“It is not protocol for us to stop the lift”. My daughter got hurt here today because they did not stop the lift when she fell getting off the lift and her snowboard twisted around her; they then had the audacity to tell me it didn’t happen and that they watched the footage and that the lift was stopped and my daughter stood up and boarded off. They lied straight to my face. I had them pull the footage again in front of me which showed they never stopped it and my daughter going down and board twisting around her because of it and then their response changed to it’s not protocol for us to stop the lift. I also requested a copy of the footage which they denied me. I went in and spoke to them about this so they could correct the girl operating the lift so it doesn’t happen to anyone else and they could have cared less. Someone is going to get seriously hurt at this mountain!! This was extremely disappointing and I highly recommend you go anywhere else if you care about yours or someone else’s safety. The people in the first aid area are fantastic though! So thank you to them for helping my daughter and actually caring.
