As Carrabassett Valley’s miles of mountain bike trails grow & get more popular every year, here’s a reminder of the days when the Mountain had mountain biking DOWNHILL style… made only more fun w/ damp & foggy conditions for mud & slick cruising for this version of a wicked fun gravity sport, not for the faint hearted or those afraid of more than a faceful of dirt!!! Note the changes in bikes & tires since then!!!!!
4th of July in CV; it’s a tradition!
This year’s events last all afternoon, capped off w/ the fireworks at dusk Monday night! This footage from the ’80s shows the same spirit of community has been an integral part of life in CV for a long time… recognize anyone???
Cathedral Pines Pathways & Eustis Ridge Overlook
Just north of Sugarloaf in Eustis are the unique “Cathedral Pines”. Beautiful tall Red Pines that tower above the landscape. On the corner of Eustis Ridge Road and Rt27 are some nice and easy trails to explore the Cathedral Pine forest. Great for hiking and biking in the summer months, and groomed xc ski trails and snowshoeing in the winter.
Just about a mile and a half up Eustis Ridge road on your right you’ll find the Eustis Ridge Overlook park. Picnic tables and great views of the Bigelow range can be enjoyed here… [Read more…]
Summer Gondola Ride
Wonder if we’ll ever have anything like this way to summit our mountain again?
Grandparents & little ones, all enjoyed the ride up & down, & incredible panoramic view while having a picnic on the deck, with that full 360 degree view from the Whites & Quebec, to Maine from east to south, all visible with just a few steps on the rocks above the Octagon.
Thankful? … you bet; for guys like these who made our Mtn. into the Legend it is in the East!
This casual conversation between original Sugarloaf patrollers Stub Taylor & Dana Wallace was captured in the Patrol Locker Room in Admin. during the early 1990s. It is a gem for the memories they share! It’s hard to imagine how different things were 60 years ago, but it’s easy to see this hard-core skiers’ mountain, has been respected & revered, & deeply loved, by three generations now! This seemed a good time for us at WSKI to remind everyone of all the gratitude we have for those who have gone before to make the Mountain what it is today!
