Does anyone know if ETAR is still going to take place this year (2018) at Ski Denton?

thanks flightmedic.  I wonder if they will ever put the ski lift back in operation.  It was nice to ride up the mountain and shoot your way down.

Yep it's happening.  We have paid for our booth space and will be in our normal spot.

I read an article that said ski left repairs are in the talks but didn't seem to commit that it was going to happen for certain.

Wouldn't hold my breath. The repairs are a major undertaking.

Good point Mahantango, and costly i would assume.  I am just happy they are having ETAR there again this year

Unless some entity starts the ski resort up again, there will never be a ski lift running for a few days in the summer.

Although I always enjoyed the lift ride up the mountain, in some respect, I like that not having it operating forced them to change the courses up.  We had been shooting the same courses for 20+ years.  The new layout has been in place for a couple years now, and it's still all new to me.

 That is a good point jsweka .  I liked going to the top and looking over the valley before shooting my way down.  Its peaceful up there.  You do have a good point about the courses being changed up though.  I like new and challenging shots.
