Jackson Hole stoke thread...2015-16!!!
saltyant replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in General Chat
@GrilledSteezeSandwich What time does your flight leave tomorrow? Are you flying out of Nork? Do you stay in a hotel house next to Nork the night before in case we get perder? Do you and Atomic Jeff share a hotel room? Will Atomic Jeff get you access to the exclusive Triple Platinum VIP United lounge, and First Class tickets? Do you get middle seat between Atomic Jeff and NM Ski? Be sure to write a report. -
I think Im going to give Camelback another go this Saturday. Blue Mountain the True Mountain guest services gave me a new season pass that says "Peak Two Peak" so I guess it'll work now. I know Enyoralas will be sad to hear I'll not longer be complaining about it on the face books if it happens to work this weekend. If it doesn't work again I'll probably up the ante and maybe even expand my complaining to the Northeastern Ski Forums face books group

@GrilledSteezeSandwich Do you plan to watch the Camelback webcams while you're at Jackson Hole??
-
Hey all, looks like another grate weekend is coming up. Does anyone plan to be at Camelback this weekend for First Tra x?? Rumor has it Coolmoor carpet is open and maybe Marjorie's Delight will be groomed.
-
Maybe Camelback will put a stop in BenM's backyard so people from Camelback can stop by and see him. Maybe the Camel mascot will even pay BenM a visit. That would be sick!
-
@GrilledSteezeSandwich I heard a rumor on the face books that Camelback wants to put in a high-speed one person transfer cabriolet between Camelback and Blue, but they would have to secure a permit to go over BenM's property so that might be a challenge.

Ok I'll let you know. Maybe I'll see @enjoralasthere and I can regale him and @pops with legendary folklore tales of woe and misery at the Camelback Water park mountains ski Hill stations slopes' season pass holders line during First traax hour. Afterwards we can all meet up with Ski2Live, Joy and Matt Edge and split a hot cocoa 6 ways
-
The best part was when @nastar glenn was lagging behind getting on the chair lift and almost ended up on someones lap, maybe @mbike-ski. Then Nastar would have been flagged as Jerry Of The Day.
-
Thanks for the shout-out. Today was radical and the best part was that it wasn't Camelback.

Word on the street is Stevenson temporarily stopped running this afternoon, but now it's running again. I guess it got tired out and needed a break. It's probably jerry-rigged to save a few pennies so they can pay their executives to brainstorm on ways to drive away customers more efficiently.

Yes. $900 for the pass and I couldn't get early access or season pass holder line because of that complete bullshit of a joke computer system. Really pissed me off last week, I left and went to Jack Frost. It'll be a long time before Camelback gets any more of my money.
-
Good one! Today I learned from Louise that Blue Mountain is known as a "Sister" mountain. Isn't that rad knowing that Blue Mountain's "Sister" mountain is Camelback, and not somewhere rad like Verbier or Chamonix?
-
Yes. They have workers there and they say "yOu hAvE tO goO toO gUezT SeRvicEz"
-
Next time I'm parking next to the Stevenson Lift and walking up to it in street clothes to test the pass at 8 am sharp, when it opens for First Tracks. Walking up and down steps in ski boots and carrying gear only for pass to not work, then trekking back and forth numerous times between gate and guest services, then having to drive to Jack Frost and start all over again just isnt for me.

Climate change is a major problem at Camelback mountain this season, you know. That's what someone on Facebook said. Climate change is why only 2 lifts worked for half the season and why less than half the trails were open, because some of the trails like Marjorie's face a certain cardinal direction that makes snow making difficult and the northwesterly winds that hit at a certain angle must cause trails like The Rocket to spontaneous combust during peak snow making hours, and those warm winds must also cause a freeze thaw cycle in the grease used to lubricate the ski lifts which is why most of them are broken, and only a few that arent exposed to those angles which deflect the climate change are still operational.
-
That will be rad, can't want to ski Marjorie's Delight in April!
-
@GrilledSteezeSandwichdo you want to go to Catamount and the Catskills with me, Ski2Live, VTMark, and Matt Edge to ski the glades and steeper double blacks??
-
I heard Marjorie Delight is not very delightful as they forgot to groom is so it's a sheet of ice.
-
Wow Just Wow. If only I had the patience to deal with this like below. But, sadly I don't and never will in this lifetime.
-
I saw a sign that it's now $45 to park at Scamel-Whack. WJW.

@GrilledSteezeSandwich Grate stuff!
-
Was this valet parking? I hope you left a big tip
-
Correct. At Blue you just sometimes get jabronis try to lift your car.
