And the incidents multiply for this season. No hint of any wrongdoing by Vail Inc. Probably goofing around with no bar down or etc... though hard to say with such limited info. https://www.vaildaily.com/news/vail-chairlift-accident-sends-2-to-hospital/

My only gripe about EWR is that it is overschedualed for landings and take-offs. Can quickly create flight delays at times.

It's been a few years, but used to go to/through both for work on a regular basis. Both worth a couple days, though they are heavily westernized, "Asia light" kind of cities. Still some good stuff to see and experience.

Skieric can confirm, but my understanding of the past few days is that nearly everyone who gets stents has a lifelong likelihood of arrhythmia occurring. Arrhythmia has very high likelihood of generating blood clots and therefore strokes. And that is why lifelong blood thinners: to prevent strokes.

Wow, that IG post is just brutal. That's one way to f-up your reputation as a business.

For me it was nearly instant upper chest pain (7 of 10 at start, 9 of 10 by hospital), plus both hands and lower arms tingling very significantly. 2 stents, one on the 'widowmaker' artery. I was on blood pressure med. Not sure the proper artery order of the calcium scores, but mine were 0, 0...

My update is a very unfortunate one. With some great plans and fun times expected I may or may not ski another day by late this season. Despite all the right foods, exercise, no big sin habits, health measuring (calcium scores), pills, etc... my short term world came apart last Wednesday at...

I never looked yesterday, but they are certainly working today... Loveland Dec 1st report (the 5a vs 8a makes literally no sense though. Loveland did not have any new snow between 5a and 8a yesterday to have different 24hr figures like that. I know as I drove right on by the base on dry roads...

A combination day to stretch the legs and watch the women's World Cup SL race. Chilly day with on and off light snow. Not a lot of ski terrain open so we were not in a rush. Arriving at 10a and leaving just before 3p with zero traffic issues either direction. Now if only that were the case in...

How in the world did you pay so much for a Base Ikon? Mine was only $859 I'm sad that Base+ went away. I can't see myself ever needing more than 5 days at AltaBird, Jackson, Aspen , etc... I had that upgrade pass for one season and the extra $200 over Base was a good price point for me. I...

Not that I've used them really but I know over the years Breck, Copper and Vail have had embedded lights in the big on mountain trail maps in a couple spots for open/closed and long vs short lift lines (eg each lift on a few of the big trail maps top or bottom will have red, green and yellow...

Speaking of underpowered snowmaking in the West. ABasin will open it's 2nd trail for the season perhaps today. That would be exactly one month after opening their first! Crazy! usually about a 2 week timeframe, but warm temps + dry/little water, etc... have combined to be a near train wreck for...

Great, we'll have 8 guys pile into your timeshare up canyon with you! Lol. Sounds like we should coordinate a day or two perhaps. The Guys crew likes to skip around and will likely hit both Big and Little. Some of the NYC guys may even go over to PC for a day (they usually have Epic due to...

My annual guys trip just got decided. Something in the March 10-15 timeframe in Utah. I think the leader is shooting for lodging up one of the canyons vs in Sandy, but that is left to be figured out. So those are my 3 big trips: 2 Mustang Powder trips and Utah.

No Monarch? They did put in a new lift on the backside. I'm hoping to get there this year at some point myself.

Here's all I need to know about my current situation. It may or may not be related to my situation by this weekend, but for today...

Well, it'll be interesting to see if Telluride opens up at all. They're expecting the patrol to possibly strike and trying to hire replacement workers. Good luck with that in such a remote tiny town given the requirements for that role.

Yep. Haven't even considered skiing yet. At least Copper is pretty close on opening several more public trails. Though it won't help much because lots more skiers are about to show up.

Holy moley. I didn't think those web cams could actually be from today, but yikes they are! This may be a slight outlier season, but yeah the 50 and 25 inch numbers are bad misrepresentation. I get that somewhere they probably are trying to keep detailed NWS style annual snowfall records, but...
