The mountain 
Gore Mountain (1,100 m - 3,600 ft) consists of four peaks (Gore, Bear, Burnt Ridge, and Little Gore mountains). The three smaller peaks are below Gore, so the peaks are not separate.
The summit area (Gore Mountain) contains the Straightbrook and High Peaks areas, on either end of the summit ridge that the Cloud trail follows.
Bear Mountain's south, east, and north sides contain the Topridge, Northwoods, and North Side areas, respectively.
The Burnt Ridge Area is one of Gore's newest. It is served by a four-person chairlift, the Burnt Ridge Quad.The most recent development at Gore has been focused on the Ski Bowl.
