None of you ski or work at squaw?

Seems like the tits big mountain with a thousand more vertical feet than alpine. Am I missing something other than the fact there pass is 1600?

In comparison though, the midweek alpine pass is 549 and the squaw midweek is 899.

Alpine has more variety of terrain, although maybe not as much gnar-bucket stuff. The manner in which you access terrain at Alpine makes for a better experience over a longer period of time, but you have to be willing to hike for it. Plus the VIBE is a million times better.
It gets pretty agro at Squaw on a pow day.

im all for a hike.

vibe is key, this early session vibe so far in the midwest is killing me. People coming to blows, snaking eachother left and right, and piles of snowboarders sitting around NOT hitting any features.......its stressful.

squaw is schill ill, like its big, and theres some cool shit. maybe alpine is mad ill cuz its all big jump lines and you can go up, ski beaver, fuckin air'n cornices, going big steeze through the bowl, weaving trees, fuckin hitting the pryamid jump, hit a couple more little rock lines, then end up in a huge jump line, then back to summit chair. fuckin later, rinse repeat, repeat, lather, lather, repeat, rinse

^ All at Alpine. But I've never heard of this pyramid jump. I think I know what your talking about if its the mound thing above the park after a big tree.
