Yeah it's been frustrating the last few years to see all these other things done when it seems like the most important thing is to replace the quad.Wanakenatransplant wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2018 11:57 pm Beech has really great equipment, but not enough ponds and they are not aggressive about making snow. The owner, Costin, has been dumping so much into making his resort look pretty these past few years (as well as adding some snow guns), but ignoring key parts of his operation such as his aging quad lift, pump and compressor stations, and lack of water. Yeah, the village and lodge are nice but if you can't get enough slopes open quickly and get people to the top of the mountain quickly then who cares about the lodge and village. Sugar gets people to the top and gets their terrain open fairly quick. I have had a season pass to Beech the past 3 years, but I am definitely going to wait and see what Beech gets done for upgrades this summer. If they can't improve snowmaking capabilities and make some major improvements to the quad then I will consider not getting the season pass.
