We got the summer update from Rob at the home of Winterstick snowboards & West Mtn. skis, at the base of West Mtn. chairlift, where handmade, beautiful wooden skis & boards are created, including splitboards, which sure would have been handy this past spring….. check out winterstick.com for a look at what they do, call & stop by to see for yourself. Another small business we are proud to have as part of the WSKI ‘family’. Made in Carrabassett Valley. What could be better????

Janel & Bob Peruffo shared with Greg how business is going from their offices in downtown Kingfield, from where they serve the region from the canadian border into Somerset County, from condos to farmlets, they have the local knowledge & experience to make it work for buyers & sellers alike!

For 40 years, about half of CV has been owned by Maine’s Penobscot Indian Nation, who have been good care-takers of our backyard, & for whom we are grateful that permission to do the outdoor activities we enjoy year round on PIN land, continued more or less as it did when Dead River Co. owned the land previous to the landmark Land Claims Settlement. Nowadays, there are more activities, more trails, more people who live here or wish they did. Hopefully, we can keep decision making & management local for the half our Town that would be affected by impending legislation. Looking forward to open communication all around for this important relationship to succeed for everyone. Long-time CV Selectman Lloyd Cuttler was living here when this all happened originally, so is a good one to hear from on the subject.
