That chair still getting replaced with a chondola soon?
That is the rumor.
That chair still getting replaced with a chondola soon?
The rumor now is summer of 2020. I had a feeling it’s replacement was going to be pushed back after they got that new part for the Agassiz chair in December. The word now is they are going to build a new Hart Prairie lodge. Another interesting rumor is when the new lift goes in they want to put a restaurant up there. With the water issues that seems problematic to me. Personally I think they should figure out how to make decent food before making more restaurants but whatever. I mean, my god their food is total shit.
The bad food problem is affecting all of Coleman's resorts. I had one of the worst meals of my life at Purgatory a few weeks ago. Went to Wolf Creek and they had a guy making gourmet pizza at their upper lodge and fresh pulled pork sandwiches, that's how it needs to be.
Indeed, visited Purg three weeks ago. Three meals in three different venues, all dismal. Not expecting gourmet, but how hard is it to serve a brat that's not approaching jerky?
That is brutal lol. My worst meal ever skiing was at Sunrise. Ordered a french dip sandwich that tasted like it had been dipped in dog shit. Pro tip, order the fry bread taco when out there. I like raisingarizona's ideas about tacos and burritos, that would be great.
Dumping snow at both AZ mountains and no one is even talking about it. Tomorrow should be excellent.

It’s golf season!
Jk.
First descents (or pretty darn close to it) in the Arizona back country. Not me or my video.
I'm going to head up tonight.
As for the food, I've only tried the fries as everything seems overpriced. Almost Vail prices which is a little much for snowbowl. Regardless, I'd probably eat at the Jeep anyway.
I love this time of year, best snow and dwindling crowds! I want to see someone do a first descent on Kendrick Peak. I know how to get up there in winter if you ever want to do it.
I bet it’s been skied. It would be a fun adventure though.
Since the last burn two years ago the inner bowl and some of the northern aspects on Kendrick are completely free of downed logs and brush. During a season like this it is prime 9k+ touring terrain and I bet no one even thinks about it.
