skidude Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 If your going to be an a$$ hole to people...why they going to let you stick around Either way you look at it, MRG sucks without the single, and since you can't ride that, its not worth going to... Like I said, go make a snowboards only resort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidude Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Have fun....turing montage into a snowboarders only monuntain means one thing... death by ski999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metz the Jersey boy Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Wow.... he'd burn the place down. Its interesting though. I can't see Montage going boards only. I can definitely see Bear Creek doing it, however. I'd hate to see that happen, though. I liked that hill the one time I was there... Mountain Creek could pull it off too. I'd say that roughly 50-60 percent of the snowsports enthusiasts at Creek are boarders. I'd be curious to know the exact statistic. They do have a strong racing program there, and that would be something that would hurt them if they went boards only. Still, with terrain parks set up mostly for boarders, and their clientele, it might work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
train36 Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 There is one resort I know of that does not allow skiers, it was in snowboard magazine a little while ago. The place is called raging bull snowboard park, its in chicago and is more of a hill than a resort but its still pretty cool, heres the link : http://www.ragingbuffalo.com/snow_home.htm Check out the terrain pics, looks like the stuff is setup pretty nice.

Philpug Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Another thing I love about MRG..truth is 'snow conditions'... Mad River Today Feb 18, 2006 at 09:00:00 The wild winter of 2006 continues and once again THE BAR OPENS AT 11AM, come on in and catch the Olympics, enjoy a Single Chair Ale and maybe even take a run or two - If You Can! After warm temps with sunny skies and some of the nicest spring-like conditions you could have imagined on Thursday, things turned ugly (again!). What a difference a day makes. On Friday the temps plummeted from the 50's at 8 AM to below 20 by noon. We saw an onslaught of rain and a tremendous wind storm with 80 mph gusts that took out power for the entire day. The rain turned to blowing snow around noon on Friday and we have picked up an inch or so of new snow. We lost a fair amount of base during this weather event and things are certainly wicked firm this morning. Today's skiing is for EXPERTS ONLY! We plan on "skiing" on roughly 9 trails off of the Single, the Sunnyside Double, and the Practice Slope. Due to the limited terrain, tickets are $35. Come on up and ski the legends that are Antelope and Fox/Vixen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metz the Jersey boy Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Yeah, I have to admit. Up here in the Mad River Valley things could be a little better. Sugarbush had some really grippy snow today though... too bad they couldn't open more than 2 lifts due to wind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrian Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 it would never happen at montage, but at some privately held hill, it would be at least an infinitesimal possibility. ski it if you can! mad river glen i wouldnt ride it if i could.

Granola Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 mad river glen i wouldnt ride it if i could. dude let it go boo hoo you cant go and snowboard one place on the entire east coast what a tragedy, i dont know how you get by day to day with that burden on your shoulders you keep dumpin on MRG for its tradition and its really starting to get to me so i guess if it really makes you feel better you can go sit in the MRG parking lot and throw a hissy fit and maybe they will let you hike up the beginner hill, hell i will even drive you up there it says your out in wilkes barre im right here at misiercordia in dallas i will swing by later just give me a shout.
