Neither is OTR, The Saddle, Castle Rock, Primer, Dave's Ditch, Tunnel Face, or Supernova. Maybe they ran out of bamboo and rope?
Oh well.

Neither is chicken alley trees. I've "heard" those trees are skiing pretty well, however. :)Quote:

Sunday was tits. Ridge was soft both north and south and 1 skied great for near spring weather.
the first runs I did off 1, Ptarmigan, 4 were hard crust and it was sleeting. I got frustrated and left. where was the snow good?Quote:

Word around the lodge is that they are actively voiding 4packs sold on Craigs List. Meaning if you buy one from a listing on CL, they won’t honor it. Matching email addresses. Don’t know if this is new or not, but quite a few pissed spring breakers.
How would they know this? Sounds like false information.Quote:

Yeah, anyone using Craigslist has an anonymous email address. Sounds like a fake rumor.
Da fuck. I find this hard to believe. Those are sold as transferable passes. I can't see how they could legally do such.Quote:

Today was siiiiiick...
Lower mountain was terrible, never felt such ice and crust in the North Chutes before. The Ridge was skiing incredible though. Fell in love with the WrensQuote:

And yes, the chutes were a bit bullet proof under the new snow.
Everything BUT North Chutes was soooo good. We lucked out and had first tracks across the hill for the first three hours and still were skiing untracked on field of dreams to tickler off the cat at 2:00pm.Quote:

A little later my wife and I went to 6...they closed that after a couple runs. Ptarmigan closed a little later. 4 ran for awhile longer then closed.
All that was left was 2 and they even had to run that slow because of the gusts down low. Crazy freaking front that blew through.
Loveland season pass details are out for next year:
New things:
- HSQ on Lift 1 confirmed.
- Price down $20
- Full passes get Powder Alliance benefits (3 free midweek days or 3 50% off weekends at a bunch of places)
- New bonus days at Red Lodge Mountain, Cooper, and Homewood. Plus all the bonus days that were on there last year.
- No more bonus days at Crested Butte.
HSQ to replace chair 1. What a waste of cash that is. The maintenance costs will be huge even with having to have bailing twined and duct tape 1. There's almost never a line at 1. Moron decision right there. What are they thinking? It's a nice marketing scheme though.Quote:

Pass prices are down. They were $429 for a new pass last year. https://web.archive.org/web/20170310...season-passes/Quote:

Last year we paid $379 for renewals early sale. Prices go up usually about $20 after that.Quote:
