Ahh so without seeing the lease we have no clue what is or isn’t allowed. I just figured it was the off season. Do leases typically go into summer for resorts?Quote:

No, usually they have to take down all the lifts every spring when the lease runs out.Quote:

I call bullshit on the whole lease and banning people from accessing the resort
I'd fight it in court all day if I ever got in real trouble
it's more of a safety thing, where twenty something years ago they didn't care but now there is more stupid people in the world and they do stupid things so it's a liablity so they close the place off
I've been up at breck in closed areas summer and winter and never really had any issues, low profile is the way to go
but once when I was in telluride for the summer they had most of the mountain closed down, I think it was a security thing after the two elks fire, and they were doing lots of work up there, I was riding my bike around having a grand old time, having gone past a couple barricades and closed signs, up on the mtn this secuirty office tracked me down and all hell broke loose, he touched me and my bike, lucky I was stoned to the bone and my acting backround worked out pretty good, I played stupid saying I came in from way over there and didn't see any signs, even though I'd been up there all week riding, twenty mins later after calling the sherriff the supervisers and all this bullshit, they let me go if I rode down certain trails, and I agreed not to come back up, then I noted a few things for him as I rode away making him pissed and confused since I let I that I knew exactly what I was doing up there. lucky I was faster than a pick up
And take out all the moguls and store them in Denver.Quote:

Yeah... A Basin was logging the Beavers last summer and slinging the logs out via helicopter. I imagine their lease is pretty clear that they can close that zone to public access so that some Jerry out for a hike doesn't end up in a woodchipper.Quote:

gov't thinks they can give it away to some big corporation so they can make money
well that's not too american is it?
just like the time the ranger stopped me for being on a closed trail who has the right to close trails?
if we keep closing land to honest to god americans like me everything would start looking like boulder
my favorte line: "I'm from littleton I just didn't know"
works all the time
You're cute.Quote:

don't worry because it's not going to rain for the next six weeks and then it will rain every day of july and august
We haven't had a heat wave yet.
Scientifically, "peak runnoff" is a squirrely thing. Right now some rivers are running above normal and some are not. In a generally cool and wet time of year up here in the mountains, it has been generally hot and dry.
Fred, if you are moving, it surprises me that you'd be going to Crested Butte. If you are gonna get the fuck outta Dodge, get the fuck! outta! Dodge. Move to where the livin' is cheap, ride your bike and figure it out.
IDK about runoff numbers, but according to an Ark River raft guy I talked to, all the reservoirs are at or above 100% of average, so he's expecting flows on the Ark to be pretty consistent this year as the water authorities vary release to provide a steady supply.Quote:

The Gore and Eagle don't seem very large. A longtime local told me and have seen to be pretty accurate is that when Riva run melts off, that is your Gore peak.
I wouldn't believe anything you read on the internetQuote:

If and when I bail, been bailing for twenty years now, I am going somewhere cheap and south/west
Then again if I get some chick from highlands ranch pregnant then I'm in real trouble
Actually hoping to knock this girl from aspen up so we can live in her dad's condo together happily ever after

Unrelated to the water discussion but had myself a time up on James peak today. Got there too late for anything but the mellow stuff but a few of the star’s are still in

Did you go up from St Mary’s? How’s coverage? Did you get a look down at Loch Lomond? How low is the snow line down there now?Quote:

Skied off the summit and embarrassingly got ahead of myself and buried myself into some ice chunks and lost a lot of skin on one arm. Got up and enjoyed great corn the rest of the way downQuote:
