Plattekill Conditions

I don’t think Vail will go out of business. They might lay off lots of employees, sell a few mountains and quash all thier capital projects. And if they figure out that discounting their mega pass product too much prevents them from selling day tickets at frontline price and destroyed their margin, they might have to raise the price on it a lot next year.
 
Platty has a good bar scene which will take a hit. Most ski areas will feel the lodge restrictions, lack of booze and food sales.

There are a few days each season, some more than others, with cars parked down the road...sometimes up to a mile.
 
Parking is their capacity limit -they don't have enough lot space to make lift lines. Which is rational as it is so seldom an issue.

On those busy days there are def some lines, nothing like Hunter, but lines.

Unfortunately, lodge capacity will not only cut F&B revenue but will also keep skiers away.
 
I’m going to adopt the VT‘er position and say “Stay the F home, typhoid Harvey!” You can ski Campgaw and Mountain Crack.
wjw, don't forget big snow lol!
 
Hit the aptly initialed BS in Sept. Not bad to test our new seasonal rental gear in Sept skiing in NJ - but once a year max.
 
Bring it my brothers...
