Deer in the headlights since day one.
"We're trying to take this out of politics" said the politician
I was one of the hikers and was really wondering why they didn't start running IP lift as an evacuation route and why Cannonball wasn't going immediately. The line was so bad when I reached the front side that I just went home. Also questionable was the fact that they didn't close the run up top when the problems started. I watched as the diesel engine belched smoke when the problems started. I made the mistake of going back down which lead to my hike out. That said, the hike wasn't that bad. Sounds like Eldora's response has been terrible though. If I was a day pass or 4 packer I would be irate.
I'm a little bit embarrassed for you on this one Len. I hope you're trolling here.
I was one of the hikers and it wasn't that bad. They worked to get the kids out with the sleds and the rest of us hiked less than 1/2 mile to Four O'Clock Trail and then rode out. However, the outage was WAY longer than 20 minutes, they let people keep going down Corona run after the problems started ( I was one), and when I got to the front side the lines were so absurd that I called it a day. I have a season pass but if I burned a four-pack ticket I would be raising hell with them.
You are correct. I sat on the chair and watched them get the diesel engine going three times before it finally ran well enough to get people off. However, they didn't close down the run at that point and a lot of us thought that the issue was fixed and rode back down. Bad move. I was one of the hikers and to be quite honest, it was an inconvenience but no trail of tears. The crew worked hard to get the ski school kids out with the sleds. That said, anyone who burned a day pass should be compensated. It was way more than 20 minutes and the lines were so long on the front side that they spilled way beyond the maze.
Let's start with the enforcement of immigration law.
Sad day for Eldo season pass holders.
Friends don't let friends drive Boulder Canyon. SOLD OUT!!!
We begged for this lawsuit and we got it. Funny how all the fliers about 300 failed to mention the inevitable lawsuits or the fact that the law is on the side of those suing us.
