why was Switzerland first? anyone?
My hint was too tricky for you. I don't mean the top rated beer.
I think someone taking the huge bag of money happened at Magic already:angry:
Have to say this is a brutal thread beating up on low budget Magic. I think some of you should give them a break. It has been a very hard start for all ski areas. For Magic to have strayed soon would have been a waste of money. Granted a few days here or the have been lost but it is what it is and the first two foot dump on cover many of you will be skiing it.

Wrong. I patrol at another mountain in VT and have for 15 years. The NSP only has general liability for its educator's when they are instructing a class of other NSP members. Whether you are paid or a volunteer you are working as an agent of the area that you patrol at. Simple as that. And the good Samaritan Act may or may not cover you. But I'm not willing to roll the dice and I would never patrol at mountain without a general liability policy. If you're a young kid with no family and no assets go for it but I wouldn't. Don't believe me google the NSP policy and procedures Chapter 8. Happy reading.
Good to read that Magic is making snow. Love that hill on powder days.
And you sir broke 2 of the rules in the responsibility code with your screen name. Your opinion as a ski patroller means nothing!

I haven't kept up with this thread. Reading has been just brutal, especially knowing many of the posters and their connections to the mountain. I haven't been following FB either. Clearly there are some serious infrastructure issues as we've all know about for years, but they don't compare to the management issues.
What really bums me out is this sort of thing just reinforces the 'only go there on a powder day' narrative and the mt. won't survive with that rep. These people need to sell before they lose it all anyway - the incompetence is just baffling.
Regardless, I hope to get up there mid-late Feb (the next time work sends me back east) and enjoy some shenanigans!

I haven't gotten even a whiff of that. People seem to want different management, but don't mistake that for wishing that the mountain would close.Lots of these posts read like you'll be happy if Magic closes. If you feel that way kindly go fuck yourself. You know who you are.
Should we have let tom just not blow snow because the pump was not running.
