Opening a 1/2 hour later on weekends is a great idea.

Just look how well opening Skyeship a 1/2 hour later worked out this year.

"Amazing" none of the previous owners ever thought of it.

Now that it's been fully modernized I wonder how did SKI LTD and ASC ever do such a great job all those years without the wisdom of Park City to guide them? I now see it's much better to have a short season and no need to make as much snow and who needs those extra skiers anyway. Who needs that? Those old fashioned companies didn't know what they were doing and it's a good thing PowDr came along and improved everything and saved us all.

I heard the next improvement will be bidet's in the ladies and men's rooms and they're buying more snowmaking equipment they won't use.

Until PowDr[\b] i never thought anyone could make ASC look good and again I'm wrong.


PLEASE separate the Dr or change the highlight "wDr" so some do not confuse it with a few of us that use that monicer. (sp)
p.s. good positive post!

A foot of snow in April when others are closed is amazing. Also, that the K1 is spinning after it looked like it was closed for the season is super amazing!

Sorry if this was aforementioned, but part of the amazement will be center stage today ...

Jay Peak is pretty amazing too, but K being about 90 minutes closer to my house makes it extra amazing.

I'm very disappointed. Thought you had stopped the gay bashing. Unfortunately, your behavior still reflects a total lack of respect for gays. I'm sorry for you. Hope it's just that you don't know better.
