Question for Single Mountain Season Pass Holders

Looks like a flock of sheep
 
I thought waiting 10 minutes for the gondola at Belle today was bad!
 
If you waited ten minutes for that gondola, yes, that was bad.
 
Is that Vail? Once you ride that lift are you home free with upper mountain lifts or are you doomed to a whole day of that?
Is that a recent pic?
 
Those pictures were from Vail last Feb after they got about 40" in 48 hours. They could ony open the lifts erratically due to avalance danger and just clearing the lifts. The lifts that opened first had those crazy lines.
 
Chair 5 at the bottom of Sundown. Only way out of the back bowls at that point. Brilliant area management by the geniuses at Vail, again. I'm a bit astounded at wtf the management at Hunter is thinking these days, too. Why ar they allowing Westway to grow back in, like an old abandoned ski area? But, hey, it's Vail.
 
Camp I'm there. Two things about my skimpy 14 day season so far...

Well over 90% of my lift rides this year were zero wait time.

And I've already gotten more pow (7 days) than in any other season in my life.

(Granted "only" been skiing since age 40.)
