snowgangsta Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 i am a employee at bear and it will be closing most likely after sunday as told by higher ranking employees if not it will be daily decision to keep bear open. Quote
Tyler Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 wow, i didnt see this one coming but yeah it still sucks I'll be up there tomorrow nonetheless. If BC could make it through tomorrow and monday, accuweather says they can blow tuesday wednesday and maybe thursday Quote
Papasteeze Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 That freakin sucks!!! BB is in really good shape and I saw little if any melt off yesterday. It dropped several degrees below freezing last night. Quote
sexkitten Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 WHAT???!!!? Bummer. Guess I'll be at Blue for Christmas break. Quote
BC-Mark Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 This weather is a killer. We actually had ski patrol out hauling snow in their sleds yesterday just to keep a path open from the top. We are looking at Tue/Wed night for our next opportunity to make snow. Hopefully Canada gives us a giant cold front for Xmas! Keep thinking cold thoughts for us! Quote

sexkitten Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 (edited) 12/18/2006 @ 1:30pm from http://www.skibearcreek.com/winter/ Oh, that just makes me want to cry. I would be willing to sacrifice my bra AND panties and do the snow dance naked in the middle of Kodiak if you thought it would help. Let me know. Haha. Seriously, that freaking mess really, really, REALLY sucks for BC and for us. Oh Mark... I'll send you some Kleenex for Christmas... and some Vodka... you're going to need it.

Justin Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 12/18/2006 @ 1:30pm from http://www.skibearcreek.com/winter/ oh...my...god that gave me a stomach ache. I wonder if BC will be open by my schools ski trip in feburary...hahaha but if they aren't open for christmas/new years week, thats gonna be a killer....the only other holidays they can hope for is MLK weekend and President's day...but next week is going to be crucial for business. hopefully blue wont be too crowded that week Quote
rgrwilco Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 tuesday and wednesday nights seem to be the only nights to make snow until next tuesday i wont be at blue, id much rather go to big boulder. Quote
Papasteeze Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 i wont be at blue, id much rather go to big boulder. you know whats up! Quote
ltd_chick78 Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 oh. that photo brought a tear to my eye. and not the good kind. Quote
GNU_rider Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 Did anyone get to ride sunday before they closed, because despite it being ridiculously warm it was pretty fun and the conditions weren't as bad as I'd expected! Let's hope canada gives up the love for us. Quote
BC-Mark Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 Thanks for all the support. We are all definitely crying the blues. I think sexkitten has hit on a idea for a weather independent revenue stream! We are going to try an fire up tomorrow night and wednesday and get the slopes open again. Maybe everyone can bring up a tray of ice cubes to help the cause. Quote
rgrwilco Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 haha yeah papasteez, it seems that bear creek and the parklogic dudes are the only local places that know how to build boxes and rails, so id rather drive an extra hour and have fun then go to blue and get frustrated like i always do when im there. and mark, i would seriously bring ice if you guys were ever serious about that. isnt there an additive that you can add to your pond so you can make snow at higher temps? i think ive heard other places using this, not sure if you guys do or not, but with the way the winters are going you may want to look into that for the future. Quote
sexkitten Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 Maybe everyone can bring up a tray of ice cubes to help the cause. I could do you one better and "borrow" some snow from Blue. We could have quite a few trucks full of borrowed snow by the weekend... just say the word. Haha. Quote
GNU_rider Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 So this ice cube notion..... I think we should just get everyone to pitch in on like tuesday night and drop as much ice as we can into the ponds and hope for the best. Quote
petter369 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 yeh, this really sucks..i am so pissed i didnt even make it up once. I was going to head up on sunday but an employee told me saturday night that bear was going to be closed on sunday..now i got a season pass without going before christmas Quote
Tyler Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 you gotta stop beleiving those employees. Most of the time they know nothing more than any of us. They here the rumors just like we do. Dont believe anything unless you see it on BC's website or posted by BC mark, BC parkstaff, and Bear Creek PR. Quote
Papasteeze Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 but an employee told me saturday night that bear was going to be closed on sunday it did close on Sunday, end of the day, sunday... Quote
Tyler Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 yeh, this really sucks..i am so pissed i didnt even make it up once. I was going to head up on sunday but an employee told me saturday night that bear was going to be closed on sunday..now i got a season pass without going before christmas anyway, sunday was hella fun Quote
petter369 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 it did close on Sunday, end of the day, sunday... true althouh he said it would be closed sunday...O well, i am just doing the snow dance for now, until i see some cold temperatures. Quote
rgrwilco Posted December 20, 2006 Report Posted December 20, 2006 the forcast keeps turning from bad to worse. hire some mercenaries to truck in snow from the mountains further north under the cloak of darkness... Quote
