I asked Doug what was happening and here is his reply:

Thank you for your interest in Laurel Mountain State Park. All of the permits have recently been submitted to our construction arm of the Commonwealth; The Department of General Services. We anticipate this project going out to bid in the near future.

If the project gets advertised within the next 2 months, it would mean award of the contract by late summer. This should provide enough time to complete the construction in time for the 2013/2014 ski season.

Here is the reply from 7 Springs:



Good morning, Thank you for getting in touch. Nice to hear from you again.



As of my last conversation with DCNR spokesperson Chris Novak late last month, Laurel will not re-open this winter. The design work is done, DEP permits are in line, water and sewage are set with the township and they are finalizing a power agreement with West Penn Power. After the power agreement is in line, the construction bids will be released and they are approximating a year for completion.



Personally, I can’t wait for Laurel to re-open! It’s a wonderful place and I know my teammates here are just as anxious as I am. Please let me know if I can help with anything else.



Have a wonderful weekend!

Neither good or bad.

She is saying exactly what a PR/marketing person should say or was told to say when inquiries about Laurel are made.

As I said before, if Laurel reopens again, it will be in spite of, not because of current ownership. However...

Has anyone hiked/biked/walked back to the Lodge recently?

Just curious if there are any signs of activity besides decay and neglect.

The construction contract still has not been advertised for bids. I check the web site regularly.
