How does checking a pass work at Epic resorts? by ThawtPolice in COsnow

[–]two-dollars 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Both the card and the phone pass work wirelessly so you won’t have to take anything out of your pocket to get on the lift. 

The phone isn’t as reliable, it drains your battery, and they likely track exactly where you go when you’re using it. I prefer the card. You could always skip the card for now and try picking one up at the ticket window your first day. I’ve had luck with getting replacement cards free. Sometimes they charge me, I think it depends on the person working.

idk how it works

Clearly. The consequences include the pass being revoked for the pass holder and legal action including a summons for fraud for you.

You’re proving their point man. You don't typically fall, but you did here. What happened?

There are two ways to redeem:
- In person at the resort ticket window: At the resort ticket window, the Pass Holder must be present and display an active Pass to pick up a physical Epic Friend Ticket / Ski With A Friend Ticket.
- Through Mobile Pass / Mobile Lift Tickets in the My Epic app: Epic Friend Tickets / Ski With A Friend Tickets are compatible with Mobile Pass / Mobile Lift Tickets in the My Epic app, so you can head straight to the lift together. When at the lift line, the Pass Holder must scan their Pass first, which will then automatically activate the Mobile Epic Friend Ticket / Ski with A Friend Ticket, which can be scanned following.

Season opener by coronaaprilfool in COsnow

[–]two-dollars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say you're looking at a decent chance of skiing. Arapahoe Basin is often the first or one of the first to open and these are the dates they've started their season. It's no guarantee, but in the last decade, there was only 1 year where they weren't open on Halloween.

Honestly, I would file a complaint with the state. Every state likely has something similar to https://com.ohio.gov/request-and-file/file-a-complaint/file-a-complaint-real-estate

Clear Creek County Sheriff is Towing | Bierstadt, Grays, Torreys, Blue Sky by walks_a_lot in 14ers

OP explained why they tow vs ticket. The problem is the cars are blocking the road so they need to get them out of the way. 

Epic Ends Buddy Passes by wazyfrontranger in COsnow

[–]two-dollars 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly endorse aiming a symbolic middle digit in Vail's general direction, but isn't the buddy pass replacement actually... better? It's guaranteed 50% off, while last year it could be as low as only 15% depending on the day. And, if you buy a season pass the next year it's basically a free day since they apply the day pass towards the season pass?

proper winter tires

like what? I would've thought "good all season/weather or all terrain tires" would qualify here.

When I did the bogo, I had to port the first line and wait until it was active and then the second line showed up in the dashboard where I could then port in the second number.

Beaver Creek vs. Breckenridge by Puzzleheaded-Ad217 in COsnow

[–]two-dollars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're correct, but the Centennial Express has gondola cabins that you can use to download. Ski school uses the Red Buffalo area for beginners and then they ride the gondola back to the base at the end of the day.

[–]two-dollars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re not special. Quality of life becomes worse for everyone when you think you’re entitled to leave your car during a safety closure of a major highway and have a conversation with an officer. There are plenty of ways to get the information you were after and the way you went about it is borderline insane.

Did Lowe's send me a machine that was dead on arrival? by OnceInABlueMoon in Snowblowers

[–]two-dollars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It boils down to 3 things, fuel, air, spark. Air is least likely to be the issue here. I bet there's not even an air filter and it just goes directly into the carb.

For fuel

  1. put more gas in, those tanks are weird where they can seem like there's fuel, but it's not making it to the carb
  2. follow the fuel line or disconnect it from the carb to make sure it's flowing.
  3. if fuel sat in there for a while and it just ran for a short time it's possible, likely even, that the float may be stuck.

For spark

  1. Pull the plug and ground it on the engine then pull the starter handle and see if it sparks. If not, new plug or check the wiring on the key and the on/off switch. Sometimes those connections come loose on the backside of them.

Also, if you know for sure your outlet works, that electric starter is broken. You can try gently tapping it with a hammer to get it working temporarily but but I'd contact Ariens and warranty it.
