I'm just airing my bitches about the way things are done there. (I'm not saying that I'd be better in the job, as I can imagine the mgr has his hands full). I just think it could be more professional.
As for woods skiing and hiking, I'm not doing that any more. The last time I hiked to terain was a number of years back at Copper, ~12,000 ft; thought I was gonna die! The 3' of fresh in Union bowl, (maybe 1 minute to get down), attracted me. I now believe there are only 3 ways to the top:
1)chairlift
2)dirve
3)helicopter
Any other way is for you younger folks
Peace! (from the '60's)
