I’m sure you discussed this area before, but darn if I can come up with it.

<blockquote class=“Quote” rel=“NewEnglandSkier13”>Here’s mine: • over 200 vertical feet • no chairlift • open six days of the week with night skiing on five of those days</blockquote>

Probably time to move on.  There are 100s of ski areas that fit the first two clues - and the last is really a year-to-year management decision.

Idaho? We’re looking for a tiny little ski hill in Middle Nowhere, Idaho? One coincidentally named Little Ski Hill? Man, degree of difficulty is going up steeply.

A twofer: Two New England ski areas both have a trail with the same name. At one, it’s an easy trail. At the other, it’s a treesy trail. Name it. One is a little unusual in that it never had any T-bars. The other once had 2 T-bars replaced by a chairlift. Both areas have had their vertical drop increased from when they first opened. One by going up in the 80’s, the other by going down in the 60’s.

Thanks Snowmaster. You are the master. See edit above. Your areas…no clue. Oops, I mean no idea. WAG is Haystack & Killington.

Snowmaster

Hint #1: the two areas have no lift manufacturers in common. As best I can tell, they hardly ever have, except for those two T-bars that were replaced by a chairlift.
