Uh, in case you don't know there is a big differnence between an accountant and a financial analyst. Accountants record the past, analysts like to think they can predict (and shape) the future. Now, which ones are the bigger d-bags?

Easy there killer. Neither are d-bags. There is absolutely nothing unethical about managing a business. Both positions are needed.... Maybe you just don't have the ability to understand what they do so it is just easier for you to call them names...

analysts are the bigger dbags by a long shot... accountants are just dorks, analysts actually think they know something.

If we had been open every day since 4/20, Lower East Fall would not look like that. All the skier traffic would compact the snow and speed the meltdown.

Right. No point. Might as well close on the April 13th as scheduled every year since the snow might not make it any longer, instead of operating (week ends only) until it actually did melt to a non-operable condition.

Very insightfull, and only two post in less than a year....hey thanks for the input. :D

Correct but late season is never East Fall, it faces in the wrong direction, gets too much sun, but those pics make it look pretty tasty.
Cogito, ergo sum

Sometimes it is that simple.

What about Downdraft? Lotta snow still there and it faces the right way for late season skiing.
