    Only for me and I think three or four other people. 

     

    I mean for real, I love the character of the old fixed grips, but they need either replacement or a complete overhaul. You can run a place with old lifts for the character (see Smuggs) but it's like owning a classic car. You're going to have to rebuild it eventually and need to take maintenance seriously. 

    Spot on.

    Well this might be a rare season we have a few weeks of nice spring conditions as opposed to cold at the end.  I’ll take the spring skiing 

    100%. Looking forward to raw spring nights with no one there

  3. Did you know that little round top is located near round top mountain in nearby Gettysburg…on the battlefield actually. the confederate army attempted to storm little round top to get the coveted higher ground. It didn’t pan out and the confederate army was pushed back. Had that happened there’s a good chance the south wins the battle, storms Washington and wins the war. Picketts charge happened near little round top on day 3. That effectively ended the battle and was the turning point of the war. Gettysburg is an amazing yet somber place. The country as we know it would perhaps not be had it not been for the events that occurred there. Probably best that I stop now as I can go on and on about the civil war.

    Good to see you, big Al and crew as well. 

    Got a few more left in me before I head out. Some of the bumps out here are officially VW category

    Why the .1% chance of not going?  I almost thought I’d see you at Blue this AM lol

     Because I was debating Elk or Greek peak. Thought about blue too but felt like changing it up a bit

    With this new modern lift ticket situation, do you still need to park and get into that cattle truck? or is their a kiosk at the lift next to the lot you can redeem at?

    No. It was incredible. I just walked into the snow near the quad... No cart needed. I still had to go to guest services so I rode the quad and skied down. They let me up

  7. These lifts are so slow and I'm skiing solo so I feel like I'll be posting a lot today. Just warning you all now. Trade off is literally no one here coupled with spectacular snow conditions.

    @rummy are you around??
