“Claws” 1987 Crustaceans Production
Maine lobsters are always a hit for Mother’s Day, so if you plan to bring some home for a delicious dinner this weekend, here are tips on how to cook & eat them… as well as a bit of humor to serve w/ them! A nod to our beloved chef Tiger Bragdon. Miss you…..
They don’t call them the Snowfields for nothing…
One of the truly unique, if not THE most outstanding feature of skiing (& riding) at Sugarloaf, is the chance to ski above the tree-line with lift service! Every season is different, & some are better than others, but for those of us who live here, any day at the summit of Sugarloaf is better than […]
Carrabassett River Canoe Race: another event from our Archives…
Sugarloaf held canoe races on the Dead & Carrabassett Rivers for many years during spring thaw, which drew paddlers from wide & far to take advantage of the high water-whitewater! It drew tons of spectators, too, with easy viewing along Rt. 27 in many places. Happy Spring memories from mountain melting water adventures in Carrabassett […]
Snowmakers’ Ball is Sugarloaf’s chance to Thank the People who Make It Happen!
The first one was in 1983 after a season that was slim on help from Mother Nature much like this year; the next one is coming right up on April 6, with extra kudos due snowmakers & groomers without whom we’d be mowing the grass early this spring like our neighbors down south! Irreverance is […]
National Body Sliding at Sugarloaf in the ’80s
The variety of methods & madness of the National Body Sliding Championship on Boardwalk as part of White White World Week was half the entertainment, the rest was all the mayhem of the trip down the slope! You’ll recognize several folks in this 25 year old+ video who still call the Mtn. home, with a grin & […]
Who remembers when we had hang-gliding at Sugarloaf???
Once again, a million Thank Yous to Michael Thom whose film camera captured rare footage of the hang-gliding ‘festival’we had in the ’70s at a time when a couple locals were doing it regularly (as often as possible!). This event was a real draw for the locals… the Who’s Who of the region can all […]
21st Century Ski & Snowboard Competition in Maine
We’ve recently acquired a copy of the video produced last year by the Ski Museum of Maine to share with WSKI’s viewers, as well as our website’s! Plenty of footage from our Archives, since we’ve been the only ones shooting video at Sugarloaf, or any other Maine ski area for that matter, for over 35 […]
Jud Strunk singing for Peter Webber
Talk about Local Talent! In the 1960s & into the 70s, Peter Webber was becoming a leader in the growing ski industry in Maine,
Amos & Friends Dancing
This blast from the past is sure to bring back memories of the decades of kids’ programs creating future Sugarloafers under the care of Marcia White & her fabulous crew. Bonus points if you know where the guy in the suit holding up the banners works now! Wee bit of irony; it was Top competition […]
