Sno Mountain Skier

Recommended Posts

don't think very many of you guy's posting on this topic have ever even been to sno, let alone been there more than once in the last 2 or 3 years.

 

really? the pocono mtns isn't that big of an area....i bet most people on here have been to montage plenty of times over the years.

Lets go over what we know:

 

- The power was shut off for a period of time, but was also turned back on. Could be an indicator of either money problems, poor management, or both. It being turned back on would seem to indicate that they found enough cash somewhere if they didn't have it before.

 

- They have significant debt, significant portions of which appear to not have been paid on time/potentially in default. However, none of the lenders in question appear to be pushing for payment/action prior to the ski season.

 

- The mountain has held a job fair. If you know you can't open for the season, I'm not sure why you would do this.

 

Given that it is a reasonable assumption to believe that operations at the mountain for the length of a season are profitable, unless they are so broke that they can't afford the power/employee salaries for the period of time before money starts rolling in from operations in late December, that it would be very unlikely that they aren't opening for the season, regardless of what their debt situation is like, as I can't see even their creditors wanting such an outcome. (Since operating for the season would bring in more money for the creditors).

 

Continuing on:

 

- The mountain has made an announcement indicating that they believe they are financially secure/healthy.

- Santa has heard such things firsthand and presumably been given details.

- I have heard such things from someone well-connected to the area as well.

- They now have someone answering the phone again.

 

So we have two possible answers. Everyone involved with the mountain is taking a page from the Madoff playbook, and declaring nothing is wrong until the house of cards collapses, and that they are doing a very good job of keeping the "real" answers from even people deeply involved with the area, or they're not wrong when they say they expect everything to be fine for reasons that haven't been announced yet.

Very, very well said millerm277, I wish I stayed calm and kept my posts as professional as you just did.

 

Sno mountain skier, I think it would be septic shock I would be suffering from. (I'm actually a combat medic for the PA national guard)

 

So how about Pennstate! MBLA's getting close :sex I think we should give Herman cane a pass, at least he was trying to have sex with adult women.

 

You guys don't seem like you care too much about what i've been saying, so I'm giving up. I tried to support Sno.

 

If you want to contact me, you can find me on Facebook, just search David Charles. B&W pic.

 

Screw you guys, i'm going home. (until next time haters)

Do you guys do anything but hate on stuff?

I don't know what it is that makes them do it, or why they do it, but they definitely love to drink their hatorade... This is probably why the site has trouble appealing to a larger base... I trolled the site years before I joined, and sadly, it's always been the same... Neutrality is the key to survival lol

Nahh, I talked shit to you. Are you calling it a porn site because it has the word face in it? or is it because it's an action sports media site? that happens to be under construction. I don't know how you made the connection to a porn site, so I could care less if you go to it.

 

I have nothing against boulder, my point is you guys defended blue needlessly because i said something as stupid as they named it after the color blue.

 

Keep up the hate.
