    Ha. My son must of got a hold of the phone an posted up some stoke.

    BTW, KW announced it opens This Friday (edit, as this is a repeat...)

    edit: and their snow phone is in full spin mode, claiming they are opening "a full week ahead of schedule." Well, uh, no, 5 days does not equal a full week. Why do you guys do this?

    Anyway, looks like it could be a fun few days right after opening. Go crush that snow down for those of us who need to wait until Turkey Day. Hopefully they don't open 4. Could be some fun touring back that way, once the pow is gone inbounds.

    Only chair 5 on Friday. I suspect they are limited by staffing until at least TG weekend.

    ^^^Ha. So funnez. Chair 5? Stoke Meter at 2!!! Must mean they need more snow.

    Back in the day, KW would open as soon as there was snow, and the managers would be out on the hill, working, bumping even, making sure their clientele were stoked. Now, they all hang out in the (central, as in flat lands) valley and wait for their minimum wage employees to show up and do the work. So Vail.

    And from the website...
    We also ask guests to please help us preserve early season snow conditions by not hiking other areas of the mountain at this time. .
    Um, that is what we are doing when we track it out. If you don't ski the snow, it will blow away in the wind. How many times have we seen the east wind rape the top of the hill. Remember 2011? They should be paying people to skin and ski 10 right now.

    Very, very sad news...my friend was skiing with the girl who crashed @ Alpine and went into a coma, and she passed away in the hospital yesterday. She suffered a partially separated brain stem as well as broken facial bones and a fractured vertebrae in her back. I guess her brain was swelling so badly that they had to schedule sedation...

    Remember, early season can be super dangerous! If you are going out, be careful, have fun, and live each moment to the fullest!

    Oh man, that is terrible, terrible news Condolences to friends, family and any involved.

    Be careful out there, and to back up Schralps comments earlier, be careful an don't let the powder fever get you. I made some not so smart moves the other day (see powdorks page), but also backed away from things that just did not feel right. Play safe, especially as the lifts begin to spin through this next round of snow.

    Wow, unbelievable. We must have just gotten off the mtn when that happened. So crazy to think things could go that wrong - the day seemed so fun, chill and low key (and deep). Condolences to family and friends.

    Wow - just saw the thread update. Deep condolences to all her loved ones and friends.

    Serious injury, but hopefully she did not feel pain when she went.
