theprogram4 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 Got to blue at 735, Jeff, toast, and jfDan in the house. Walked to six pack and told it was closed for a broken wheel. Mai. Street chair was running but blue didn't rope off runs down to six pack smh. No shuttle to top either. Loaded skis and people in mbikeskis truck and my car. Drive to top. Got 2 runs in before six pack started up again. Soon six pack broke down. Quad lines were mostly not bad but at times got past the scanners. Sidewinder opened today. Very thin edge to edge cover, but all good, just glad it's open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toast21602 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 Blue was pretty good this morning except for the lift delay. Other than that, conditions were great. Sidewinder opened, Chute opened, Xing Opened. New trails, firm snow. Goos stuff. And got the 40th anniversary chair on the 6er. Happy Holidays to everybody! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomicSkier Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 Mbike is such a nice guy that he gave us a ride up in his truck to the top so we could ski while they dicked around with the 6er. We were at least a run up on people. Towards the end of our session, the quad have a good 10 minute outage where it would move an inch or two then jerk to a stop. Sidewinder was the ROTD. I would've picked Challenge but we only got one run on it before BMR closed it. Sidewinder was fun as hell. I can't wait for it to go full width.

Much more stable than my Elans. I dont know how much of this is psychological and physical, but I really like the RTMs I told you it would be like that. It's surely some of both, but as the physical improves the psychological, your skiing will improve and help the physical even more. Did you end up pulling the trigger on the 81s? Did you try anything wider? I don't think you'll see much improvement with a wider ski today, but come March with the deep sugar and the piles would probably welcome them.

Anyone know if the Vista lift is broken? It wasn't running Tuesday and it seems strange that they wouldn't have it running on a weekend day. It's nice for stone cold beginners to be able to lap Easy Out to Vista, and with no top to bottom park I'm sure some of the jibhonks love to use it to lap Come Around Edited December 24, 2017 by enjoralas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
