Berkshire East, MA - ◊/🟦 Competition/T-Bar Express Liftline (12-28-25) [4K]

I'm still very delighted that my home mountain has a high-speed lift of their own. The natural snow under it looked nice enough to try, though the rest of Upper Competition was quite icy. The drop-in was a lot rockier than I expected, and the snow was a bit crusty up there as well, but otherwise it was a great run and one that I don't mind re-uploading since I've covered the rest of Comp a couple times by now.

As a side note, it's interesting to see they've marked the trail under the very top of the T-Bar Express (as "Avalanche") but don't show it on the map or website. I've never been around when it's been open (there's a chance it's never been open since snow was pretty abysmal the 2 seasons they've had this lift), but hopefully some of the harder stuff will be open when I'm here so I can re-record some of the glades as well!

Advice: Not much to say here other than mind any dirt patches you see on the way up.
