Can we lock stupid spammy threads like this that are created by non-users? The obvious attempts by other "users" to bump the thread are pretty lame... Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

Solid theory. And judging by the appx timing of your first post, you got on the computer for a fun day of trolling right after your mom left for work? Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

JV level trolling. Sober up and try again. Oh, and could you please explain to us posers what Big Wall Skiing is? It sounds rad, brah.

The Green chair is a great call. Magic has such a great family vibe, and the one thing that has been missing is the availability of beginner terrain. Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

You don't necessarily need to wait until you get to the bottom of the course. You are entitled to leave your skis wherever you please. Embrace the race culture! Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

I begrudgingly entered the line for the tram on Sunday because the guy I was skiing with had never been to Jay, and "wanted to do it" (as did both of our boys). Once in line he had second thoughts after doing a rough count and realizing that only 40 at a time get on. There was probably a 4 car...

I've never given a thought to the jacket unzipped thing. However I would add: 4: Put your poles traps on! Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

Jay was really good yesterday. Bluebird skies, zero wind, mild temps and mid-winter conditions. Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

So leaving them on the ground at the base lodge will keep the wax the same temp as the snow? Perhaps these kids are forgetting that they will be riding a lift to get back to the course...? Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

I tell my kids that I will lock their skis in my car if they leave them on the ground. It's one thing if the racks are completely full, but clearly they weren't in this case. Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

My spring pass is in hand. Bring on the corn harvest. Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

Sorry. Didn't see this til now. By 90, I just mean that it's a regular tune, no bevel one way or the other. I used to bevel the edges both ways at 2 degrees, but the regular hardpack trail skiing performance ranged anywhere from crappy to downright scary! Each time I dialed it back a bit...

I worked there for a bit in college. Only skied there a few times since we had passes at Alpine Meadows. I do recall some fun bump runs - Thunder and Lightning. Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

Oh, I didn't realize the Cal-Neva was closed....! It's been nearly 25 years since I've lived there (I worked at the Crystal Bay Club for a while). Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

Did you consider staying in Crystal Bay to take advantage of cheap casino lodging? Sent from my iPhone using AlpineZone

I'm not in the "replace the tram camp", however it should be pointed out that although the tram delivers a relatively small amount of traffic to the summit, what it does do is deliver that traffic in chunks. Yes, it's "busy" when everyone offloads and then puts their skis on, and subsequently...
