Can we discuss the snowmaking system?PinnacleJim wrote: ↑Feb 16th, '24, 17:30 I would be willing to bet that if Powdr came in and replaced every lift on the mountain in one fell swope, people here would still find things to complain about.

Sure. Completely replace that and what's next? Parking? Price of beer? Lack of free valet service to carry your stuff?

Re: Needles Eye Quad status?
Kzone would be a pretty boring place if we got rid of the complaining.

All the complaining here really sucks. I hate it more than Killington’s lift issues.
Never argue with idiots. They will bring you down to their level, then overwhelm you with their experience.

Re: Needles Eye Quad status?
We have been preemptively complaining about parking for years now. And I agree, screw killington for their village plan and base camp bear. Make the parking ski to with a lift instead of unreliable shuttles then we are talking. Beers are too expensive. Their bay 1 paid for always looks pretty empty every weekend we ski. Oh also we need more/better progression parks for us old folks.PinnacleJim wrote: ↑Feb 16th, '24, 18:08 Sure. Completely replace that and what's next? Parking? Price of beer?

Pres Smith had a village mock up that had a lift running through it. A visionary. Too bad the money grabbing POS powdr and great gulf are going to turn the basin into a mess for non property owners. I bet they start charging to park in the non remote lots.
Ski It If You Can!..

Meh. By the time the village is complete cars will be obsolete. We’ll have flying donkeys or some such nonsense.

FWIW - Two weeks ago, on the really busy Saturday, the Bay 1 lot was sold out for the day. We drove up at about 11:30 just to see the situation and the parking lot attendent told us only a few spots were left and being saved in case anyone with a pass came up.Killington_Lover wrote: ↑Feb 16th, '24, 19:38We have been preemptively complaining about parking for years now.

Donkeys are forbidden at the Mogul Challenge. That won't work.

Mine is an emotional support donkey. It’s permitted by law. Besides, no one has ever denied entrance to a flying donkey.

Flying donkeys will be identified in advance of arrival by their upgraded camera system and brought down by laser technology recently added to their RFID system, all of this enhanced and coordinated through application of artificial intelligence in the phone app. The money from those $16 beers isn’t going to waste.

I find its stops disconcerting. Very abrupt and it triggers an oscillation in the line that bounces the chair a lot. Pretty much every time.
