    I don't know about the timetable for the new lift, but I do know that 9/30/04 (tomorrow) is the last day to buy one of those new Silver Cards, that gets you $20 off a full day lift ticket - so if you're interested, hop on to alta.com and do it now!!!

    Fuck that. there's no patrollers because nobody wants to work there. The pay has little to do with it.

    Never before have I seen a ski patrol have to constantly run help wanted ads in the local newspaper all winter long.

    What is the status of the construction of the new Collins Lift? Will it

    Yeah, I figured they probably wouldn't fuck up that badly, but it was fun to think about. However, if things were going to hell, they wouldn't spill the beans until right before opening cause they want to get as many season passes sold as possible.

    Thumbs up

    You have a point, but I've learned (the hard way) to take rumors with a grain of salt. Especially in Alta.
