Never seen anything like this lift line cutting or splitting all the way to the lift chair. I Have had to move out of the way for people and I have had to move through a line before to join a group I fell behind with lots of excuse ME's and for sure if you dont fit past or between there is no way pushing people to get by is OK. Not one word out of the person and lots and lots of Ski on Ski contact. WTF??? I cant believe that would work too well with some people and ski area attitudes.

Maybe he was doing a Charity fund run for Vertical feet or run's done in a day? Usually if crowded you would think they would use the Singles line or the Lesson/worker line and ask or talk to the other riders.

tbh it's every other person's fault in that line. it doesn't mean he's not an asshole and should probably have his ticket taken, but the dude saw an opportunity and took advantage of it. if it happened to me i'd shove him back and tell him to eat it but everyone else is just submissive and stupid nowadays, won't raise a finger to anything.

Bolton I think you are speaking of. I was there today and there was no real crowd at all. At least until 2 pm when it got “crowded”. By crowded I mean a 4 minute lift line. They didn’t have a line corral and everyone was in one line.
Every run was a tree run today and rarely saw others except those I was with. Bump runs were great as well.
Skinned up wilderness for the first run.
Flurries in the morning and snowed harder in the afternoon.

Alleged Rental Car Drives Onto Open Ski Trail "this" past weekend. In a video shared by @i70things on Instagram, a car arrives halfway up a mountain to deposit its fur-coat-clad passenger.
