Why so many are sucking Summit's dick in this thread is beyond me.

By his own words from the original post: "could the rumors of pat downs be true?"

He knew it was coming and chose to act like a dick. :fuckyou:

Sorry, but gotta agree with this guy here.

We love drama, yes we do... my lord. :rolleyes::nonono2:

In a nutshell. ^^

I will say this for summit, at least he generally doesn't delete his threads, even ones that make him look like an complete ass, unlike some people around here. i respect that.

getting thrown out again would have made it funnier.

Sounds like they were patting down for access to the lifts. The USFS doesn't own the lifts. Arguing about the permit/lease is pointless. If they want to pat you down to keep drunks out, more power to them. It doesn't sound like it was effective, and it usually isn't.

Summit, you obviously knew they were going to pat you down. Rumors, guys in yellow patting people down.... Give me break :rolleyes: And as soon as you flipped them attitude you were just asking to get your pass pulled. Don't fuck with people who are in the service industry.

Probably the most effective way to get your point across would be to not spend your money at Keystone.

Dont believe this for a minute...they can't "invent" a law to suspend your license for a particular event...that would have to be a state wide law governing SUI (skiing under the influence). they can arrest you for something like public drunkenness or public intoxication, disturbing the peace, etc...but certainly can't do ANYTHING to your driving privileges.

I have an employee that got prosecuted for a DUI here in Summit for skateboarding drunk.

I don't see how that would be different than skiing, other than the skiing obviously wasn't on a public road way.

I still find this hard to believe...you are NOT OPERATING A MOTOR VEHICLE....DUI is for vehicles...not skateboards...again this would have to be a local or state law...I find it hard to believe that if this employee truly did get a ticket for DUI on a sakteboard that any good lawyer couldve gotten it thrown right out..I tried searching for CO laws related to Skateboarding drunk and came up empty...it was probably an overzealous cop pushing a limit....probably got thrown right out.

People get prosecuted for DUI on all sorts of non-motor vehicles all the time, and yes a high quality lawyer would probably be able to successfully challenge that particularly at trial. Can you imagine being on a jury in that trial?

Motor vehicle codes most emphatically don't have jack shit to do with skiing, thank jeebus.

I wasn't arguing the point about the searches, I think it is common sense that the lease/permit thing has nothing to do with that. After looking at it some more, I'm inclined to believe MarkoInTheBoat that most have permits anyways, no lease at all. There are definitely some leases though, but not necessarily with the FS. Silverton and BLM I think is one.

I actually saw the posted letter about the ski areas on USFS land in NM when I was at the ski hill yesterday, and it clearly states that the ski areas only control the land and admission to same from November 11th through the end of their season. After that, you are welcome to hike/walk/etc. on the FS lands in their boundaries.
