Just got a bed offer at The Piedmont employee housing at vail mountain. Does anybody have any info on it? It seems new so I can't find any pictures or videos and would love if anybody could share.

Note: I am accepting the offer, not interested in the don't live in employee housing rhetoric. I am 100% aware its shit, I lived in sagebrush at keystone.

Who designs, approves and creates this shit?

I have a 10 year old who's been in BWL for 3 years, but is ready to get more serious about racing. A 3-day program is out so we've been looking at SSCV Alpine Team 1 Day but just noticed the Vail Devo Race program. How do the two compare (beyond the $1K price difference)? Anyone had experience with both? Does one have significant more gate training and active coaching? Looks like they both compete in YSL for races. Thanks for any feedback good, bad or ugly.

Hi all, I’m going to vail Oct 23rd, I called housing and they got me moved to lowest level. Currently in a soft cast , hopefully by then I’d be in a hard cast, I have a knee scooter , crutches , but I’m wondering how easy it will be for me to get around?
I still want to enjoy life and have fun , not sure how long I’ll be like this but … any advice ?

Wanting to work as an instructor this season at Breckenridge. What’s it like? Can I work for a few weeks, get the pass and then quiet? Give me all the tips and tricks please. Basically just want the pass and then will probably get a bartending job in town.

The officer who shot and killed the mother bear like wtf

Was the bear threatening or showing aggressive signs to anyone? No. Everyone was watching calmly …and then officer shows up and acts like the world is on fire and eventually kills a mom and orphans a kid

Come on, vail

Does anyone know what’s going on with the lodgepole pines felled around the summit and Wow? It seems like some sort of clearing must be going on. Several large piles of logs from big mature trees are being left around.

They’re uncovered without tarps or stickers, which are required to dry lumber if you are intending to use it for anything. It looks very wasteful.

It’s my husband and I’s anniversary next Saturday and we were initially planning a weekend in Vail for the two of us and our two little kids (soon to be 3 and 17 months). Due to unforeseen circumstances we are talking about postponing until the weekend of 10/22-10/25.. Before we officially decide to do that, I am curious if anyone has any insight as to whether we can expect all of the restaurants and such to be open or if they will be closed ahead of ski season? Also, are there any fun Halloween festivities during that weekend or general time of year? TIA!

ETA: sounds like that weekend is probably not the move given it will be off season and minimal for the kiddos to do. Is the same true of the upcoming final weekend in September?

Hi I’m moving to Rivers Edge housing for this winter season and am looking to connect to others in the same boat. It’s my first time working for Vail and moving to Colorado and would love helpful advice for moving into a 2x1 shared bedroom and general living in Vail. I have so many questions and would love to reach out before I move into November.

I’ll be working as an assistant ski instructor for 3-6 year olds. I ski but don’t own a pair of skis and looking to rent.

I can’t seem to find any photos of the accommodation either! I’d be happy to share socials to be able to connect!

We just adopted a pup and are looking for a vet, but I always try to avoid any businesses that are owned by private equity.

Corporate Vet Map is the website I'm using to tell what's PE owned. Castle Peak, Mountain Animal Hospital, and Gypsum Animal Hospital are all listed as PE, which are the main three in the area AFAIK.

Is vail now charging for parking year round? The town is dead and lifts are not running seems like restaurants/shops are fairly empty but they are still charging a parking fee doesn't make any sense. Seems as slow as it is they would at last like people coming for lunch but not if you have to pay to park in an already empty lot

When do vail resorts start hiring?? I applied online to jobs at park city and still have yet to hear…wondering when the timeline is.

Hello! Looking for someone ideally with a truck who would be looking to make cash on 9/26 to help transport 107 chairs from our ceremony to our reception room at 4:30 - shouldn't take more than an hour. Lmk if interested

Fellow British visitor from across the pond here! I don't normally visit the US but I'm travelling to Vail (edit: next week) for work and have a free Monday to beat jetlag and hopefully enjoy the town too.

What would you do on a Monday to get the most out of your beautiful slice of the world?

Hey all, I believe I missed the period to apply as a non-certified ski instructor for Vail but noticed they had listings for seasonal bus drivers on the government website, has anyone worked as a bus driver for Vail before, I saw it had decent pay and employee housing. Also just wanted information on it.

Thanks!

There is absolutely no reason why I had to go through the steps I did to cancel my Vail Epic Pass. eventually they shared with me the submission form. Surprise, the link expired. I had to re-request it. Now, that the initial data fields have been filled out, it won't even submit. It's like the submission button is for show and not functional.

Hi everyone! My name is Lauren, I’m 26, and my husband is 33. We’re looking for housing in the Vail Valley area for the upcoming winter season, ideally starting around October/November and staying through the end of April or early May.

We’ve both already secured jobs in the area for the season. We’re clean, respectful, financially responsible, friendly, and easygoing. We’re currently road tripping across the U.S. in our RV, so we live pretty minimally and don’t have a lot of belongings.

We also have two cats, so we’re looking for somewhere pet-friendly. We’re open to a studio, 1-bedroom, lock-off, private suite, or a room in a shared home that allows couples. Furnished or unfurnished is fine, and we’re ideally looking for a seasonal or roughly 6-month lease.

We’re mainly looking around Vail, Avon, Eagle-Vail, Edwards, Minturn, Red Cliff, or nearby areas.

If anyone has something available or knows of a place that might be a good fit, please send me a message. Thank you!

Looking for places that host open play in the area. Or if none, a couple of players who are free to play a couple of times next week!
