Has anyone seen this? I guess it's one of Vail's way to stop the trends from your favorite skiers.

It's about time mountains start taking action to eliminate gapers.

This isn't getting rid of the gapers. This is far worse. This is telling them to camouflage themselves and make them less predictable when riding up a chair or on the slopes

No worries, gapers won't even read that, they don't even notice that this article is for them !

But ... there many important rules that have been forgotten like; plz dont go in the park ! If you do (by mistake) stay away from the feature so no one hurt himself cause youre in the wrong spot.
(The bar was a good one though !).

This is such a bummer. I love playing spot the gaper gap when I'm in the lift line.

Absolutely not. At a Vail resort?? Vail resorts protect the gapers.

The point about the poles on the catwalk was a stupid one. Who cares if they're pointing straight in the air and you look dumb. Not as dumb as the person pizza'ing across the fuckin catwalk.

The nice thing is gapers don't realize they're gapers until they're not, so they still won't blend in.
