    corporate decided to drug test him and he was fired for the marijuanas
    Corporate tune shops suck. Our entire shop quit when the big shakedown occured for beers in the trash can. That said, never let go of the ski/bridge when it is in the grinder and always have the foot pedal for the feed wheel with in close reach.

    Not sure I'd trust a ski tech that could pass a piss test.

    Because I hear things, "on the down low" that turn into reality. I honestly believe that, intentional or not, Wanker Park leaks negative information through their employees that gets out to the public. By the time that an official announcement is made, everyone already knows no it is no big deal.

    So, they need to get a crane to Sunspot to finish installing the lift. This is scheduled for December 14th. The current plan is to keep the summer road open. As those know that ride bikes there, this road goes up Turnpike, past Snoasis, though Alice in Wonderland, past the bottom on the Hi Lo etc.

    Early season until the lift is in will reality see limited intermediate terrain. The plan is to open as much as possible on the Jane. Apparently the new snowmaking system is working great but I have not idea what they installed on the Jane. Anyways, not good, not bad just different.

    They are cutting it really close to Christmas. Seems like a snowy cold week could set them back with not enough time to recover before tourists start arriving.

    It would be a real stand up move if you posted the extras up in the "free gear" thread. A lot of people around here have obviously been shafted and will need them.

    I got a 1:1 lanyard to pass ratio. I’ll be happy to pass the lanyard to another mag as I’ll just put the pass on the same one as my epic pass.

    I don't think the Ikon Pass will work with the Epic lanyard tho. Prob different RFIDs and all.

    Nope, that is why I have this stuff called rope to use instead
    Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.
