    Zee knows what he's talkin about. Screw this lift/resort idea. Ya gotta start a cat-op. From what I hear it's pretty easy to get tenures in B.C., we could set something up like the Montana Snowcat Club or whatever the place was that they skiied at for the feature in PowderMag last year. I'll chip in some dough, who wants to apply for the tenure, find a used SnowCat and move to Canadia with me?

    My landlord has 3 cats parked in our backyard. He "collects" them; calls them his kitties. Rich bastard.

    I'm down to start a snow cat op. Let me go tie my unicorn to the hitching post and grab me magical pot o' gold.

    I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but if you aren't, I wanna get in on the ground floor, whenever the option becomes available. I just read something about Baldface, and how they started their operation with 50 grand and some outside investors, I think we could pull that off. Just tell me when and where, and I'll be there.

    Edit: PM me about it if you're at all serious.

    cause phish spurned your amorous advances at the mini and you're now finding all his dumbest threads and bumping them?

    What sorry fate then awaits poor Max? You'll be busy a while trying to find his dumbest thread, exactly how will you decide?

    Yeah it was really great to see everyone. Sorry but no skiing till I either shoot a turkey or the season ends. Just the way it goes.

    Just bump them all. I'll get a chuckle out of it.

    This is kinda funny though. I thought this was new until I looked at the dates. And I thought that May 3 storm picture was actually today... Damn space-time continuum.

    my own resort has been my dream for so many years, something the size of kt22, sick steep terrain with a double chair, sweet mountainbiking in the summer. ladies and gents, lets get it done so i have a chill place to be a ski bum for a few years

    Doesn't MRG have something like this, where they have shareholders who bought the resort and keep it running? We could sell shares and every mag could own a small slice. Just need to find some land and an old tractor that can covert to a tow rope for the short-term.

    I know there are mags out there with real estate experience and financial backing connections.

    500 Mags could raise $2M with a $4000 investment....that's like 3 Squaw passes.

    There are definetly alot of zones here in Argentina that are very doable for this. And the Andes have the terrain we are looking for, now all we need is some deep pockets, who's got em?

    the issue with the andes is that it would be a fairly short season, and getting most of our asses all the way down there is a real kick in the nutz. Cat operation in Canada would get my money.
