2/25 Magic Mountain Trip Report Goes Here

[Greg]

2knees and the Red Chair

Apparently it broke down and he's waiting to be evac'ed as we speak.... :lol:

 

[MRGisevil]

Spoke with Tim- He and Pat are up at Magic and apparently the lift's broke....with Pat still on it.

Figure some pretty choice words will be filled in here before the day's out :lol:.

The questions that beg to be asked now. How high up is he?? How soft/not soft is the potential landing area?? Will their be pics/vids of the potential chair huck??

 

[severine]

:lol: That's pretty funny. Karma for all those who couldn't skip out on work and join them?

 

[Grassi21]

If I had functional skis I would have been sitting right next to him...

 

[o3jeff]

Why is 2knees only stuck up there? Did Tim jump off?

 

[powhunter]

Hows it hanging Pat???

 

[bvibert]

That sucks. I hope they get it resolved soon!

 

[billski]

what is going on? is the red lift really stopped?
did they get the black lift back in service?

 

[MRGisevil]

Timmy got there a bit later and Pat had already headed up the mountain for a run. He was in line, about to get on the lift, when it stopped. I got a txt msg at 11:45 that said "Pat's off, we're going to Bromley", but I'm not quite sure if they got the lift running again or not.

 

[roark]

That sucks.

 

[wa-loaf]

Sux for the 2knees.

If it was me, I might enjoy getting down from the lift chair, never done that. Then again, depends on whether they have some nice bumps on the trail.

 

[2knees]

that was interesting.

way too far to even think about hucking it. but when they put me down, i was in a big hole off on the side of redline. had fun trying to climb out of that.

props to the magic ski patrol for a truly professional job. lift was still not spinning went i stopped by on my way home, about 3:45, to get a voucher for another day.

 

[deadheadskier]

How long were you stuck up there for?

 

[2knees]

about an hour. felt like 4 hours cause i had to take a piss before i even got on the lift. I was about 5 minutes away from pissing off the lift.

i don't think anyway could fault you for pissing off the lift.
