What's New at Ski Beech for 2007-2008!

One of the more noticeable changes at Beech this season will be within their terrain park area (called "The Meadows". According to Gil Adams, We will have several new terrain park features and a staff to maintain the park. We have graded flat our old half-pipe to make room for this “new” terrain park.

Ski Beech was the first High Country ski area to allow snowboards, and they built a half-pipe before any other area had any park-like features.  However, according to Adams. "For the past couple of seasons we felt as if we were falling behind in what some of our boarders and skiers wanted in a terrain park, so we decided to step up and move in a direction that we hope will bring new fun and excitement to our terrain park."

During the off-season of 2006, like numerous ski resorts in the region, Ski Beech beefed up (and spent more than $850,000) on their snowmaking capabilities!  They replaced snowmaking equipment along numerous trails including Oz Run, Upper and Lower Shawneehaw and the Meadow. This provides Beech the ability to make snow quicker on The Oz Run, which is not only a crowd favorite, but serves to dissipate the crowds on busier days.

Five new airless snow making machines arrived at Ski Beech in mid-October (of 2006) to add to the arsenal of snow making equipment.
