  1. I'm amazed by what locals think about passes like Ikon. Cost of window tickets is so absurdly high in the US that passes is the only way to ski w/o going bankrupt. So it's illogical to first make window prices sky high and then complain about pass holders. A question for you... Would you consider Squaw interesting enough to ski for a week, or would splitting between Squaw and Mammoth make more sense?
  2. Come tomorrow. Will probably be my last day at Blue this season.
  3. I do remember you saying that you'd buy a CB season pass if they ever stay open after Blue. This is it.
  4. Oh wow. I was about to dump two remaining tickets to JFBB, but this makes me reconsider.
  5. How's snow this evening? Still soft or frozen crud?
  6. And whose crutches are these?
  7. I chatted with them about expiration of buddy passes. 3/31.
  8. Getting back on topic, it's Salty's favorite kind of snow this afternoon. Wet, soft and buttery, whipped in so many places. 6 is running, 4 is not. Dead quiet.
  9. Yeah, I'll agree with Salty and will even sign a petition. The stats are fake unless they measure the actual hours on snow. It's fine to say that you're above stats in general and don't log them at all, but if you do, at least make it fair.
  10. GSS what's your skiing to parking lot time ratio?

    From the closed mountains? JFBB sells tickets until 04/13. CB's projected closing day is 04/08. EDIT: Well, actually, BM's projected closing day is also 04/08 according to onthesnow.com

    I'm not so confident. E.g. I've asked today if I can carry over my buddy pass over to the next year, and they said that nope, 03/31/19 is the last day when it can be used.
  13. Please don't tell me you're the singer
  14. There's a warmish (60) and rainy week on the horizon.
  15. Blue Vail... They should start thinking about rebranding.
  16. Can you just get a tad closer and ask nicely about what's going on? About Vail in general and heated seats in particular?
  17. Is there a link somewhere?
  18. Noooo. Imagine wet cement that hasn't set yet but is about to. Just look it up. It's not terribly grippy, just slower than usual. And the pond is the absolute slush right in front of the quad than you have to water ski through.
  19. Eh, autocorrect. Quad, of course. And yeah, wet, heavy, skis carve deep into this stuff.
  20. Nice cement all over. Little pond at the bottom of the guard. Soft and slow. Good thing I've waxed my skis yesterday night.
  21. There are quite a few comments on Liberty FB page about getting a BM pass instead of the Peak one. Now, if all that south PA clientele suddenly migrates to BM slopes, won't the weekends become even more "fun"?
  22. [sigh] Apparently I suck at joking. I did buy the pass, did pay $429 for it and tried to make a joke about giving BM my high approval of raising the prices, since now I don't really care whether the qualities are limited or not anymore. Thanks for the Rag heads up. The SkiFreak has already christened me an Elf, so there.
  23. Oh really? Remember your post-tailgate fall on the Falls? And now imagine being rear-ended on top of that? Like it?
  24. By getting some air? Did you flap your wings to avoid the guy or can your skis turn in midair?
