With a scale? What about nuts like some of my friends that think nothing of riding a VP free **UP** a trail? I'm curious.. no mention of IMBA in regads to the Forest Circus legal/illegal trails issue, are they not involved? Illegal trail builders take note. I do know the liability thing is a real bummer - there's a trend in the ski industry in regards to the courts to keep turning it back to the individual and not the corporation....(like the drunk guy in Vail who plowed into a kid's ski class, he's personally liable for the injuries, and not the ski area; he also did jail time) Penny |

So what if the back of their $22 ticket said "at your own risk".... penny |

I hope that this does not put allot of downhillers/shuttlers on trails like Wt. Wilson and San Juan Trail...bad for those of us who climb those trails. |
