When someone is new on the chair or when people get tired and doesn't pay attention, I see this every day. I was on ski patrol and attended may chair accidents.

One thing a parent should do is not to try to hang on to the kids and the chair gains altitude. It is hard to hold on and you eventually let go. I have kids and grandkids and I usually push them away from the chair, not hold on to them.

I wasn't there to access the situation, but that is my take on the situation.

As far as Gunstock PR, it is a piece of work. I remember Bill saying the then new chair lift (Penny Pitou) was the best thing that ever happen to the area. I beg to differ. Three million dollars for a begining chair is a bit much.

Later, he boast that new and exciting things are going to put the area on the map! The zip line came and I don't find it exciting.

In the days Gunstock rocks. In the 60's it had one of the best expert trial in the East, Trigger, and one of the best racing trail, Fletcher Hale. Today it has nothing to boast about.
