Today, I got off the West Summit exit on I-90 at 8:15 a.m. and drove up the Alpental access road. Slowly.
It took a little while to get to the main Alpental lot. In the absence of any parking personnel or signs, I proceeded to drive up to lot 4, which, per the Summit's claim, is reserved for seasons pass holders only.
It was full on guerilla combat performance parking with the road up to lot 4 marginally navigable each way. Safety was absent. By the time I got to lot 4. it was 8:45 There was no parking available nor parking personnel directing anything. It took another 45 minutes to get back to the I-90 West Summit exit.
Could you please request of the fine, fine Boyne and Summit-At-Snoqualmie Management to allocate some resources to manage parking? Perhaps request that someone with some initiative put out signs when the lots are full? Maybe direct traffic? Hand out trinkets? Actually enforce the representation of lot 4 reserved for seasons pass holders?
I know it's too much to request that Boyne and your management not oversell the public resource to which the Summit has a lease. But I thought I'd try to at least fire an appropriate flare o-er your collective bows.

I saw him a few runs later taking his snowboard off and walking over to the singles line, though he didn’t really seem a beginner.
Weird guy. Whatever.
Sure, but what made this grievous is that he was skipping the long normal line in favor of the short singles line, and THEN riding alone.Quote:

To the west of the pay lot there's a little that's free and only for the Sports Hub and the taco place adjacent to the lot. Of course the pickup could have been patronizing one of the other businesses on the block but none of them were likely to appeal to a extended cab pickup driver. Dear pu driver--if I have unfairly stereotyped you I sincerely apologize, but get your goddamn truck out of the middle of the street.Quote:

I don't want to keep people behind waiting, but I don't want to barge in on a chair where I'm not wanted. I wish there was some objective standard so that I don't have to fret over this on those half busy days. Sounds like a problem for AI, after the zipper merge is solved.Quote:

I think a lot of people are afraid of their own thoughts, or just bored by them, and need to talk. Ff someone insists on riding with me at least don't be jumping on at the last second and making me scoot over.Quote:

Speaking of Boyne parking lots and longer vehicles, the terraced parking at Barker (oldest Sunday River base area) clearly wasn't designed with modern pickups and vans in mind. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't actually designed or engineered at all, but that's beside the point.
To fit longer vehicles (pickups, some vans, etc) on most of the terraces, they need to be parked at an angle. If everyone does this, it results in minimal loss of spaces with the benefit of everyone being able to get out of their space (or into an empty space) without issue.
Most of the regulars seem to be aware of this and will park at an angle when starting a row, although a lot of them driving smaller vehicles tend to vastly underestimate the turning radius of an American battleship-turned-pickup.
But could Boyne be bothered to put up even a few signs? Nah. So you get people parking directly perpendicular, leaving those driving pickups and vans with the choice between matching the angle and potentially being stuck if the spaces across the terraced are occupied by anything larger than a Golf or creating a triangular void and parking in a way that gives them a fighting chance of leaving when they want to.

No kidding. I'm happy to just get someone to check me out with a weeks worth of groceries. I don't mind if I have to bag.Quote:

Super dark tinted windows annoy me. I honestly believe that eye contact really helps to avoid accidents, especially for pedestrians. If I were a cop, I would be way more inclined to pull anyone over with tinted windows.
People in extremely sunny, warm climes would like to have a word with you. :DQuote:

Isn't that a horrifying insight into the policing we've saddled ourselves with. (I'd laugh, but it sure isn't funny.)Quote:
