Saddleback can't have bad lines, can they? What are the lines like at Bromley?DHS had the secret mountains correct. Wildcat, Black NH, Burke.

I really have a hard time believing a legitimate 20 minute wait at Saddleback on any day of the ski season.
Maybe it felt like it.
Pico and Magic shut down midweek all winter long!
Canyon quad runs every Mon, Wed, Fri. the past few years. Bear closed Wed. had cover but conditions were much better in other areas plus not to many people over there. Needle's ran everyday this week, Plenty of snow (natural & manmade) top to bottom on Vertigo, Panic Button, Needles & Cruise Control. Why wouldn't they run the Needle's chair? Something broke on North Ridge chair Tues. afternoon. They were working on it all day yesterday (Wed.) grinding & welding on the top bull wheel. It was running today but something didn't sound quite right at the top terminal.Killington was very unstingy yesterday by running the needles eye chair, OL chair, and CQ which normally don't run midweek
They sure are a money machine. I wonder what percentage of Loonies are pass holders. I'm sure they get a lot of traffic due to it's convenience from Boston. $$ talks.
Is that all???Closing a lift saves about the retail cost of about 4 tickets per.
Having been forced into the Gondola by the weekday closure of 7 Brothers, I have had many discussions with other skiers just as un-happy as I. Our "class" of customer is full price, or multi-day weekday buyer.
Closing a lift saves about the retail cost of about 4 tickets per day.
My contribution to reduced ticket sales for this season will be 28 full day mid-week. Group going elsewhere.
The "E" Lift (the one that goes up "Profile") gives full access to the upper mountain.I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Cannon not running the tramway midweek. Though that only loses Tramline and Kinsman Glade, which aren't open much anyway.
EDIT: Maybe it's because they aren't doing that anymore, if their trail and lift report is to be believed.

I suspect that's why the line at the tram isn't that horrific....
SIKSKIER has explained his dislike of the tram in the past and I think his feelings on it are pretty much the norm.
