re: #387 klys (maker of Silmarils)

I’ve been up that gondola.

Not in the winter.

That gondola doesn’t run in the winter, it’s strictly a summer attraction.

Usually there’s 15 foot snow walls in the three avalanche paths on the side of the highway on the west side of the pass. There hasn’t been enough snow for any kind of avalanche control this year. Hell, college kids from Western State haven’t been able to hike up into Tea Cup Bowl to build a big kicker to practice backflips. It’s fucking January! *shudder*
