Today, while going up a ski-lift I accidentally dropped my ticket. The ticket I needed at the top to come back down. I had to hike down the mountain in flip-flops. FML

Why are you in flip-flops on a ski lift in the first place?

If you're going to be on a mountain, you shouldn't be wearing flip-flops. End of discussion.

This story makes no sense. If you're going up a ski lift, why are you wearing flip flops? Also, they don't ask for tickets on the way down, because if you managed to get on it in the first place obviously you have the ticket. Also, people usually don't go down using the ski lift anyway. :/

Lol @ everybody not udnerstanding. You go up in flip flops because its what everybody does, or dunks or vans or whatever. You're wearing ski socks and your flip flops cuz its comfortable and u dont want to change into ski boots while going up cuz u gotta walk. Dropping ur ticket suuuuucks, but why couldnt u get a ride in one of the trucks that go down? The snow is only at the top, people. You go UP the chair, then DOWN the chair *downloading* cuz u cant ski down it. And ya, they ask for tickets on the way down. This kid is def at Momentum/Camp of Champions, or just at the public park up there. Could also be just at the top enjoying the view, but people dont usually go in flip flops, but when i was at COC last year most people wore flip flops up the lift

Holy mother of god, most of you are so mentally incompetent. Consider the possibility that she wasn't skiing and the weather was great. All right? Fantastic. Depending on the mountain, it must've been total hell walking down in flip flops.. practically tripping over yourself the entire way. FYL.

I'm guessing you were at grouse mountain?

why were you in flip flops? and why would they make you get a ticket to go back down when you used it to go up.. that's like paying to go up the stairs to a water slide and then paying again to go down it.. stupid and were you not going up to ski?

be glad you did not drop a flip flop

Well, lets look at this, the OP posted from Canada, and by Canadian law the mountains are for anyone, the tickets are needed to use the lifts, so ticket checks are ALWAYS at the bottom, therefore making this story null and void.

You don't know what you are talking about. First of all, the mountains don't belong to anyone. Marmot, Lake Louise, Whistler, etc. are all private property, owned by the operating company. Second, they check the lift tickets during the summer at the top and bottom because some people choose to hike up the top and then take the lift down or vice-versa.

well then they should just have tickets that are for going up and down. not just up.

WHERE YOU AT WHISTLER? PS: Kids, it's Canada. It's summer. We climb mountains. Sometimes we just want to get to the top of mountains, breathe, then come down and we do that using our ski lifts. It's A-OKAY. No need to panic.

why were you wearing them at the snow? and isn't it illegal to put another human in a situation where you are in endangerment of things like frostbite n shit? and their called thongs
