Glenmore Dry Ski Slope |
||
|
Following a press report in the Press and Journal about a planning application for a dry ski slope at Glenmore a BSCG spokesperson made the following comments:
"To some it seems like hype that this 18m slope is being hailed as a Glenmore solution to the lack of snow on Cairn Gorm. Perhap's it is telling that Bob Kinnaird, the
Chief Executive of loss-making CML calls it 'a tremendous idea'. Bill Wilson however with good reason comments that the operators are more interested in providing facilities for
bus trips than providing facilities for beginner skiers. He sees that the funicular has added to difficulties for beginners on Cairn Gorm. We will study the ski slope proposal. However now we
are more concerned by a major proposal for recreational developments at the Sluggan end of Glenmore Forest with far reaching and we believe very damaging implications for quiet
recreation and wildlife in this wonderful area."
