    Take a zero off, and it's way more accurate. I mean, someone might tip $3k the day they get their bonus from Goldman Sachs, but that's it.

    Park City Ski Patrol Strike

    Author styles himself a merger and acquisition specialist, i.e., a vulture capitalist. Did anyone else catch the spelling error in the story, is Forbes too cheap to hire a copy editor?

    Thank you. As a nordic skier, I'm far from having a complete grasp of what's going on in the alpine world.

    Yep. Yesterday, it was around 20-22 degrees at the Ho. But the wind chill chased me off early. Better prepared today.

    Ski patrol contract expired in April. If Fail had negotiated in good faith, they wouldn't be in the find out portion of FAFO.

    Lake Placid got 4 inches; Saranac Lake got bupkis. Looks like VT got the lion's share.

    On Wednesday, they were saying 40 km open. That includes 3 snowshoe trails. A good bit of what was called open hadn't been rolled since 5" of snow Monday night. I can't speak to what they did Thursday, I took a rest day. Trapp Family Lodge, Craftsbury, and Prospect Mt are all partially open...

    In an ideal world, I would have delayed taking social security. But my personal trining biz cratered with the lockdown.

    They've used UTVs to roll the 1980 Olympic trails. Despite all the snow we've gotten, not many of those are open. They're using Pisten Bullys to groom the World Cup trails and push out snow.
