Today, at Keystone, I almost got my pass pulled, for skiing down an open run. There is a bypass to get to the park, and it goes down a blue run. On one side of the run, they made kind of a skiercross course, with little jumps, rollers, and banked turns, and I hauled ass through that, because it was fun. there was a rope down one side so that if you were on the run you couldnt cross over, and vice versa. it was open on the top and bottom.
I rounded the corner, about to turn to go to the park, when I see a yellow guy, with a huge grin on his face yell to his partner "We got one!" then signal for me to talk to him. here's what happened.
me: 'whats up?'
yellow guy: 'what are you doing over there?'
me: 'skiing.'
yg: 'thats closed. why the hell were you over there? let me see your pass'
at this point i was kinda freaked out because i had a warning already and thought he was gonna pull my pass (more on that later)
me: 'sir, the run is open at the top. i have done nothing wrong'
he didnt believe me so he made me hike up to prove that it was open. then he accused me of opening it, but let me ski away.
Earlier in the season, i got an official warning for speed checking and spraying a tree as i exited the park.....
Keystone told me that since i didnt know their names, they cant do anything about it. neither of them were wearing a nametag.
SPARKNOTES: almost got my pass pulled for skiing an open run, then was accused of opening it myself. Keystone refuses to acknowledge any wrongdoing.
Anyone have any other stories like this? particularly at keystone?
(sorry for long post)
