Funk that, I only do things the most efficient way possible. That's the antithesis of efficient and a colossal waste of time. Only gapers put their boots on in the lodge. 

Wait you’re call BethlehemFord Guy a gaper..oh wait lol

JFDan gave me a purple cucumber for protesting this outrageous parking travesty. I'm super stoked he's showing full support. Maybe we can start a sit in protest in the middle of Razors Edge and a hunger strike where we eat nothing but Captains Wafers until our parking rights are fully restored.

You would pay hundreds of dollars per year in order to avoid a 100 yard walk? 😂😂

I’m just talking out of my ass like all you speculaters.  We already park 100 yards farther away than necessary.

Good thing JFDan isn’t a homosexual or he might give you his purple cucumber.  Behave salty.

My best guess is that they will install a kiosk style parking system with an attendant who will walk around and scan license plates for people who didn't pay via app or kiosk and then give them a ticket and/or call to have them towed. I bet they send an email to all passholders having us register our license plates by the time the season starts next year.

People won’t be interested unless the “protest” involves getting free sneakers and timberlands

   "never skiing at Blue Mountain again"

Purple Banana for the above statement.  I see no reason to protest, but possibly celebrate.

I figured the same, pay to park and then park anywhere. I don't see them sectioning off SP from general paid. Unlike at Camel with the multil levels and all the stairs, the lot doesn't lend itself well to a Premium parking, unless they call the area over by the learning hill "premium" for proximity. A little easier to sell with the new lift, but those in the know realize that lift won't serve the best terrain anyway.

Blue's upper lot could be easily stratified into premium/general, but you already have to be a donkey to park up there, let alone consider it at all "premium."

I just said I'm done skiing. I'm still planning on coming to the parking lot every single weekend to hang out with you and JFDan.

Can't imagine having to ride that dumb golf cart like some plebian.

@Benm any radio chatter about the Vista lift? Curious about that based on the weird verbiage in the leaked "anouncement"

Leaked announcement?  Might as well start up the rumor mill around here.

Maybe u can fly over blue and skywrite "say no to free parking". And maybe they will skywrite STFU back at you. And maybe you'll post something that doesn't contain hypotheticals and maybes. Maybe?

It’s lemonade stand economics.  I feel like they’re charging $10 for a glass of lemonade on a cool day they should lower the price to tree fiddy a glass and include free ice and a straw. 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

If they don’t sell for $1200 I could see them lowering the price to something more economical like $1100.  They weigh 135 pounds so less than $10 per pound.  

[AtomicSkier]

$1200 is probably leaving a little on the table, but still a fair price for a piece of Blue Mtn history.  Who is buying one?

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Abasin sold their Pali chairs last year for $2500 a piece and they sold fast.  The Pali chair didn’t even have a safety bar which gives blues sale a bit more value.
