Base Facilities
Ski Bluewood facilities include a full-service ski/snowboard rental department, retail shop, patrol services, ski and snowboard learning center, cafe, and pub.
Bluewood is one of the few resorts in the country that is 100% self-sufficient, generating all of its own electric power via diesel generators. The main chairlift (Skyline Express) itself is diesel-powered, via a clutch and fluid coupler. The Triple Nickel lift is electric and uses power from the main diesel generators, located in the basement of the lodge.

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or facilities:
“All that are printed and bound are not books; they do not necessarily belong to letters, but are oftener to be ranked with the other luxuries and appendages of civilized life. Base wares are palmed off under a thousand disguises.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
