  1. That was at 11 am.
  2. I swear I've been the only person on the mountain there a few times when night skiing during the week. It's a lot of fun. From their FB: "For Opening Day the trail count is at 8 with 5 lifts... we've got Limited, Mainline, Whistler, Cannonball, Boomer, Connection, Doc's Way, Nordic trails with Short Haul, Shuttle, Iron Horse, Phoebe Snow and Lesson Carpet lifts spinning!"
  3. Ok good then I won't have to worry.
  4. Haha good one. I'm confused by your salon pictures however.
  5. Yes I know and I try to predict what other people are going to do and sometimes they do the completely unexpected. That's why I couldn't wait to advance to blue and black trails so now I don't have to worry about that as much.
  6. Haha thanks for sticking up for me TP4, I've been getting a lot of shit on here lately. It's all good though. I personally refuse to be herded like livestock in a long queue anywhere. I'm not mad about it because Blue refunded my money. My most memorable times skiing are jumping on a high-speed quad and doing run after run after run on good quality snow, regardless of level of difficulty. #notacattle #incapacitated #cantmakeitthrougheverydaylife
  7. During my final 5 seconds on the snow yesterday, I was behind a skier on Vista, nearing the lodge. All of a sudden the skier makes a sharp left in front of me and falls, on virtually flat terrain. I don't know how, but somehow there was just enough space to get around him. Time seemed to stop during those seconds as I thought my ski season was over due to a pending injury. Thank God I get to ski another day.
  8. That was pretty funny. Atomic told me I was going to get banned. I thought it was the singles line because someone did that earlier before it got insanely crowded. It didnt work because I had to keep yelling any single riders? Even if someone agreed i bet i would have still ridden single because the rfid reader is so slow, and then I would have had an angry mob with skipoles instead of pitchforks after me. Good times and I get to come back using my gift card!
  9. Lol ok. Im done discussing it too. Lets move onto the weeks ahead and youll see that ill be much happier
  10. I complained because of all the empty lift chairs which is asinine when you have 200 people in line. Blue apologized on their FB and admitted they goofed. indiggio explained it perfectly. The lifts could have been running near full capacity if Blue planned better. Glad I left when I did because it literally got 4 times worse by 2 pm - I knew the crowds sure as hell werent going to get any smaller by afternoon.
  11. But if you had a good day what was your justification for giving you a refund? Had a good day with PASRs and the very few runs I did hit. Im not standing in 20 minute lift lines no matter how good the snow is or how incapacitated that makes me.
  12. Awesome, glad you had fun. Good to hear you got some decent runs. I did notice a lot of people falling yesterday, a lot of first timers were out. Yep. I expected crowds today to be similar to opening day, maybe a little more. Boy was I wrong, haha. Live and learn, now I know when not to go skiing
  13. Be careful around these parts, Ski2Live, I got flamed for a similar remark.
  14. Not sure, just found it on Google. But I'm not exaggerating a whole lot when I say that's what Blue looked like coming down Lazy Mile, and FB posts say it got much worse by 2 pm with one hour waits. Got a $39 refund so I'm happy regardless. I heard the same thing from ski patrol yesterday about Camelback getting half the trails open next week, so getting pretty stoked.
  15. Good times on the slopes. Glad you found your ski, that must have sucked. Guess I'm just anxious to get out and relive my own memories of cruising down empty moonlit slopes on a cold starry night. Can't wait until next weekend.
  16. None from me. Not a clue. My one and only point was that the image below does not appeal to me and it never will.
  17. Midway and Lazy Mile were excellent. Had fun hearing a story from Root. Good day. FB posts say lines got up to 45 minutes by 2 pm so glad I bugged out. I'm satisfied Blue refunded me and will be a returning customer because of it.
  18. That caught me off guard. I thought enjo was a cool guy when I met him. No need to get worked up, we're just having fun on here. I prefer runs over quality. I'm a new skier and still enjoy green runs. We all don't have to think the same way, lol.
  19. Nope. All I need is a reasonably fast lift line and fun terrain, and I'll have a great time.
  20. Lol. No comment.
  21. Not angry, just not doing 15 minute waits. Nope, I don't have a diminished mental capacity. Had fun at Blue and I'll be back when it's in better shape.
  22. .
  23. I can't understand why people will pay $100 per person at an amusement park to stand in line for 60-90 minutes per ride, to ride a roller coaster than lasts 30 seconds. Utter insanity. I'd honestly rather go hiking in the woods or snowshoeing.
  24. Disagreed. We all have personal preferences, and I'd rather be doing other things than standing in line.
