I am being a pure hypocrit by writing this since tourists feed intrawest with money to run lifts and fill some very large pockets as well, but what are some non-aggressive ways to make the gapers not come back?

I don't want to be an absolute asshole to anyone, I mean most of the tourists stick to the groomers so it's not a powder problem, but rather a crowding up the lift lines issue.

Sure I could put some skins on and go shred the BC to get away from that, but I'm broke, and I really wouldn't mind at all if Intrawest had to close down all of their on-mountain amenities and half of their chairlifts, since their'd be plenty more fresh left and a lot less crowds.

So do I carry a gun with me, dress up as a sasquatch, talk about the human meat chili served in the rendez-vous, push people off the chairs?

What are tbe solutions to make W/B become a small skibum-fed resort again?

Don't take this too seriously by the way, I'm having a great time as things are right now.
 
I think we should have an intese locals only attitude, like surfers do. You see a tourist cruising their way through the park POW! See some gaper droping in off Peak to Creek POW! I mean, if they can't ride the WAVE to the hill then they've come from too far. POW!
 
speaking of sasquatch suits, i caught a glimpse of someone in a sasquatch suit at whis on saturday, and i was like wtf, that's awesome.
 
I saw something better than a sasquatch suit. 2 days ago I saw a telemarking SNOWBLADER. What the fuck! He was ripping with no poles down this mogul field under excellerator. I really wish I had a photo... seriously. :(
 
I may know the guy who's been rocking that sasquatch suit up at whistler the past couple of weeks.

I definitely know someone who owns one. I think I might ahve to borrow it.
 
GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!

No, the tourists who don't suck aren't really considered as "tourists" in the general sense of the term.

Just make sure you warm up on the groomers all morning because the coastal snowpack is denser and the snow is funky, you wouldn't want to tear an ACL would you...
 
oh my fuck!! that is the TELE-BLADER, and he knows thats his name now, he rocks the moguls under solar almost every day.. be sure to heckle that weirdo.
 
ummm i was thinking about that the other week.

How do you get the mountain to shut down. If there was one perfect way to do it. how?

 
That is a possibility...

but i was thinking it has to be done in a way that nobody can really explain it. It has to be bullet proof.

 
Does anyone else feel pain when you watch a tourist come up to a jump with half as much speed as you need to clear it, and knuckle the shit out of it??
 
and even though you hear the tower creaking and making noises all day, don't report anything.
