Whistler locals are furious over Vail’s spring ops plans

Post by GlacierBoy »

Howdy y’all-
if Superstar is done by mid-May, things could be worse like at Whistler Blackcomb where there is snow -Our fellow riders and skiers on the West coast are not happy with Vail Whistler this spring:

“Most notably, the resort will shut down Whistler Mountain and only offer spring skiing on Blackcomb Mountain. Locals are not happy with other aspects of the plan.

Check out what people are saying in the comments (their names/handles have been removed for privacy):

"Gotta love waiting in the biggest lines of the season on a spring Monday. Who’s making these decisions"

"Why is there only one gondola open. The line is so long it takes up the entire village. Please fix for tomorrow!"

"Will not be coming back due to such poor operations! Absolutely unacceptable!"

"Might have been nice to let people know beforehand that there would only be one access point. Absolute joke. #fail"

"Lets close the blackcomb gondola without notice on a pow day!” -Vail"
