edit: Intrasworst has been very manipulative in dealing with the admittedly overpowered town government. Did they talk in the master plan about the Gondie that was too be built into town (by Denos)? This was the carrot IW used to get there foot in the door.Last edited by Foggy_Goggles; 10-21-2004 at 01:51 PM.

I hope all goes well, and not too much changes for this year, cause WP/MJ is where I'm going to be from Jan on this season.
Thanks for the info snow2knight. I was wondering if that was you in the first post.
Hopefully we can make a few runs together again this season. Mine won't start until January, but most or all of it will be spent at WP/MJ and Copper.yeah Jibj, the old name was corny the new one is just dumb but I'm not that creative. Hope we can do some skiing this winter, I'm also hoping to find some folks to explore powder stashes to ski with my sleds.... Rollins Pass.

as for the bumping stuff, that ended a long time ago! very little of that desired riding at the 'bird and same for my new hills in WA- until mother nature ran dry in april last year and international @ alpental became a big bad ass version of needles eye, but 3 times longer. what a wake up call- defintely hadn't bashed between a bunch of volkswagens in a long time, let alone on a pair of B3's.
Oh, and Loeffler is one of the guys I've met up with in Las Lenas the past few years. I also lived with Jacobson when I was in vail '97-'99Last edited by Squirrel99; 10-21-2004 at 05:54 PM.

Foggy, did you work for MP at The Pub?
Railbender's being split groomed pretty regularly-- the lower section, anyway. I've noticed that before they groom it that first time, RB has the best bumps on the mountain (except for maybe Gandy Dancer, but Gandy's a hell of a lot flatter).
Thankfully, Intrawest seemed to listen to the complaints about grooming the bumps and is keeping it to only Outhouse and Railbender. Yeah, that REALLY sucks, but at least they decided that grooming Frenchman was a really piss piss poor move. Outhouse never seemed to get good bumps on it anyway, and gapers seem to have just as much trouble on the split groom since they only scrape it once every week or two and it forms nasty huge icy irregular bumps.
Sucks to see that the Winter Park that converted me from a vacation skier to ski bum is now being handled by Intrawest... I hate the idea of a lift at Parsenn and Backside Parsenn. The lift lines on Timberline are horrible on weekends and holidays but pretty much nonexistent the other 75% of the time. What's up with all the gapers wanting to brag about "skiing the back bowls, brah?"
I hear they're putting Mushroom Patch, Topher's, and Stone Grove on the trail map....
