  1. Nice, looks like a fun little setup. MIght go check it out.
  2. There were shooting for Tuesday or Wednesday...but you saw what the weather was like. 1 or 2 nights of decent snow making should be enough for them to get some terrain open.
  3. How was Blue yesterday?
  4. They didn't open.
  5. 6 hour flex pass, Night, and All Day would be fine and make the sense compared to the mess they have now. There were people at Boulder on Sat that said they were there because they didn't want to pay for Blue so it certainly is keeping some people away.
  6. Interesting to see them scrambling to respond to the massive amounts of complaints they have gotten over their ticket pricing this season. Talk about a cluster fuck. They actually had people buying tickets on their phones at the lift window because they wouldn't ring up an 8 hour ticket for them and they were telling them about an all day pass that isn't available. I think every facebook post they make basically turns into people bitching about tickets in the comments lol. Probably going to want to get that fixed or people are going to go else where.
  7. I was up at Boulder on Sat. Conditions were very good and the park setup was excellent and fairly empty early but got pretty crowded up later. Over all a really fun day.
  8. Was way more than 5 minutes. Lift worker said they were understaffed which is why it wasn't running...not really sure how that happens on a holiday weekend. Snow was good, park was fun but got annoying later in the day with people hiking and sitting on features. Lift lines sucked until Burma was running....longest wait was right around 16 minutes. Ended up lapping the park using Vista chair for a good part of the morning to miss the line up. Rode from 8:30 till around 2, probably would have stayed longer but didn't want to buy another ticket. Over all a pretty fun day...not sure if it was worth the price with the terrain they have open over going to Boulder though.
  9. Yeah, I'm kind of surprised they didn't get open at least yesterday. I stopped by to grab my pass and they have plenty of snow and aren't going to get a chance to make any more between now and Tuesday. Oh well, still pretty sweet for them to open this early.
  10. Yep, they are all the time.
  11. Very true, but they still have a good amount of snow piled up as well. And a few chances to blow in the next week or so. We'll see, anything pre-xmas at BC is a bonus.
  12. Called up there yesterday and they said they could possibly open this weekend if the weather cooperates and they get enough snow or can make enough but as of right now they do not think it will be possible. That said, the guy I spoke with said next weekend is what they are shooting for.
  13. BB was a ton of fun this weekend. Park setup was legit for this early in the season. Snow was very good and crowds were surprising light. Great start to the local season.
  14. Why wouldn't I...that is a good album.
  15. Sorry for having good taste in music and not doing it all for the nookie.
  16. Hell no.
  17. Limp Bizkit was never relevant.
  18. How was it? Probably heading up this afternoon.
  19. Mostly likely shooting back up to VT this weekend to avoid the opening weekend shit shows.

    Yep. And their park is on point.
  21. They would get a ton of ticket sales opening Thanksgiving weekend, not just season pass holders. Every mountain would. Like toast said, during the early season people come out in droves to get on the snow. Based on the forecast I would think 1st or 2nd week in Dec is more realistic though.
  22. If they have the snow they would open for Thanksgiving weekend...that's a money maker of a weekend.
  23. They are blowing now.
  24. Yup.
