My god. The continuous updates for the slidebrook lift. You would think it was the main lift for the entire resort. Can we please just give it a rest. :rolleyes:

I rode it twice this year, and both times every chair was going loaded in each direction. So despite the ambivalence of some towards the lift, obviously people find it useful and likely appreciate communication of its status.
It was packed when I rode it on Sunday. Nearly every chair had passengers.

Snow was very good at Mt. Ellen today. Visibility? Hope you had radar :eek: Place was pretty empty other than one roving gang of 5 year olds. No worse than a Thursday, if that.

A friend was recently (like 10 days ago) at Solitude. Called about buying tix and asked if there were any discounts. Person on the other end of the line said do you have any friends or family who have an Ikon pass. He gave them my name and hometown and they gave him 50% off tix, no questions asked. I didn't even tell him to do it and it doesn't look like they were credited against my allowed F&F tix. Happy that he was able to get reasonable tix.
