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:
“Your top has sunk too low,
Your base has spread too wide,
For you to roll one stone
Down if you tried.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
