pics on al's blog show chairs being put onto lenawee! still sounds like a mid december opening. I feel like they are waiting for a little more snow than normal to open pali with access to slalom and west wall because if they opened it now it would see a bunch more traffic than it normally would and from people that have less business than usual riding pali. purely speculation here and it is totally possible there really isn't enough snow and the snow that is there is garbage. Been skiing copper in the meantime so I haven't even been up there to see.
I have accomplished none of those things and I feel fully qualified to post in this thread.Quote:

I ate many bags of Dicks hamburgers growing up and, yes, drank Cokes with them, too.
worst reputation for their jerkwad skiers is Hunter mtn in NY... I doubt the jerkwads of the A-basin complaint eat 1/2 as much Head CheeseQuote:

^^ Super cool dedication. Was happy to call A-Basin my home mtn for 6 seasons. No dick bags for me tho, thnx.
Nice mention of A Bay in this article about them dropping out of Epic Pass madness…
Edit: can’t link cause I don’t subscribe any longer but I think you get a free article a week or something… google NY Times Take Back the Mountains.
Can’t wait for the Gullies and Upper East Wall to fill in.

I’m having grammar issues with the op thread title.
A-Bay skiers should.
Skiers at The Basin can, if they want. Not mandatory.

Hiking the Upper East Wall is always fun:

This is unfortunately true. As a general rule the front rangers screw up every hill in Summit County every weekend, have no idea how to drive in the snow or the mountains. But they spend money, so the only thing left to do is smile while thinking you have no idea what a douche bag you are, thank you come again..... :)Quote:
