Saddest most delusional meeting report yet.......November.......even that seems possibly unlikely.......and of course the skiing product won't be improved as Q stands for quality not $ and obviously they don't possess any management skills.

Biking from mid burke.........OK whatever......just keep the lifts spinning Jr you useless @#$&!!!!!!!

Good idea in some ways...the BDL is classic. I'd rather see the lodge used. Nice views. Campground is also nearby.

But there's limited parking, they aren't taking care of the building, and it seems weird to move the ops there considering that you have condos down there and it's the bottom of the lift. Also weird to have an empty Hotel sitting there.

Honest question. U going Burke pass next yr or elsewhere? BW, Loon?

I bought gift cards last November during a promotion. I'm stuck. At the time I thought that snowmaking improvements would happen. That's what matters the most to me by far.

Are they mutually exclusive?

Again, Cannonball, I took quite a bit of time to write an informative post. People on this forum should be supportive of others who take the time to do things like that. It's simple courtesy. I'm not asking for praise. I'm just asking you to refrain from taking the opportunity to be negative. Sending PMs telling people to "fuck off" is MUCH worse than my write up of the meeting. Much worse, indeed. Before you throw a stone, perhaps you should notice the glass house. This is especially true when it's concerning a mountain that you haven't even skied at this year.

Ary just doesn't get it. Ski resorts for the most part in the East are so interwoven into their communities they often act as one. You cannot burn that connection and expect to be successful. Very sad state of affairs there.

I think the person repeatedly telling me to fuck off should be the one who lightens up. But apparently on this forum it doesn't work that way.

Are you sure you know what "repeatedly" means? Twice doesn't really fit the definition.

re·peat·ed·ly
rəˈpēdədlē/
adverb
over and over again; constantly.
"they have been warned repeatedly with no effect"
synonyms: frequently, often, again and again, over and over (again), time and (time) again, time after time, many times, many a time; persistently, recurrently, constantly, continually, regularly,

Did you miss the "among other things" part?

Let's talk about Burke, already!
