I did talk to the lifty, and to her credit she tried to delay the woman from getting on the chair but it took a while for the patrollers to get there (which I totally get - those guys have better things to do than sort out lift line disputes) and ultimately I guess she felt like she couldn't hold her there any longer. She (the lifty) did tell me that they had been having trouble with that woman being rude to people all morning, so I guess it was just luck of the draw that I got rammed by the biggest human piece of crap on the hill. The patrollers did their best with the situation - one guy even got on a skidoo and went hunting for the woman (I had a picture of her I took with my cellphone) but the mountain is a big place and they weren't able to find her.
