Dear Mr Media 310.
I believe that a number of our august members have pointed out that your postings from Crested Butte are somewhat lacking in savior faire, elan, style or grammar.

Evidently you are enough of a clod to continue your attempts at image or brand sculpting, clawing away at some innocent keyboard.

Alas, now you pollute the PNW with similar misspellings (Tachoma?) and disinformation (arriving at the sleepy resort town of Crystal Mountain?).

I'm sure that JK and Tiana will regret associating themselves with your puerile and clumsy media bludgeonings. The bits carrying your your cloddish missives over the internet cringe with embarassment. The public at large is embarassed at your ongoing self immolation.

For the sake of decency and self respect, please find another occupation.

May I suggest you delete this thread before it advertises what an incredibly bad marketeer you are.

First, your flaccid concern for presentation and complete ignorance of the location tarnish your clients image. Your client isn't careless, I guarantee it. And neither is your viewership. You might try just a wee bit to show both of them that you care.

Crystal isn't a town by any means. It's a base lodge lot with 3 small hotels and a chapel. Alta is a town. Silverton is a town. Crystal is a decorated parking lot.

Second, you have much to learn in managing the public. Your responses continue to be thudlike, defensive, ham fisted and devoid of any levity, angle or style. Where's the eyebrows?

Third, the facts are: there's no new snow, rain is in the forecast and this event is more likely to be a scrapefest of the lowest order. That said, maybe they did choose correctly in selecting your representation.

Thats a fact, jack... as much as it pains me to say it.

Buster Highmen,

Client? I own and operate the Mountain Weekly News so not sure what your talking about. I do this because I want to and love doing so.. Crystal is much more then a parking lot in my eyes..

The following hotels are at Crystal
Quicksilver
Alpine Inn
Village Inn
Crystal Chalets
Crystal Cabin
There are locals that live in houses just past the parking lots..

The following restaurants are at Crystal
Summit House
Snorting Elk
Alpine Inn Restaurant
Bullwheel
Glacier Express
Capmbell Basin Lodge
etc....

I will be sure to call it parking lot in my next story. This is where we will be staying from Feb 5th - 9th. As for the weather were stoked on whatever we get, it rained last year and we had a blast. Keep in mind everyone that is in the comp really loves snowboarding, I know hard concept to grasp..

"Friday, with a snow level of 5500 ft. We are in luck because it will turn cooler at the end of this storm on Friday night and Saturday morning, when the cold front passes. Snow level Saturday morning will be 2500 ft with 1-4" new - that will freshen it up -- possibly more upper slopes."

So why the hate, oh yeah its cool on TGR to slam all my post.. I get it.. NEWS FLASH. I Aint going anywhere.

it's nothing personal man but everything you post on here wreaks of self-serving douchebaggery. do you even know anyone that posts here? it's a fucking community, i ride with people that post here on a daily (yes, i mean DAILY in the truest sense of the word, in case you're wondering) basis, unfortunately before you ever had the chance to become a part of that you pretty much dug your own grave.

Right. You do this for the love? Uh-huh. Just like your website solicits for clients and money. mtnweakly?

The following hotels are at Crystal
Quicksilver
Alpine Inn
Village Inn
Crystal Chalets
Crystal Cabin
There are locals that live in houses just past the parking lots..

The first 3 are hotels. The remainder are houses; mostly employee housing and the handful of Gold Hills houses.

The following restaurants are at Crystal
Summit House
Snorting Elk
Alpine Inn Restaurant
Bullwheel
Glacier Express
Capmbell Basin Lodge
etc....

The Snorting Elk/Alpine Inn is the only restaurant. Calling the cafeterias restaurants is really stretching it.

I will be sure to call it parking lot in my next story. This is where we will be staying from Feb 5th - 9th. As for the weather were stoked on whatever we get, it rained last year and we had a blast.

Look, I'm really trying to help.

You look like an idiot trying to tell the locals how and what it is. You do it in CB and now you're doing it @ Crystal.

You look like an idiot in your CB vids and you sideslip a lot of the decent stuff there.

I thought I was trying to help out the disadvantaged.
My bad. Carry on.

Ok, the event might be cool, but Crystal is NOT a town. And there is rain in the forecast. Don't dig yourself too big of a hole.
