7 Springs owner Bob Nutting to purchase competitor Hidden Valley

Here's the press release:

I'm not sure if this is good or bad news for local skiers as a lot of 7 springs regulars are fed up with what Bob has done at springs. The only potential benefit I can see is 1 pass for both resorts.

well fuck...

what has he done to piss people off? Seven springs looks awesome, at least the park does.

 

[OGHolliday]

how can an urban style park in pennsylvania piss people off?

 

[Miomo]

What does ranch dressing have to do with skiing?

For park riders at HV it's good because springs has some of the sickest parks on the east coast and u can count on Bob making the HV parks much better. However, if u don't ski park, all u have to look foward to is more expensive left tickets

Old farts on epicski who get upset when their precious blue groomers are taken for parks

 

[treebeard]

more like, (comparatively) tiny east coast resorts charging almost $100 for a lift ticket

 

[SPUTnik.]

You sir, are hilarious

This will be so much better because if they open Laurel Mt back up they could do like a whole park specific mountain like Big Boulder (in the poconos) and then the park rats and family people would never have to clash

Hidden Valley is more of a learn to ski, family oriented kind of place. It would piss people off if Nutting turned it into one big park. And Nutting has done a number of things to piss us off. For one, a season pass is 450$. And he has turned everywhere outside of the parks to shit. Nutting likes to use the eletric less-efficient snowmakers, that cost 10x more than the old fashioned ones. And you can all thank the park crew for the Streets and the rest of the awesome terrain park at 7 springs.

I'd be mad if someone Nutted in my ranch too.
