Ski Diva Extraordinaire
I am so aggravated and this will sound so petty, but I am so mad at Vail. We bought the passes hoping to use them Christmas week. JFBB had absolute crap conditions so we didn't use them at all. I bought passes for two of my three "adult" kids. My daughter has Spring Break, but air fare to Park city (and anywhere out west) was over 700 a piece, so I looked at predicted closing dates of resorts and saw "mount snow April 17". Thought - GREAT! They are known for some of the best snow making on the East coast, so SURELY, on March 13, a full month earlier, they'd make snow...right? Right?? Well, no. As of now, they are 34% open. They were 100 percent open just over a week ago. They got 4-6 inches of snow last night, so I thought they'd open more, but so far they havent. I booked a ski out condo that is non refundable (another frustration with Air BNB) and now I feel like I am taking my daughter on a crappy vacation. I am so disappointed. Mad at myself for not just booking the $ flights...really mad at Vail that my kids didnt even get to use their passes (son refuses to wait in hour long Iines) and daughter away at college so THIS was going to be our week. Why the F isn't the resort making snow if they have a month to go~ SO annoyed. Do you thin maybe they are just letting the new snow go untouched do they can open more for the weekend?
