Saurus Posted March 14, 2010 Report Posted March 14, 2010 Kodiak still had plenty of snow, Im sure they couldve done a pond skim. more like im sure they could have stayed open for a lot longer. If they didnt have enough snow at the exits of the chair lifts the snow could be transferred over. I remember a few seasons back andy got the grooming guys to take snow from the other side of the mtn to bring it to the park Quote
VTSKI Posted March 14, 2010 Report Posted March 14, 2010 ^ amen. couldnt have said it better myself Bear Creek deleted everyones posts on their facebook page haha (quote Bear Creek The team at Bear Creek is just as dissapointed about the way the season ended. No one could have predicted the heavy rain and although we tried our best, we just don't have enough snow to safely cover the ramps at the lifts and the bare spots on the mountain. Also, we do not generally delete posts by our guests. Howev...er, we have received some comments that are vulgar and offensive and therefore had to be removed. quote) TOO BAD THEY CAN'T DELETE POSTINGS ON HERE! Quote
boardin_nerd Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 The ONLY reason i still ride bear is because its the closest mountain to me... everything about this season sucked at bear id say... Quote
Shadows Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 you know, i got to say bear is legit as hell. this thread proves it. one thing i love and wish every park had was a definite connection and understanding of their park's riders. way to go BC, keeping it real. 1 Quote

Shadows Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 well, i dont know. they at least make an effort to hear people Quote
Justo8484 Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 there is a minor connection if anything. about 95% of what people suggest on here does not get done. that's because 95% of the stuff people on here suggest is mind-bogglingly retarded. 4 Quote
mollyskeez Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 nick is exactly right. Bear has an account on here for PR purposes, they inform us about stuff that is already on their website/will be shortly. tom is the only one that inquires about ideas being tossed around. Quote
Johnny Law Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 For awhile Bear was convenient but that ship has sailed....thanks for the memories BC. 1 Quote
Saurus Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 what about all the powder?? and waffles... Quote
rgrwilco Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 I NEVER thought i would see the day that spring mount was open longer then bear. remember 05/06 or 07/08? i cant remember which year, but bear closed down for like a month after opening weekend and lost all their snow but spring mountain stayed open basically the whole time? i think bear just cannot hold snow. i agree though, there is plenty they could of moved around. maybe they need to regrade the top area so its not a gian flat part where water just puddles and melts snow.

Humbleslc Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 Bear Faces the sun all day long, blue and spring do not, sun plays a bid factor in snow melt, think about it. Quote

Johnny Law Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 what are you talking about? i think all the mountains in pa face north... You are correct Bear faces NE, beyond problems that they can't fix the only thing that may have helped was better drainage but that's very expensive. Quote
HouseMuzik Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 It just seems to me like this was really poorly handled. You just cannot shut your guns off for two months straight and expect the snow to last. Their margins HAD TO be higher this year. Running those things (electric especially) is one of the biggest expenses on the mountain. There was just no warning at all... and then to have your CAD in a raging rainstorm. When I saw they were staying open I was like, wtf. Hmm, saving yourself quite a bit of money there I'm sure season pass prices will go up next year. Eh, just frustrated. I'm going to Camelback...

Humbleslc Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 They only closed because of daylight savings time. Quote
Saurus Posted March 15, 2010 Report Posted March 15, 2010 nah they closed cause i kidnapped sasquatch. Quote

rgrwilco Posted March 16, 2010 Report Posted March 16, 2010 i wish spring would get some nice rails and a jump or something. shits closer to me and the snow is always better than bears. the hotel is pimp for bringing never ever girlies up to though. Quote
Humbleslc Posted March 16, 2010 Report Posted March 16, 2010 You take everything I say serious, not all is true. Quote
burton11 Posted March 16, 2010 Report Posted March 16, 2010 im just pissed cause I couldnt get the annual gaper day photo in front of sasquatch this year.. fuck you bear Quote
