Chawn2112My local ski hill is currently making snow, theyve been posting on insta and it seems there is already a decent amount, but it's not gonna be open soon. I wanna go shred it dis weekend, what might happen if I get caught? Do the maintenance crew work during weekends?
PuzzledDo it. Worst case scenario they will just ask you to leave.
mattm7Not the worst case scenario
GryllzPoaching is sick and all but if your a true local you should respect your hill and just stay off it until they open.
I would recommend you just tour around it a bit. Maybe theres some side country you could get to
Is there a gondola at your resort that you could take up? Then just go out of bounds and your free to do whatever
VinnieFUnless they've groomed down the piles it's hardly worth the effort. Unless you bring your skates.
GryllzIf you do go, just stay out of the workers way.
They probably don't really give a shit but they kinda have to come talk to you, if they see you rippin down a run that's blowing snow
-skian-Yes they work weekends. And nights. As a snowmaker I couldn't care less if you wanna shred the whales. However it's my responsibility to tell you to stop. It actually makes me happy to see people ski our snow with early stoke. If you do go just don't be disrespectful, if they ask you to stop say sorry and come back if they shut down haha. And don't run over any snow hoses or electrical cords. For your own safety.
