Just added Mt. Rose Ski Resort. I’ve developed a new tool for myself, to make adding new resorts with Google Earth Plugin go faster. More information is needed for the overlays, the view point, and the placemark for Google Earth. Keeping track of all that stuff for each new resort was slowing me down, so [...]

I’ve just put up some 3d java models of Sugarloaf, and Sugarbush. Because of its size, Sugarbush is split into Sugarbush South and Sugarbush North.
