Anyone sitting in their car waiting to get into t-line
What’re peoples thoughts on the gondola between Govy and Timberline? Been proposed and delayed for years but now that Timberline bought Summit that seems like a perfect base station for it so it now doesn’t have to go over homes like it was going to based out of Collins Lake.
Less of a shitshow on the road/parking, but most likely longer lift lines once you funnel more people up there. Pros and cons. Personally I feel like once the parking lot is filled the ski area is filled is as “fair” as you can get, and keeps lift lines somewhat reasonable, and I like how very little development happens in Govy currently
When I left at noon there was a line of cars halfway down T-line road. Every open piece of shoulder from the lower lot to again about halfway down had cars parked on it. People were walking up.
got there at 8:50 and were about 30 cars from the top, still didn't get in till 10. On the bright side lift lines down at the park weren't nearly as bad as the past 2 weekends

Paul.Last weekend before summer season starts plus memorial day weekend
But has it ever been like this before? I've been to hood in may many and its never busy, crazy how the amount of skiers in Portland probably doubled in the last year, maybe more.

Nah, I dont remember it ever being this bad. Pass sales this year broke records for all hood resorts cause it was the only thing people could do near portland with covid restrictions. The timberline lots were closing before 8am most weekends during January/February and lift lines on weekdays werent too much better
I was stuck in that mess Satuday. Got up early yesterday to avoid it
Were any of you guys in the part of the line that got heated as fuck? All these people started driving up the left side of the road, and dude in front of me was not having it and pulled his car out to create a roadblock. This made like a 3 lane clusterfuck where all sorts of people were screaming and banging on the windows of the people who were trying to cut everybody. I thought a huge fight was about to break out but somehow it dissipated after a few minutes. Shit was crazy, people were losing their god damn minds

Vibe on the hill is fine. Vibe on the road is and always has been trash. Everyone thinks they are entitled to get up the road no matter what time they slept in till. Simply not the case.
