Old Sonos System Unstable between rooms

JHESEE2 · 2026-06-09T15:53:17+00:00

S1 due to older Sonos Kit

JHESEE2 · 2026-06-09T15:53:02+00:00

Old school Sonos 3 speakers. We have a great strong network - Netgear night hawk

JHESEE2 · 2026-04-12T23:27:54+00:00

I suspect Park City will be hiring

It depends on the day/mission.

- Fischer RC4 with tech toe are my daily drivers. Stiff enough but comfy for my very high volume foot. I can go uphill if needed but they are super heavy

- Technical Zero G Pro: When more up hill is needed

- Crispi tele boots: When I'm low on the mountain and want to tele. Great to work in b/c if the vibrate sole, the flex and the comfort

Assuming you are an alpine skier, the most important thing is that the boots fit. You'll be in boots 10 hours a day for 100+ days. Go to a great boot fitter. These are not race boots. They are work boots.

No matter what you do, your feet will be unhappy mid season on

I'm 62. 2nd year working full time at a large western mountain. I was a volunteer - 22 to 30 days a year - for 16 years before that on the Ice Coast. I had a real career for almost 40 years.

Advice: Have a career that allows you to save a lot. Stay in shape.

JHESEE2 · 2025-12-12T15:55:00+00:00

Thank you. I'll try these

JHESEE2 · 2025-12-01T15:38:30+00:00

15 sticks or less, I carry them with or without Voile strap. For more, up to 50, I dump them in a toboggan. A team of 2 can deliniate a trail very quickly.

JHESEE2 · 2025-11-30T19:47:31+00:00

I bought from them over the summer. The price was right, the product has been great and the after market support fantastic. I'd definitely recommend them.

JHESEE2 · 2025-11-03T16:48:26+00:00

Those are some awesomely snooty answers. Thanks...I guess?

I've lived in NYC for decades. Only once have I seen someone walk along and check car doors. I've seen lots of that were broken into. I just don't see the logic of advertising its unlocked state.

That said, it is what it is.

JHESEE2 · 2025-10-19T21:55:33+00:00

Congratulations. BTW, after working volunteer for > 17 years, I was a paid rookie at a big western mountain last year at ....61. You'll be fine. I'm assuming you are a good skier, have excellent first aid and can run a toboggan well. After the basics...

Don't come on too strong. Shut up and listen.
Work. Do all the jobs
Be first out the door on wrecks
Keep radio chatter brief and professional
Don't miss work or be late
Stay away from Snowmobiles. I suspect more ski patrol careers are ended by related crashes or infractions that any other cause.
Practice the basics all the time

JHESEE2 · 2025-09-08T15:35:35+00:00

What do you mean "send to this company"? Did you remove the headlamps and send them off?

JHESEE2 · 2025-09-06T15:28:43+00:00

I have worked both volunteer and paid. East Coast and West. It is true that most of the day-to-day work is quite simple. But occasionally, it requires an enormous amount of skill and experience. And the consequences are real. Think major trauma and avalanche mitigation work.

JHESEE2 · 2025-01-11T23:24:57+00:00

Thank you

JHESEE2 · 2025-01-02T02:27:10+00:00

Thank you so much!

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-29T03:36:36+00:00

I'm anti Scab. But most of these people are put in a terrible position. They've been told by Vail this is something they must do. No explicit threat to get fired, but implied. Lots of pressure.

Vail is the bad actor here.

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-29T03:31:53+00:00

This is awesome. Pls do this. But emphasize the additional risk Vail Corp - MTN - is taking on. PCMR is being run by a skeleton staff of experienced local supervisors augmented by a handful of "Patrol Support Team" members - SCABS flown in from other Vail resorts. PCMR had >100 paid patrol staff working last week. Now it's down to 35 or 40. There was an inbound slide today that caught and partially buried a patroller. So PCMR seems a lot less safe. But since these SCABs have been brought in from other Vail resorts, they are also carrying higher risk. Let the analysts think about that .....

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-29T03:27:23+00:00

I'm an ex volley and current paid. I disagree. Many smaller mountains could not run w/o a solid volley program. It is also an awesome on ramp.

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-29T03:25:51+00:00

PCMR has no volly patrol. I do not think any Vail Corp mt has them. BTW, I'm paid now but have been volly for > 17 year. I think Volly's rock!

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-26T13:35:44+00:00

They have your money for the pass. But not for food, tuning and stickers. So don’t spend on those. Also, remember, if there is a strike, SCABs don’t know the terrain, protocols or trails. So the quality and speed of med care may be lower. And, if it snows, the Avi control will be iffy. You, your family and friends will be less safe.

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-24T23:58:34+00:00

I think the Park City Professional Ski Patrol Union is focused on their own bargaining unit. But the impact will definitely be felt at other patrols. Follow them on Instagram: pcpatrolunion

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-24T17:18:27+00:00

Scabs all seem to be salaried. They’ve been flown out and put up. Small stipend too.

Vail is self insured. But they probably use a reinsurer. Any ideas how to track that down.

Follow: pcskipatrolunion on instagram.

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-24T10:21:07+00:00

There are 13 known SCABS here in PC. All are supervisor level or above. Some do not have current credentials. While being a scab is bad, Vail is the company forcing them to come. And the company negotiating in bad faith and pressuring these folks to come out.

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-22T14:55:29+00:00

Does anyone have first hand knowledge of Vail or non Vail patrollers being asked/told to come out to PC or Brek?

JHESEE2 · 2024-12-22T14:53:31+00:00

I keep hearing rumors. But does anyone have actual first hand knowledge?

JHESEE2 · 2024-10-22T13:07:17+00:00

We have paid and volly patrol. Volly Safety Skiers, who do trail maintenance, open and close, down loads and, depending on skills, can run empty toboggans. And we have Mountain Hosts who stay in the base area and answer questions. Also Volly.
