Buddy of mine who went to KMS told me it happened once while he was there - he’s 35ish, so around Y2K I’d guess.madhatter wrote:has K ever closed the entire mtn midwinter for cold wind? paging g-smashed...
So not unprecedented, but pretty damn rare.

I remember a midweek January day maybe 10 to 15 years ago when they closed after an hour or two of operation. Part of the metal roof on the KBL was ripped off. Went to Pico to finish the ski day.

Re: Lifts open at 9am this weekend?
I'm fine with them closing K. They have Pico open, so no problem; as long as they have at least one option, even if it's just one lift-good for them.deadheadskier wrote:And Mike could and apparently does easily care more about the safety of his staff at the mountain and giving a little extra time for things to warm up than appeasing a few whiners like yourself.f.a.s.t. wrote:They could easily have one lift open at 8 am.
