It was an old creepy hotel and abour a 25 minute drive to the mountain. The place closed down for several years and is now a senior citizen home.
At that time I was with a group of instructors from a Brooklyn ski shop that ran bus trips to VT (Peak-Alta ski shop). Saturday night we drove up to the Wobbly but my fake ID did not impress the sharp eyes of the bounser and I could not get in. I wound up hitching a ride back to the Bardwell.
