On that note i have heard a story that once a few years ago mad river had no problem with snowboarding on the mountain, then when a shareholder mention they should be only alowed on certain days this got the riders very upset and they swore and yelled at the certin share holder, obviously upsetting the person, because these snowboarders were no doubt out of line. If this is not a rumor why should others be punished or why doesnt mad river only allow boarders of a certain ability on the hill, the would be a bit hard to monitor, but if they are worried we will scrape off all the snow they could do it. I just find it unfair that snowboarders are not allowed certain places even as a avid skier and rider. Maybe one should create a board only resort?? that would be contradicting myself, but it would be pretty intresting.. Anyways, it would be great to know the full story.Thanks - ian - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SkiVt-L is brought to you by the University of Vermont.
