nm, dw, central park, switchback, yeti. anticipating challenge tomorrow

yikes also nm/dw might be opening a tad late today.

❤️

they'll also have to (hopefully) brave the trek there.

gonna be frigid sat. am 8deg and 14mph winds. with that being said -- -- sat sun mon

it was pretty good out tho. seemed like it was gonna be real busy before the gates opened but people were spread around pretty well. gates opened early and some dude just skied right up to grab a chair lmao. liftees stopped it before he could sit.

oof, weather guy showing two models (these are at 5am mon). i sure hope it isn't the second one.

... i've been trying to divert my attention from this lol it usually ends up in disappointment. if the forecast holds up tho it looks like free refills through the AM. @toast21602 are you working remote or do you have to go in?

i wish i could remember it better. the only recollection i have was the boot up area up the stairs that smelled like shit and eating PB&Js in the learning shack for lunch. ...and struggling with the t-bar.

is quad down?

YES.

did they say why? if not, demand to know why.

complain on twitter. the fact that the flight is almost complete complicates things though. if you are still at the gate, you could ask the agent for a better seat, but it's prob a small plane since you're going to allentown. for the future (for you and others) - i'm not sure who you're flying with, but was able to get fully refunded on american for a flight due to a stop being added (thank god because i couldn't extend the covid credit further and i didn't want the aggravation of planning a trip long in the future in just a few days). mainly pointing that out in case prices were to have gone down after it was switched. refund and rebook to save $$. but try twitter first. i have maybe 10 followers and no twitter clout, but i have always received a response. sometimes they'll go above and beyond - after a bunch of calls to dell and no traction, i sent a tweet saying something like 'thanks dell, now i have a fire hazard in my bathtub' and they replaced my laptop battery that was out of warranty for free. american also finally got me vouchers from a few years back. i managed to figure out a way to game their policy of expiring vouchers, got them extended another year. the phone agents didn't know how to (or didn't want to) handle it.

wtf, pioneer pass is an actual trail? i thought it was something on the learning hill or a lift.

if you are flying into ORD, go to garretts popcorn - the garrett mix (chz/caramel). you will not be disappointed. dont know if they have one at chicago midway but they might.

Stop. Don't get into the habit of calling it freefall. Are they really worth it tho?

Mf you literally just beat me to it. Im just wondering if falls is worth the trip.

Obviously they can't take the carts on the road. Worst case scenario, ski patrol could have pulled people in sleds with snowmobiles to the shack mid mtn.

Maybe, but no one should have to hike anywhere because of blue's incompetence. They could have towed them with snowmobiles or the cat. They drive multiple people in those golf carts.

Leaving people stranded at the valley is insane.

99pct of the time, at the bottom, there's an option to skip.
