Don't know about that . . . Glad you had a good day, though . . .
cant imagine someone taking a lesson in there...we dont have tree runs where I work, but if we did, bet there would be rules against it. Instructor may need to size down his/her ski pants by 3 sizes from the sure fire butt chewing that must have taken place.
In trees....not much room for mistakes. Wonder if it was supposed to be more of a "guide" through the glades, but how do you sell that....unless you say it.

Weekend machismo was in full effect on Saturday---driven almost entirely by overzealous dads.
I just couldn't believe the number of kids on the bumps on SB lift line and Rumor who were near tears because they couldn't ski it. And every one of them was "accompanied" by a male adult (assume Dad) who is egging the kid on and saying "it's not that hard, just do it" or whatever.
It was really that Dad that wanted to ski that trail and not the kid, and the Dads should be flat out ashamed of themselves for forcing their kids to go with them. Be responsible for crissakes...
I even heard one Dad shout up at his son (who was crying) on SB bump line: "Quit crying, just point the skis downhill, and go". The kid's response: "I'm trying Dad but this is too hard." Dad just waited 100 yards down from his son and continued yelling back at him.
What the F is wrong with some people?

Heard from a ski patroller friend Sat. night that the injury was pretty serious and to expect a crackdown on off-the-map skiing. Hard to believe that an instructor was involved.jimmer said:
