That sounds like a lot and this is officially the year I go over and try it out one time. They should send Vail a Christmas card thanking them for not opening tubing and JFBB. 2 2 Quote

Not sure what Shawnee is but Blue does have a significant more amount of acreage to cover. 2 Quote
toast21602 Posted January 21, 2022 Report Posted January 21, 2022 Shawnee has like two more trails to open which they are blowing on now. Quote

I think they used to claim around 30 but once they got rid of family tubes the were able to get up to 47 with all singles. Quote

It's about a 13 minute ride which is insane! 1 Quote
C1erArt Posted February 8, 2022 Report Posted February 8, 2022 I’ve heard that Vail is going to replace most of the lifts at Frost and Boulder. I wonder if they will sell lifts from their other properties to Frost and Boulder and put new lifts in their first tier properties. They could play a lot of games with profitability, debt and tax strategies. They can’t play as many games with monthly expenses like labor and utilities, which is where they seem to be penny pinching. 1 Quote

Vail probably has a fairly large stockpile of used equipment laying around. Plus, moving things around from the top tier resorts to the lower resorts only makes sense. Quote
enjoralas Posted February 8, 2022 Report Posted February 8, 2022 I’m sure they can move some bunny slope lifts from out west somewhere to service the entire vertical at Boulder. 1 Quote
toast21602 Posted February 8, 2022 Report Posted February 8, 2022 Maybe Blue can give them a good deal on the quad and then replace that POS. Or maybe when the Summit Safari 8pack goes in from the base to the top of the doubles they can sell the out doubles to them. Short transport distance should make it easy. Just fly the whole thing over when you pluck it off the mountain. 2 3 1 Quote

Gonna be extra crowded today and even more potholes. I noted where they are for the drive back. 1 Quote
