One more week until @mute1080, his friend Ryan, and I head out to JH!

Only lift running is Burma Chair. I was going to be first chair but I waited 20 minutes for them to tell me the six pack is going to take a while. The line iced up and the chairs were slipping. David was very nice telling me I’m better off taking the shuttle, but the SP3000 that came over on his snow mobile went with “get out of there, this side is closed, get out.” Drove to the top with one boot off and slayed vista, midway, to lower Main Street on frozen cord. Should soften up as the sun gets higher. Usually I would wait till after skiing for a TR but this lift is so Danny long, I was able to write this. Only other person I saw was Bethlehem Ford guy.

Lady at the ticket window told me earlier in the season that the 6th Grade Pass is actually a $99 season pass. 4th and 5th Grade PA Ski Pass is the one that gets you 3 passes to pretty much every mountain in PA along with 1 rental and 1 lesson. Costs about $30 and is a no brainer even if you use it once. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Found a new to me used gear shop with tons of stock. These get great reviews and 2 of my friends have them and love them. Have to take them to the bootfitter and get new inserts as ones that are in there now are custom and don’t fit my feet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The snow is firm and fast. Easily carvable and good grooming. The snow in the sun is perfect. It should get better as the temps rise. The glades shine. @Ski2Live Live2Ski Would love it!!!

Ya I ditched tapatalk years ago. The new(ish) mobile site is superior...especially because you can love.

Just a little icy out there this morning

Ha ha..

Snow was really nice today, sunny all day. I had a great day🙂

I skied for ever with custom footbeds cause I have crazy high arches and always had to have inserts for running (predisposed to plantar fasciitis) so I just assumed I needed for skiing. This year on a lark I removed them and found I liked skiing without them much better. Hard to describe why. Lower to the ski kinda thing? I dunno but I’m not going back to footbeds again

I hope the three of you have a great time.

No, website. Stopped using Tapatalk once the pictures mod was done and pics could be added via mobile web

You, Toast and Ryan should try to find him and fuck with him. Just for funsies.

The 8 o'clock hour is here. Buses are getting ready to pull out. Crowds starting to vanish. The snow is nice. This next hour should be good. Oh and Switchback is the shit. Eaf are you out here enjoying this?

Choppy but to be expected for a crowded night sesh. I'm like an excavator tonight... digging it

Pa (and CO) and prob other states offer a 6th grade ski pass that enables several free visits to local mountains for kids in 6th grade. Hoping that they will fall in love with skiing, then want to continue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And look how well it held

I thought this was going to be interesting. Doug posted it about Salty. WTF was I thinking? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sonic sucks. Sega sucks. Salty's car sucks.

Sonic 2 was the bomb. I can speedrun it in like 1 or 2 hours. Metal Sonic and giant robot Robotnik were soo much harder when I was 12. Now I can decimate them with my eyes closed. Sonic 3 was sick also but I got stuck on Carnival Night Zone 2 for several years at the infamous evil up and down barrel. Hydrocity 2 and Ice Cap themes, composed by Michael Jackson himself, are 2 of my all time favorite video game tracks. Last year I found out Ice Cap 2 is based on an 80s song called Hard Times by the Jetzons which blew everyone's minds. I did an epic run down Gondalier at Stowe on a Perday day with that song playing in my helmet speakers. Good times.

NMDW has some pretty big rollers and humps that make it fun like Sidewinder was. @mute1080 and @theprogram4 are here. So it cask man Steve. Good stuff.

i feel like there should be a waiting period between "the chairs are slipping" and "we're good to go"

It’s sweet. I’ve done it 2 or 3 times with a full moon at Sandia Peak ski area in New Mexico. Take the tram up, ski down and have someone pick you up in the parking lot. There would be dozens of other people there skinning and snowshoeing too. Like a little colony of night people when there’s a full moon.

Go for it or just give me money.

I laughed. Still enjoying schifdawgs cheese balls. They saved me from getting fast food on way home.

I’ll try to keep this short and sweet because I’m tired. I arrived at the lower lot at 640pm and it was around 40 degrees and was pretty crowded and first time this season I had to park a row over. About 16 buses. In the house were Atomic Jeff, PARidge and Johnny Law. Snow was sort of early springish and due to the amount of traffic pretty choppy with some natural and manmade Root rollers on many runs. Main Street was nice on the top and rough on the bottom, same with lazy mile. Paradise had the nicest snow just like on Thursday and unfortunately SP3000...me and JLaw received a lecture outside the scanners then my final run I waited for the patroller who lectures us to start on Paradise then when I got near I stopped then made lots of slow and deliberate turns with him skiing beside me asking if I was ok. Then at the bottom as I was taking skis off he asked if it was my last run and I didn’t answer then he said have a nice night. All in all a fun evening and almost the weekend!!!

You weren't the only one that got yelled at. I'm sure Doug will chime in shortly.

You don't ski it anyway.

Sharpen your edges.

Yay, live music in the Summit Lodge. Munching crowds in the Valley. The choice is clear.

With all the fresh you're getting cord must feel like a let down. I'd be happy to ski on a surface that I can hold an edge on at Blue later.

Correct. And unfortunately we end up in here.

I remember that..that was great.

How do you think the glades will be tomorrow? Asking for a friend thats going to ski tomorrow morning. Were you in the way of them marking stuff off? wait....they dont do that till long after opening. Seems like a friendly guy though.

The power of positive thinking Douglas. I can't wait to ski epic conditions tonight at Blue. I'll be sure to post all about it.

The epitome of laziness.

Tapatalk is good if you are using multiple forums. I found that the mobile site for PASR has more functionality and is just as easy to use as tapatalk. Especially since Jeff’s upgrades over the years.

I just loved that post from my phone

Plus you can't love from a phone.

Yea. We got pretty low standards around here

Cant be any worse than dim orange

Why don't you just drive up to your brother's hotel?

And if it’s like this season, an extra 30ish ski days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Top to bottom run.

And good beer. Oh, and lets not forget sausage sunday.

and VIP lines.

I was going to make a post about how you are still dumb after two years but I won't because I love you too much and I don't want your buddy Ryan to get mad at me before we all go off to JH.

JLaw would be upset if you got one!

That’s the anti atomic Jeff...if I can see through like 15% of my windshield I’m Gucci
