The one in particular that caught my eye was a $25 adv/intermediate lesson. You guys should follow up with posts in their forums. http://www.coppercolorado.com/winter/mountain/bb will get you there, and luckily you don't need flash. What is amusing to me is that it is such a simple thing to send a multi-part mime email so that text people can get their text, and html people can get the visual stuff. Oh well, I never proclaimed that they get it. Actually, I can live with this, though it's annoying. I can pipe it to a browser; I can use urlview to find the links; I can save it to a file and view it that way. It's freaking annoying, but it's livable. What ****ed me off royally was discovering an email request to do something online -- ie, SPAM -- sent to an address I'd only used in signing up for the WP fourpass. I just *knew* this would happen. I emailed the WP administration and informed them that I'd been considering getting a season pass next year, but now, forget about it. They did respond with some concern, but I'm still getting these stupid things, and I don't think they understood the problem, really. Why don't companies understand? When I say I don't want unsolicited email, I don't just mean everyone else -- I mean YOU, too! I don't want to hear about ways that I can help you figure out your demographics. I don't want snow reports. I don't want ANYTHING I don't specifically request. Grrrr. -- monique |

Or in this case, an e-mail telling me about all this cool stuff, but fail to tell me about the cool stuff. Actually, if you get the same mail I do, it was (is?) pretty cool stuff. Free "buddy" lift tickets at Copper or WP on weekdays through January was the big one. Limit two per season pass, though they don't seem to check. We have 4 season passes and lots of friends. |

Loveland, if you love to ski. If you love to ski, ski Loveland. Loveland, it is right at the divide. Loveland, closer, higher, better. They have had many classic advertising slogans. Another memorable one: "The tunnel is such a bore". Mike... -- Littleton, Colorado (reply to msaemisch at yahoo dot com) See my ski photography at: http://PowderDay.us Carpe powder-diem |

Maybe we should have a "lamest ski area slogan" contest. Anyone have another entry? That's easy. The absolute lamest, and it goes with the ski area perfectly is: "Alta is for skiers" Lame, lame, lame. Just Like Alta. -klaus |
