My son at I skied Wolf today. I must say is was a bit disappointed - it was pretty crowded, total novices strewen about absolutely everywhere, and the lifts are really slow. I think Wolf would really bebefit from a dedicated begineer lift like Cat's Easy Way lift.
Even with the slow lifts, the lines didn't get too bad until the double chair derailed and was shut down. Johnny Goin, a manager, told me that the derail was caused by someone falling while loading the chair, the attendant pulled the chair to the side to keep it from hitting her, and the cable derailed. I heard people saying they'd been stick for more than an hour and 15 minutes. The following pics shows the rescue:
As you can see below, the list line for the quad got real long, real quick
I complained to Johnny Goin over the general disappointment of the day and he did give me two comp tickets. I'm not even sure we'll use them - it just wasn't a very good experience. We enjoy Cat MUCH more.
When we left at 2:00, there were cars parked all the way down to Punchon F o r k (why is THAT profanity?) Road and even a ways along it - I guess it was just a REALLY busy day.
