nick Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 BC sucks! I would rather ride in my backyard! It's bigger. Â If your gonna say this kinda stuff go do it in your own forum were people might actually care. I realize your just expressing your opinion but considering it has nothing to do with anyhting this thread is talking about, i kinda think that was a really stupid thing to say. Sooooo maybe you wanna go start another thread on the blue mt or elk sections on how bear sucks, or maybe one where you compare the sizes of your backyards, that might be fun, but please dont do it here. Â P.S.- your facial hair sucks....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks, even if they offered a 100 day guarantee. It's like buying a season pass to a hotel. If your dumb enough to buy a season pass to that bump then don't bitch about the length of season. I would rather go bowling with Sexkitten than ride at BC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachiegirl2ski Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 BC sucks will never ski there again, try to get someone to call you back about issues, wait and wait. It has been 3 months now and noone returned call. I was told they would do something for season pass holders, and they come up with the 65 day soloution? Are you kidding me!!!!!!!!!! I work in AC and can only ski mon and tues, , are there 65 mondays and tuesdays in there season? I thought bear creek was great befoe, but my opinion has drastically changed. What happened to keeping the customer happy? I will gladly comp any staff member at BC for a buffett dinner as long as they spend at least 2000.00 dollars in the casino. What a deal!!!!!!! Ber Creek has lost myself and my family from eber buying a pass there again (total of 5 every year). And the casino industry loves to run trips, I cannot say I would ever recommend BC. Enjoy the great PR work I will do. By the way Mark, thanks for all your help, I am sorry you were of no help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to your logic, BC should stay open for at least 6 months in order to accomodate your work schedule. Who gives a crap about the unpredicatable winter weather that runs throught the North East region - BC should be able to make quality snow and stay open from November until the end of April. Â Unfortunately, I work a six day a week schedule and can only come up to Bear once a week - those bastards better make sure they stay open until August so I can get my days in too. Â You have Mark and the whole management team that bust their asses in order to put our a quality product for us, and all I ever here is people complaining about what they are doing wrong and what they can suck out of BC for themselves. You already are getting one of the cheaper season passes out there - you make your money back on an unlimited pass after about a dozen trips - but screw that, I want to complain. Â You don't want to come back to Bear Creek because you have been soooo outrageously wronged - moron! Â p.s. AC is filthy and I wouldn't eat a buffet down there if it was free, but thanks for the offer!

mollyskeez Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 "BC sucks" thats just an opinion but why would just this one incident change your opinion "im sorry you were of no help" did you see what BC-Mark did for that other dude who had problems with bear theres not too many other facilitys with someone that would do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JibHonk Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 maybe i should put this in the wishlist but o well. according to all those hard working people maybe bear creek should buy a weater machine and a bubble to cover the entire moutain with...honestly, if you're still blaming bear for the bad start u need to grow up because unless they get a bubble and a weather machine they're never going to control what the temperatures/water level in the pond is. so everyone who is complaining and hates bear just quit posting here and if you feel like ranting how much bear sucks then go to a different forum. most people on here are just happy with riding. so please take your bear creek sucks garbage and get outta this topic.

toast21602 Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 people who buy the season pass there know that they are buying a pass to a ski resort in "southeastern" PA. lets be real. how good of a season can you really expect? it could go either way. and this year it took the shitty path. you are putting your money into mother nature. if she is good, you will get what you want. if not, you get shit on. kinda like putting your money into stocks. if its a good one, you will get what you want. if not, you are screwed. its a gamble you have to take at any mountain.

Â BC has done nothing to keep you as a season pass holder? I guess I can see how the 50 or so million dollars that have been dumped into the resort over the past three years is doing nothing. Also, they keep selling those outrageously priced $400 unlimited season passes (the ones that if you ski about eight times actually pays for itself). You should be ashamed of yourself Bear Creek!

BC-Mark Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Here is our reasoning behind a 65 day guarantee: 1) Our season pass rates are the lowest in PA and, when purchased early, all have between a 5.5 and 7 visit break even point. We feel it is reasonable to be able to visit roughly 1 out of every 10 days. 2) We budget on an 80 day season which seems to be typical in this region. 3) Pass holders take a risk buying a pass early based on speculation about the season. In exchange for a heavily discounted pass price, we believe that a 20% risk, based on a 65 day season as a percentage of a typical 80 day season, is not unreasonable. 4) Based on our research, no other ski area in PA offers a guarantee on passes of any kind and we always want to be a guest service leader. Several areas do offer the ability to purchase a third party insurance policy costing between $10 and $30. We investigated these policies and they are based on dubious calculations hinging on the number of heating degree days in a season. Our conclusion was that the majority of the programs were essentially valueless scams. 5) We really are pure evil as some people believe and our goal is to anger as many people as possible.

Lando Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 I have skied for almost my entire life, mostly on the east coast but I have taken trips to almost everywhere and lived at a bunch for a couple of months. In all my travels I have never seen a orginization that is so dedicated to its customers. At Alta you can't ask the general manager questions, at Stowe AIG doesn't drop 50+ million into overhauling the mountain, at Kicking Horse they don't have customer apreciation days. You get all this at a 500ft vertical mountain in SE PA that has some of the most progressive park features on the east coast and all things considered does a pretty good job of being open as much as is possible. Stop bitching they don't owe you anything, and as far as mother nature is concerned there are no promises. Its a bussiness they have to make money, so realize as much as theortically they may want to stay open or give you free food they still have to make money end of story.
