This is a similar discussion that took place in another thread…. Feel free to merge if necessary
In light of the recent discussion regarding the A-Basin chair lift incident…Just got word today that guests wearing backpacks, employees and patrollers who wear backpacks will be required to remove and carry when boarding a lift. Belt style and fanny packs still OK. It did not take long for this to trickle down to the Midwest. A wise choice given how short our runs are and the amount of lift rides we have to take in a day chasing vertical. Not really much of a need to wear a pack around here anyway unless you are working and need to carry tools or lots of medical supplies. I wonder how long it will take before the pendulum swings completely in the direction of ”no” at all the resorts?
