Did anyone hear the story about a passholder who lambasted the management for the issues with the new terrain on FB, then got his pass money refunded and told he’s no longer allowed to ski at Hunter?

Yes. It was a woman actually. And they also refunded her locker fee.

I would not ski there if I hated it. It boggles my mind that a public company operates like this........

Just seems like you jump on every negative thing you can find for some reason.


You have to admit there are a lot of scary negatives happening this season, most of which should never have happened. I don't like to see people get hurt and/or die when most can be prevented. And them to take someone's pass for freedom of speech, but allow blue boy to keep skiing is beyond comprehension
I realize it is a public place and it attracts all kinds. But it is insane now. The bar is a shit show - guys being dragged out in cuffs, another dying of an overdose in the bar. I have not been there often this season, but everyday there has been quite the experience.

I just go to snowboard - I don't do the lodge or care about "blueboy".
I'm having a great season! Maybe I'm just oblivious to the drama.. Or I just don't give a shti...

Wait What? I haven't seen/heard anything about people being cuffed or dying at the bar! Where did you get this from?

Hunter sounds like Afghanistan. I feel like I’m missing out as a Peaks passholder.

I thought someone ODed in the lift shack?

I'm not sure someone getting dragged out of the bar in cuffs is all that scandalous though. Place has always been a hard drinking mountain, hasn't it?

Not missing out on much - unless you feel like partying in the lodge.
It's still actually a fun place when I go. I just have too much weird personal history there :) So I tend to keep away now.

I heard through the grapevine that a liftie had a seizure. Either way, it's not my business. No matter what the cause was, I hope that he or she got/is getting the help needed to get better.

Never heard about anything like that in the bar, but I'm not around there much. "Hard-drinking"? Psssh, it's a bit boozy but hardly spring break at Panama City Beach or a Hells Angels clubhouse.

someone did OD in the bar. Ask any regular or employee. I just happened to be there that day.

Glad that Blue Boy had his pass reinstated at Hunter.

It means he won't be skiing at MY mountain.

Long live Blue Boy.
