Easy, youngs should get a break as incentive for parents to bring them to the mountain, as they're the ones that want chicken fingers, fries, waffles, lessons, adventure camps, etc. All the high-margin stuff us olds don't typically partake in.

A lot of places still use the hand scanners for some reason. Every mountain that I went to on my NH tour did. Some even still used a wicket ticket!

Won't be long, he's moving down to the Carolinas, giving up security and looking for a heavy machinery job soon or so he says.

Skiing's definitely not the profit center, but the motivator to bring people to the mountain where they've got (most) people captive in terms of food and beverage sales, where the real margins can be made. Skiing is definitely a loss leader for the mountains, but tubing on the other hand...

Why aren't they at Camelback then?

The summit VIP lot is paved, you could park up there to keep the dirt off your shoes.

SP was handing out cookies in the OG6 line today! @saltyant can also be in charge of the cookies in addition to hit chocolate.

It's far easier on the organizer to handle groups of 6 and they tend to just let them go ahead right away.

If people aren't grouping up on their own in the VIP line, we actively "help" people group up just so the line moves along quicker.

Recipe for a shit-show...

Mmmm...Volkswagen bumps.

Break, milk and eggs are all sold out!

Oh man, riding up the quad first thing was like getting off a plane in Florida in the winter! The warmth smacked you right in the face. Going over NMDW, the grooming was impressive and rode that first thing. Wow! The two turns were a hoot and didn’t really see the mini booter halfway down until I was in mid air. Barney’s needed a bit of slipping to scrape off the crust to let the warmth turn them hero which it did after about an hour. Ended up lapping them until lunch. Everyone was complaining about how outta shape we all are from not skiing bumps all season. After lunch headed back out for a few more mashed potatoes runs. Right side of CS had some good snow and Lazy was thick and deep with it. Legs are pretty shot from today’s conditions.

Last week the right side edge was almost non existent. Was skiing the edge with @MattEDGE and a rock got a hold of him and threw him down. Lots of rocks were mixed in with the sugar. Outta the box and into the rocks!

C'mon GFS!

Wonder what havoc this may cause? Sounds like not much, hopefully... https://www.powder.com/trending-news/jhmr-officially-sold?fbclid=IwAR2atVljqjvaDJUVf5tkR_IUK2HXte0OluglYgiDM82xox3JRXbdD6aq28Q

Wow, the grooming was night/day improvement over yesterday’s disaster of an attempt at grooming. It only goes to prove that Blue’s groomers are actually capable of putting down some decent cord, if they want to (or may be allowed to). Ran the ridge on Coming Soon which was ROTD but the ridge has practically disappeared into nothing but the weeds. Not a whole lotta fun elsewhere and just lost interest in the same old situation. Parking lot beers were fun as usual and kudos to @enjoralas for some tasty jambalaya!

Going down Razor's after it's been urea'd to death and ski patrol doesn't see a need to close it...

There no sense at all believing any forecast longer than 3 days out.

Huh? Nighttime temps in the 20’s this week with clear skies and low humidity.

Hopefully it and warmish temps make for some hero snow.

Good to hit the trees when it's foggy, so long as the snow is good.
