Got a few runs in on Pali, it was good, but got gang banged pretty hard right off the bat. Team Summit was 50% of the overflowing maze by my third lap.Quote:

Was pleasantly surprised being able to rock up to current creek TH after 9am on a holiday week and easily get parking for 4 cars in the non-overflow. Skiing was damn good. Snowed from arrival til our last lap around 2:30.
First couple of laps took 25 minutes on the silver queen at CB. That's about as long as I've ever seen it. Still, if everyone was filling the chairs the wait would have been half, which would be normal for a Christmas break powder day.

The useless lifties working Pali won’t bump the chair, leaving it to slam into you instead. You sure can’t expect them to keep the line organized.

After lunch the guy bumping the chairs on Pali was calling front row. The best I saw was a guy with his pass in a cargo pocket lifting his leg up trying to get it to scan.

They didn’t really install the scanner gates uniformly. BME is pants pocket height. Lenawee is shoulder height. Pali is in between.

This is why I insisted on a sleeve pass pocket for my next resort jacket, don't have time for that aggravation!
I’ve just been skiing with my wife’s pass up high in my jacket and my pass in my pants pocket. It scans one of em. Also a pretty good indication that they don’t give a fuck about who is using the pass.Quote:

Been nursing an injury this early season. Ready for some lift action next week...hopefully this horseshit I’m reading above will be over.
Clancy says it's still thin, but getting better:

Loveland was straight up busy today. Chet’s maze was actually borderline uncomfortably crowded. I’m probably good until they get another lift open and people can spread out a bit more.

I was thinking of taking my 9 year old up to Loveland for our first day but given these crowding reports, I’ll wait.
Sounds like Winter Park’s reservations are full for the rest of the season on weekends. What a shitshow.

toy haulers parked in places I have never seen before. Good job by CDOT in plowing every possible place by Wednesday to avoid total chaos.
I am going to have to buy the avie forecaster another bottle of crown to keep the forecast at considerable.
I think Tuesday the Pagosa lineup might of been to the hairpin.
Indeed. Was curious where you were finding good coverage.Quote:

Pattern changes 3 weeks out per Joel [emoji31]
I drove past that shit show on my way home on Tuesday. I have never seen Wolf Creek like that, ever. People were walking through the snowshed on the East side 1.25 miles to get to the resort. I don't care how much snow fell that could hardly be worth the experience.Quote:

Sorry your pandemic vacation isn't going to plan, and please pull that mask over your nose thank you very much.
Bama needs to fuck off soon.
