@Manhattva It’s the Reason the buses were sliding off the road and struggling to drive through the slush. Totally unnecessary and dangerous. Routine snowplowing would remove the accumulation and keep the road surface safer.

@oefyy What does that have to do with a gondola? Gondola is don’t require plowed roads.

A gondola would never have these problems. People can be as mad as they want at me for saying it though.

@Manhattva Gondola would not be in service today as there was THUNDERSNOW

You seem to have never lost a loved one in a car accident. I’m tenacious and have no tolerance for this unnecessary and preventable fiasco. The road was unplowed and I saw 3 buses sliding and struggling in thick slush. All the tires chains in the world, won’t save you from a bus skidding into you. The road is mismanaged and neglected. Whether that is due to malfeasance, misfeasance or low IQ, it’s unacceptable and needs to change.

@oefyy @UDOTcottonwoods @UtahDOT @AltaAlerts @AltaCentral @SnowbirdAlerts You seem to be very triggered

⚠️ Crash Update ⚠️ SR-210: Bus at Upper Vault (MP 5.9) has been cleared. @SLCOsherrif & @UtahDOT have both lanes of travel open. Safe travels to/from @AltaAlerts @AltaCentral @SnowbirdAlerts this afternoon!

@UDOTcottonwoods @SLCO_OOTS @UtahDOT @AltaAlerts @AltaCentral @SnowbirdAlerts Completely inadequate and minimal snowplowing all morning. Crews need to be doubled up and more snowplows deployed to keep the roads clear and safe.

⚠️ Crash Alert ⚠️ SR-210: Bus stuck in uphill lane 📍: Upper Vault area (MP 5.9) @SLCO_OOTS @UtahDOT on scene, alternating lane. ‼️Expect intermittent delays to/from @AltaAlerts @AltaCentral @SnowbirdAlerts until clear.

I will never take another SpaceX launch for granted again. This is a masterclass in every way. We are so lucky to have SpaceX.

So much demand for a $3 Billion dollar Gondola that will require additional government employees = 22 staff per shift

Check out this skier stampede! Alta is buried in creamy powder and overwhelmed with skiers on spring break ⛷️⛷️⛷️ With so many visitors enjoying these peak conditions to haul all your equipment from a parked car to pay for a $60 8-mile gondola ride 🚠 will solve the crowds

Oh fuck yes

Long lift lines!

Thank NAFTA for that, which pushed the jobs and businesses into Canada/MX, destroyed the main street businesses and enabled America to be flooded with big box stores and cheap Chinese goods. Only reason Montpelier survived is bc it’s the capital filled w state workers and the government never goes out of business.

@wikimapper @oefyy @TimelessTrvlr Take a sharp right after you cross the bridge and the charm fades fast. We lived in VT for 10 years. So many towns have nice Main streets and nearby side streets. But go another street or two deep and most streets have houses in sore need of repair. Charming tourist veneer...

Montpelier, Vermont is America’s smallest capital....but with no chains, no rush, and bookstores, bakeries, and co-ops at its core, it feels like a place people actually choose to live, not somewhere built to impress.

@Cernovich @VegasMike27 Don’t forget the CARES Act that facilitated and prolonged the state lockdowns AND added $2.2 Trillion debt.

@VegasMike27 Yep.

During Trump's first term, he elevated Fauci, supported Covid lockdowns (even bitched about Georgia and Florida staying open), claimed Sweden would have a death spiral, did nothing to stop the BLM 2020 riots, and took the shot. None of us need treat him like an infallible god.

@TimelessTrvlr @wikimapper Don’t bother. He’s being facetious. It’s where the big box stores and fast food chains are located near the capital.

@wikimapper Will add to the list.

If a kid is old enough to die in another nation’s war, he should have every right to have strong opinions on it and on our foreign policy.

How awesome awe is this video. Here are a couple other pictures by @JarodMHamilton
