So Snowbird offers this early morning Tram at 7:30 AM. It's only offered on certian days of the week (I know wednessday and either monday or friday). Tonight it's snowing, Even if it stops right now and we are left with only 6 inches it will still the best skiing I have had in a long time.
I will have to take a real early bus. I usually take the 7:54 bus, but I'll have to catch the 6:19 bus (as the 6:49 bus cuts it too close for comfort). I tried calling the resort but the dumbass who does the general routing didn't know anything about it. Maybe it's a deal that is only offered to instructors, I don't know.
The problem is I don't work until 9am. I am usually there at 8:50 because sometimes you get kids who come in early. So if I head up, I am stuck at the resort with nothing to do. I suppose I could hike up a bit and get a few turns in, but that doesn't sound appealing in the slightest. None of the lifts nor the public tram opens until 9, which is too late for me to ride anyways.
Here are my odds as they stand now.
54.95% I get up there and have to sit around until 9
40% it beign open and I get a few good runs in before work
5% I get up there and find an odd job to pad the pay check
.05% I get up there and "first tracks" at 7:45 lets me on without paying them a dime
UPDATE:"Once again, the conservative, sandwich-heavy portfolio pays off for the hungry investor!"
I didn't go because the bus was way too early and I don't like drive when the sun hasn't woken up yet (ICY!). Turns out the early tram sessions are tuesdays and thursdays! Boy did I have that wrong!
