone soon,

Athlete Conduct

 

We anticipate that all athletes attending the U18 USSA Finals will be well behaved. Gore Mt. Ski Center is a wonderful host to ski racing and works hard to produce ideal race trail conditions for all of our races. We ask that all athletes, coaches, and parents treat the Gore Mt. personnel and the skiing public politely on the hill and in the lodge.

 

Our ski patrol requires the use of the safety bar on the chair lifts and requests that racers control their speed on open public trails.  Absolutely no tucking anywhere off the race trail. The patrol is very strict.

 

Accommodations

North Creek has motels and guest houses minutes from the mountain.  There are a number of places within 20 or 30 minutes of Gore Mt. spread throughout the Town of Johnsburg in the various hamlets.  Nearby Chestertown, Indian Lake and Warrensburg also provide opportunities and are each about 15 miles away.  Further are Lake George, Queensbury, and Glens Falls all about 40-45 minutes away (36 miles). Look on the Goremountain.com website there is a link to area lodging.

 

Tuning facilities are available in the NYSEF training center,

Please clean the tune room when finished.

 

 

Congratulations to all invited to the U18 USSA Finals race series!

Any questions please feel free to call our training center during the hours of 8-4:30PM.
