Ben you and toast are the only people who watch the webcams constantly. 1 Quote

That’s discrimination against non season passholders. Blue always used to close later than the competition and Blue would be filled with bear creek and camelback passholders late season. Many of them eventually saw the light and the light was blue. Quote

Better than having to drive at least a few hours for skiing or not ski. Quote

I like the charity idea but not the charging passholders. I get that they have already been closed, but this opens up some room to get creative with what constitutes a ski season. Quote
Johnny Law Posted March 31, 2022 Report Posted March 31, 2022 I like that we have spies, like the groomer accidentally puts the carpet down and it's on here in minutes. I soooo hope they pull a quick one and open this weekend 1 Quote
