Does anybody else have an irrational fear of this happening, or is it just me? I guess you could spin two hours on a chairlift into a beneficial experience. Maybe you hash out a fight with your significant other, you catch up on the posts here on Unofficial *wink wink*, or you have a crippling anxiety attack that you’ll never make it off the lift! Either way, it probably won’t be that bad. This does bring up memories of the movie Frozen that came out in 2010. It’s just a little bit different than Disney’s Frozen…
