Wildside Wednesday was a shit show when the chair shat the bed with the first full load. Same issue that closed it early on Sunday. Guess we'll try again tomorrow

Pretty legit night sesh. Didn't make it to e gate opener today but can imagine it was top notch. Wind was moving things around on the lower mountain pretty good, fall Line under the lift on Debbie's was skiing fantastic. Hero snow everywhere had a great time with Lindahl 2.0 and Sorry BRO. 15k of night skiing on windbuff buffet
Really... GLad I moved the mount on my skis night and day difference.
So glad nights are back at alpy.

Top notch turns all night. The wind buff was choice. My phone died so no pics of Mr. SirVic, but I can testify he was ripping. Time for bed.

I gave lots of people directions to Guest Services when Wildside went tits up at 4:30pm, but it would appear few took them. So much so that when I finally staggered in after hiking six laps and killing six tallboys while doing so they actually had to call their boss in to find them. I may have left a scathing review, I may regret shitting where I eat. But goddamn if I'm not just buying a pass to Mission next season. Weekday reciprocity, poach Hyak on the weekends and most importantly, no more getting skunked on turns in King County ever again!

Julie's, OTOH, isn't.
Someone I was hiking laps with last night told me it reminded him of the good old days when Thunderbird wasn't running. Said it was rare for that chair to spin more than a handful of times each season.
Today's snow report is a mess of tangled information. I'd recommend heading to Crystal if you need reliable operations

I used work at t'bird, really cool building, burgers n fries n beer with the central fireplace roaring are some special memories. Riding full kegs down the ramp and sneaking in to get laid at night with killer view were HIGHlites of my early skibum career.
yoyoing beaver lake chair was cool too
my supercomps were 1/2 leatherembrace the gape
and believe

My woman is skiing at Stevens today. She said there’s like a hundred people there and it’s waist deep in Corona Bowl

We checked it out last spring while doing skin laps. It's a fucking mess. Yeah, very cool place, but I don't see Boyne shelling out bucks to fix it or scrap and replace.
Several years ago they successfully revised the SUP to allow the new Alpy Knoll Zero Chair, realign West chairs on the fall line, etc., etc. -- yet the only significant expenditures on that has been the Rampart chair and the new Holiday chair. IMO, top priority should be to realign West chairs and stop decades of producing thousands of young skiers who turn left better than they turn right.

I worked at the pass in those days. Bartender at the Winestube. We had some good parties at the top of t-bird, and beaver lake was indeed a hoot. Springtime was a blast, lounging and drinking in the sun outside the t-bird lodge. There were real burgers and a real fire there. It was fun.
