All of their detachable lifts have issues when it isn't 60 degrees and sunny with no breeze. They are so crappy. 

Were they inspected this year?

They have to be if operating them. The inspections are mostly for safety, I believe. Not so much for mechanical reliability.

Instructor dude on the lift said sixer is fine, that they planned on running only the quad due to no crowd and it took an extra minute to get up in the cold.

It ran just fine and there were some pretty strong gusts today.

Used to work for bosses like this.

From a user standpoint, wtf is the difference?

So that I understand the consequences better, what are the everybody's expectations of this? BM on Epic pass, even bigger crowds, death of VIP lane?

If Vail buys blue likely parking attendants, employee uniforms(sorry no Grateful Dead T-shirt’s for liftees), VIP lane is a blue phenomenon so probably death to that..perhaps 9am opening on weekdays and 830am on weekends, pay parking, I don’t see bigger crowds happening. Everybody who wants to ski Blue is already there and they only have so much capacity.  I really hope Barb consults with some of the core Blue passholders like me, Atomic Jeff, Root and Salty before making the big decision.

Sure if you count the change.  Im guessing mid 8 figures.  Then with vails money Blue can build a nice valley lodge, water park and hotel.  Ski2Live is probably hoping for more glades along with a 7th grade pass for $99

That Wednesday private snow tubing party was probably what sealed the deal! 

I heard they flew Jimmy Buffett in for a private concert in the tubing tent.  Margaritaville and cheeseburger in paradise were performed including the remix with Ja Rule
