One more quick one: Last season was not the best for snowmaking. During my visit in March with some fellow AZer's, we noticed that Upper Warrens was unusually barren. I talked to some locals who said that this trail had been covered first and then the snow melted. I thought that this was one of the last to be covered? Any improvements to snowmaking? Kudos on blowing snow on trails such as Upper Fox's and Middle Fox's Folly. How about some more on Ledges?

If this partnership comes to fruition, the chances of the new chair increase.

i like how the word "partnership" was used in this statement. that makes me feel much better about this supposed "unnamed outfit."

Contingent on any deal was retaining the character of Burke. A significant part of that character is Burke's connection to its community. That connection was non-negotiable. It's safe to say, no matter what changes become of Burke, 5 or 10 years from now, you'll still recognize this place at Burke. As of now, our management team will remain in place. What the future holds there, I do not know. Personally, I hope to be here a long time.

Bob, Sorry, man, I know nuttin' about that tree, other than every time I go by I wonder how those panties got there.

:lol:

what a challenge response! david mixes in new unrevealed information, provides some inside poop, satisfies the die hards, and tosses in a bit of comdey! give that man a :beer: and hopefully i'll see him in the jungle!

Gives me hope that it will not be a private ski club

Great responses, Dave delivered and did a great job. Like Pats, they really seemed to take the advice seriously and he was quite genuine. I figured he was going to wait until the sale of the mtn to go through before answering...
