The Ugh Thread

[Ripitz]

Two teachers at Peanut’s daycare tested positive for COVID. Looks like we might have ourselves a quarantine Thanksgiving.

A toddler and an infant became sick as well. Thankfully they recovered and so did the teachers. Quarantine sure was a challenge but now we’re back in business. Glad to return to ‘normal’. Going skiing helped a lot.

WTH, why would they continue to run that chair? That's just stupid.

First world problems. Whoa

how hard it to turn the pumps and compressors off...i'm guessing a couple of knife switches
nobody seems to be concerned with the almost dead skier

Yeah, they probably would have to turn off the whole line but still should only take a couple minutes once the patroller showed up and recognized the danger. That one guy looked really hurt. News report says two went to the hospital but are ok

It's harder than starting and stopping the lifts.

Great idea running the piping close to the lift towers . Had the leak been on the side of the pipe it might have undermined the tower concrete footing and foundation.
I recall seeing a video maybe a year ago water shooting all the way across a trail towards at running lift . This leak could have been worse in comparison.
