Poachin and Bombin

**Rideski** · 03-19-2018, 04:52 PM

Anyone know what went down today around 11ish at Basin?
They were tossing bombs, and then I spot a couple people dropping.
As I took this pic someone was apologizing loudly and profusely.
There were like 3 patrol watching from lower gate.
It and the upper gate were closed, I’d have to think the hike around the top was closed too.
Then on the next chair ride like a dozen people followed closely single file out, a rather unusual exit from land of giants.
Not usually the nosey type but different level here.
This was right before they dropped another half dozen charges.

DD's goon squad?

**digitaldeath** · 03-19-2018, 05:57 PM

I’d like to find a resort that does their bombing before or after hours

Very disrespectful for the guests

I love the sound of avie bombs going off.

There's nothing disrespectful about patrol doing what they have to, to keep the public safe.

The weird part or one of them was the last of the dozen to drop after the crowd was already down there took these clean lines that they had to work extra for. I guess if it’s going to be your last lift ride of the season make it count?

I looked at the pics before reading your words and thought, damn those are some clean lines.

Were they tossing bombs or shooting them from the gun emplacement?

**Rideski** · 03-20-2018, 08:13 PM

The gun was snow covered that day, not sure if they have used it this season or not.
There was a bomb at like 9:30am, one at maybe 10:30, and then this whole thing went down. I think the first person might have dropped notch 2 as they tossed a bomb in 1.

The essence of freedom is slaying clean lines, while bombs explode all around.

And two chicks at the same time.

Exactly.

One other thing. Whether I've cheated death in a rice paddy with the VC dropping M-43's on me like a Kansas hailstorm, or after taking some light rounds on a snowy hillside from some punks in red jackets, I just like to smoke a couple cigarettes afterwards. I'm not in a mood to argue with people.

The biggest issue I see with this is Rideski posting pictures sideways.

**Jacques Sheer-Rocko** · 03-21-2018, 07:48 AM

Kinda the same thing?

Buncha peeps went into an active control closure... they were cooperative and talked to the sheriff... that's all the dets I know.

Abasin has been doing quite an excellent job with getting their terrain open quickly and safely

And DD STFU... I heard that after you got arrested for doing this at Copper, you went to Abasin and quickly ended up in hot water with patrol there for being a douche there too.

I'm pretty sure none of the resorts in Minnesota bomb during operating hours so maybe you'd best stay there.
Around here we're glad to hear bombs going off during open hours as patrol tries to get more terrain open.
The last thing we need is patrol doing control work after hours when they're tired from hauling sleds, moving poles, lines, and pads, and chasing poachers. Plus during most of the season there isn't enough light.

Is this a part of your ongoing performance piece here (or are you really this stupid)?
