Our interclub race has been run almost every year since 1936, but due to the current Pandemic it has been cancelled for 2021. The Met Council’s ski clubs with a total membership close to 8,000 reflect all interests. Some recall our backgrounds, for example, the Norsemen, Swedish and German Ski Clubs; some our workplaces like Grumman or LILCO; others residence locations like New York, Suffolk and Garden City; and even National history - the Tenth Mountain Division, like the NY Ski Club.. The Council is a forum for local, national and interna - tional skiing concerns. It organizes special events and presentations, develops programs, listens to gripes and praises, all part of the friendly and invigorating sport of skiing. Its efforts are very important in helping support the U.S. Olympic Team, the Ski Hall of Fame and working with the U.S. Ski Association and the National Ski Patrol System. “Special effort is continuing to work with the United Ski Industries Association, the new name for the merged National Ski Areas Association with the Ski Industries of America and now known as USIA, located at 8377 -B Greensboro Drive, McLean, Virginia, 22102; re promotions geared toward safety in skiing programs and the new skier campaign”. American Skiing was born more than 100 years ago with the Nansen Ski Club of Berlin, N.H. and Norwegian settlers of Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan. After the turn of the century, the National Ski Association was formed, followed by its first division, The Eastern Amateur Ski Association chartered at Saranac Lake, N.Y. in 1922. When the Federation International de Ski (FIS) was formed (Chamonix, 1924) the National Organization joined them. Due to the distance between New York City and these organizations the regional Met Council was begun here in 1934. Since then Eastern has dissolved and USSA has moved to Park City, Utah, making the Met Council an even more important forum for Eastern Skiing. Founders of the Met Council were an important factor in leading the U.S. ski move - ment, and witness Roland Palmedo, who played a great part in the original development in Stowe, later starting his own ski area - Mad River Glen. He was instrumental in the early stages of the National Ski Patrol, carrying the number 2. About this time the Metropolitan New York Ski Patrol was formed with Ken Littlefield as chairman. The Patrol newspaper ‘Trail Sweep” was started by Ken Littlefield and later carried on by Tom Ludwig, also a council member. Another council member, John Clair, Jr., served for 25 years as Regional Chairman of the Metropolitan New York Region Ski Patrol. Although fewer than ten percent of our membership actively compete, we enjoy and support competition. Over the years this council has been host to American and Foreign ski teams and VIP’s visiting the United States largely because of it’s location and because of the efforts of the late John Clair, Jr. 7 Metropolitan New York Ski Council Harry Walter Voege Memorial Scholarship The Council is offering a $1000 scholarship for our eight year. The Metropolitan New York Ski Council Scholarship application is available on line at www.metnyski.org.

The system would need to fit in a small space in close proximity to the facility and require limited to no maintenance. Qnergy Solution Due to power outages at the site, SnowBasin was interested in testing a Qnergy SmartGen system as a source of alternative power at their centrally located Earl's Lodge. A 6 kW Remote Power system with additional Power Interface Package, battery enclosure (3000 AH) and inverter was delivered and installed at the Snowbasin resort facility through a 48Vdc architecture. The facility was upgraded to convert natural gas into electricty as a supply to the facility grid. Additional 120Vac 45A electrical outlets were installed for independent emergency electrical supply in case of grid failure. Results Qnergy's SmartGen Remote Power system with additional accessories has been operating since October 2016, with a daily NET power production of greater than 130 kW-hr. The system has operated with 99% operational availablity where temparatures have ranged from 23oC to -22oC and over 421 inches of total snowfall has occurred over the last 6 months (121 inches base snowpack).

  • 1 Timeline of Vermont Skiing Ca. 1853: “At Some Time in His Middle Years
    Timeline of Vermont Skiing New England Ski Museum In preparation for 2014 Annual Exhibit Ca. 1853: “At some time in his middle years he (Joseph Seavey Hall) built a trail up Burke Mountain, near East Burke, Vermont, and later enlarged it into a bridle path. He claimed that it was he who transformed the Crawford Path from a blazed and cairned trial into a bridle path. He built the first summit house that was anything more than an emergency shelter. He completed the Carriage Road from just above the Halfway House to the summit…In his early forties he marched through Pennsylvania with the 11 th regiment, Vermont Volunteers, and fought in the Battle of Gettysburg. …After the Civil War he went west, mined silver in Nevada, and then moved on to California, where, according to family tradition, he once more indulged his passion for building roads up mountains and houses on mountains by constructing another carriage road, this one up Mt. Diablo.” Bradford F. Swan, “Joseph Seavey Hall, White Mountain Guide,” Appalachia, Magazine number 130 (June 15, 1960), 57-58. 1860: “Mountain recreation at Burke dates back to 1860 when Lt. Joseph Seaver (sic) Hall of East Burke cut a trail to the mountain’s summit and erected a cabin there. Picnickers and hikers used the trail to climb to the mountaintop which was a popular pastime in Vermont in the late 1880s.” Karen D. Lorentz, The Great Vermont Ski Chase . (Shrewsbury, Vermont: Mountain Publishing, Inc., 2005), 54 1892: “Winter sport was organized on a permanent commercial basis under the direction of the Woodstock Inn as early as 1892, when the inn opened its doors for the first time.
