Schif Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 I had to wait for one of them 2 years ago. The worst thing is after the lift gets running and you get on, they stop it again at the top to unload the sled. Quote

The worst thing is after the lift gets running and you get on, they stop it again at the top to unload the sled. The guys in the chair in front of me had the chairs bouncing pretty hard while they were unloading him at the top, but the cable locks tight when it gets to the top wheel for unloading, so they didn't even notice...they gave it their best, though.

First headwall on cannonball had a nice lip. Quote
adrian Posted December 20, 2005 Report Posted December 20, 2005 now i regret skipping sunday. im planning on a lot of riding later this week. Quote
Sno Mountain Skier Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 SPECIAL BULLETIN the park has a very good chance of being open tommorow. Thats what the park guys said, so i take it that it will open. But I also heard a rumor of Friday but im going with tommorow. Quote
xNick11 Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 Sunday afternoon was the first time I ever had to stop and wait for someone to be loaded on the Phoebe in a patrol sled. The way they load them on the back of the chair makes for one f*cked up looking ride up the hill---not a lot of mountains have to evacuate someone uphill... ya i was about 3 lift chairs behind u with wolverine21 and i remember him saying he was goin to know the shit outta whoever was bouncing the lift haha..then i was thinking u were goin to sit at the top of the lift and i was goin to say something to u but u flew down to the lodge probably to get ur kid...but ya look for me up there over xmas break if im with montage skiier ill say something to u but i have a brown/tan jacket with tan pants and i have a giro mx.9(visor)helmet and i have white smith fuse goggles..just look for the sticker on my helmet and u will know its me Quote
adrian Posted December 22, 2005 Report Posted December 22, 2005 today was rather lame considering terrain (THREE trails). iron horse and all those blues were closed let alone the park. conditions on boomer and cannonball were very fun, loose all day. the first headwall had a sweet lip that everyone loved, and the only icy section was the lift loading area. virtually no real jumps at all unfortunately. hopefully ill see you guys tomorrow, friday, and saturday. -adrian Quote

I think it might open either tonight or tommorow. Quote

I think it might open either tonight or tommorow. didnt really stay up on mainline so im a frayed knot. i do know that snowmaking was in really high gear all over, and i wouldnt be surprised if they opened today.
