I don't know exactly why, but I do know and have seen the bear enclosure beneath the lift.

I believe there's a natural cave there that Boo the Grizzly bear prefers and the Canadians set up the area to give it free reign of the place.

I thought I read that there were people on the box that fell off, aboot a meter off the ground; nobody was injured.
But people from the other boxes had to be dropped via line or saved by helicopter, that I thought was odd. 
Thinking about it now, maybe it was the people in the boxes over the bear enclosure that they pulled using the helicopter?

appreciate you saying "aboot"

switching up my trip plans a bit - I found a condo 5 minutes from Silver Mountain for dirt cheap - skipping Brundage/Tamarack probably since that's pretty far out of the way...I'll do 49 degrees north, Lookout Pass, Silver (probably 2 days), and probably 2 days in Montana.

Condo sleeps 6 if anyone wants to hang out

Hell yeah! The North Face Glades at Silver are top notch. Enjoy! 

What are the dates??? 🤔

@Johnny Law

Is this yours?  or is that one in Washington, or Oregon?

I fly in late 3/25  and have the condo booked through 3/30.  I'll probably stay near Spokane after that on 3/30 and 3/31 and hit 49 Degrees North

Sadly no,  mine is somewhere in the exit of Bear Pits at Crystal but I bet someone went and got that one lickedy split even if it's not theirs.

Season pass holder party moved to the 22nd in case anyone didn’t see that. Just praying nights next week are a go. Something telling me that may not happen though.

I think it will happen with the sale they’re doing next week. 

[RidgeRacer]

Oh wow. I just looked and they’re selling night passes every day until the 30th. Not sure if that means much but a good sign indeed.

Yeah the 30th seems like a logical closing date. They have a lot more coverage than a lot of times mid March. 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

They need to bring this commercial back.

Montage is open all week until 7.  I should still have a free ticket if anyone is going. Work is crazy this week so I won't make it 

[RidgeRacer]

Camelback is open 9 to 5 tomorrow. Assuming that’ll be their hours this week

[JFskiDan]

 

yep.

Did anyone go to Spartan race? I went to spectate my sister and her boyfriend, and rode the 4 pack down hill. That was a unique experience.

I don’t know about everybody else but I’m really starting to get excited for ski season.  To the point where somebody should start a new thread for 25-26…for some it’s already Spooky season and after spooky season straight to WROD

I went on a cruise with my sister and her fiance a few weeks ago. I don't consider myself a third wheel because I do my own thing and I'm fine letting them alone to have their sexy time, and when they fight my sister has someone to go to dinner with.

WOW they fight. Not good. Let me know if your sister and fiancée have any other issues
