Anyone know if Alpine midweek passes are good tomorrow? They took all the pass info off their website.

[FlakeShredder]

Hahah kirkwood is saying everything is scheduled for tomorrow aka lets try and trick everyone to come here. Yeah .. reality check ... thats not happening.

The 6 day pass was good on Saturdays starting a week or two ago. Not sure about the midweek only though.

edit was referring to alpine

[ja_surf]

be careful, my buddy took a ride this week on one of the lower sections, not porky's in an area that you would not think would slide

[Dhelihiker]

What all opened today at Kirkwood?

In line at Gun Barrel by 8:30... rode gunb until 11:30ish and then we hiked up to sky and as we're passing dipper we notice the Mott chair was running. Get word from patrol they are opening it soon and we sit and wait by Gate 6. 25 minutes later it opens and I session it for about 2 hours with barely any people. Then headed over to fb for a couple laps (no where near as good as Mott was).

Holy Jeebus!!!!! Today was retarded! ...and not just ride-a-short-bus retarded, but full-blown shit-in-your-hands-and-rub-it-in-your-face retarded.

The Chinese downhill on the face was fucking hilarious. They roped off the top because a cat had malfunctioned and they didn;t want gapers running into it. Powdork came up with a genius plan that resulted in us getting top to bottom face shots at *****CENSORED**********

Skied mainly with Bullhorn + Machlooney today. Pow and faceshots. Too many blinding faceshots resulting in numerous close call Sonny Bonoesque tree incidents. Stupid face shots are supposed to stop and start every turn, not be a constant vision-impairing pissing-me-off I-can't-see-shit-for 10 turns in the trees bullshit.

The Cougar delivered bigtime today. Bell to bell radness. Mott was fucking awesome- it was like said Cougar brought her 20yo college daughter to have a threesome with me.

Left SF at noon, dry roads all the way to Kirkwood until i made the left into the valley. Looking at Chair 10 as we speak. It's like the moon up here. Deserted with a shit ton of snow. Lightly snowing, but a tad windy.

Jesus dude. Next thing you know you'll be snowboarding.

Word is that only 6 popped today. No 10 and no backside. This is 2nd-hand info from spc though.

Had the same question and found the info on the google cached version:

Midweek + Sunday Adult (19-69)
Valid at Alpine Meadows only.
Blackout Dates: Dec 26, 2010 - Jan 2, 2011; Jan 15 - 16 2011; Feb 19 - 20, 2011.
BONUS! The 2010/2011 Midweek + Sunday Season Pass is valid on Saturdays through 12/25/10; and on Saturdays starting 3/19/11 through the remainder of the season.

Cached version is from 3/18/11, looks like they took it down right before the Saturdays become available. Why does Alpine treat passholders this way?

Hey fuck that, that's what the page said when I paid for my pass. Just printed it.


edit: they may have just taken that down because it's late in the season and all they're selling now is spring passes which are good 7 days. It's kind of hard to believe they'd completely renig on that.

[frorider]

OH MY GOD!
how did we not see each other?

talked to gimpy on the mott traverse, but only saw you on comet chair. looked like you had groomer slaying in mind. punani seemed to be hitting the same lines we were. fortunately there was enough to share.

damn fine day at the cougar.

I'm serious. I felt like I was Azusa Ayano or Maria Ozawa getting an all-day facial bukkake from Heavenry Mountain Resort

[powdork]

problem with heathenry is that there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to jump off.

Kfactor over the falls


random dude, but prolly a mag given how few people were there, and how many have chimed in here to say they were


and Kfactor again


iscrewed up my settings on my camera which is why i opted for the B&W stuff.

[~mikey b]

Hmmmm .... with all this snowfall I wonder if the low elevation lesser skied resorts that actually still have some steep fun features left (and not totally buried) may be a good call for the weekend. You really got me thinking 'bout a change in plans mike.

you can ALWAYS have fun here - I'm working Sat and skiing w/ Owen Sun - I have a free voucher for you

~mike

[QuikR12]

Anyone know if Alpine will fuckin be open tomorrrow?


or who'll even own them tomorrow?



I dunno boss, I assume if the turn a lift on a weekend, they want weekend $?

Are those rocks off Gate 6? Mott was money today...... holy crap......!!

[G]

It's too bad that Mott was so sucky today, it was just too deep to go skiing in. But I kept trying. All damn day.

How did I not recognize any of you in there today?

[LongShortLong]

Hmmmm .... I wonder if the low elevation lesser skied resorts may be a good call for the weekend.

I had more fun last Sat at BV than today at KW. There were fewer ppl, and even fewer on Sunday

Sure. Both nothing is groomed off 6 according to the report, so it must kind of blow.

I blowed all right. Cold smoke and refills.

Hahah kirkwood is saying everything is scheduled for tomorrow aka lets try and trick everyone to come here. Yeah .. reality check ... thats not happening.

QFT, please stay home everyone!
