I had a nice day out with you guys. Dave, wow you stayed until 5. You're in better shape than me. I don't think I would have lasted that long. Pius, I'll take you up on your offer next time we meet. I'm in for Wisp, just need to know a day in advance. I decided to go today with my wife. WT got 5 inches of snow and the conditions were better than yesterday. Of course the crowd was building up as the morning progressed but it wasn't too bad.
The only issue we had was the magic carpet gate kept malfunctioning. For those who have not traveled to WT this season. WT installed a magic carpet to assist with loading patrons onto the lift. I like to call it "The Magic Lego Belt". Before you enter the Lego Belt, there's a gate and it opens/closes to allow access to chair. It was only yesterday I was thinking how long this new contraption would hold up. Today, the gate would jam and not let anyone pass and the whole time you're waiting for the gatekeeper to fix the gate, empty chairs carousel by empty. This happened several times so now, not only do we have to wait on beginners learning curve on entering & exiting the lift, we have to contend with the gate. So dress warm in case you're suspended on the chairlift waiting, while you freeze your a##. I should have dressed warm but who knew...
