Went to Winter Park for some uphill today. (Pic not me). Conditions were nice! It’s a weird vibe skinning at a resort. Lots of people whizzing by out of control, one guy wiped out near me. Still a good cardio workout, but not sure I would go back for it. Always nice to be outside no matter what. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

skiing on christmas is the best! Without any kids, I've had a riutal of skiing with my brother and his fiancé. We've done Wolf Creek, Alta, Loveland, and others. Crowds are low, especially in the morning. This year, hoping to ski Arapahoe Basin on Christmas Day before my blackout days kick in.

@toast21602 weather has been super dry and backcountry snow is pretty bad right now. There is snow moving in tonight through Saturday. I had planned to do a tour w a group on Sunday at Berthoud Pass but now rethinking that since everyone will be out right after the snow. Plus I70 seems to have some construction back ups that totally sucked today. @Mixilplix super easy going up a groomed run. Only hassle is you have to stick to the extreme side of the trail so when it starts to get steep you can’t make your own line and switchback up. Just have to embrace the suck and go straight up the fall line.

we do some heavy lifting!

Bahahah and the skier chicks I’ve met in Jackson hole are badass. After the lifts close they go to yoga classes or make Kombucha..much to Atomic Jeff’s dismay they wanna hear about the Doug Lyfe. On the one gondola ride two 30something local chicks were all intrigued by chubby east coast tombstone selling non Hanukkah celebrating jew middle aged boy and Jeff said,”don’t get him started” lol

Was by the Philly art museum last night The snowflakes were huge

I would guess that they are operating under whatever class of business an amusement park or botanical garden is. Hersheypark and Longwood Gardens are both open

And likely came from someone who had absolutely no intention of skiing anywhere this weekend let alone blue

Woo hoo, I found my season pass! Ready to ski!

Blue totally needs lotside delivery services. I need to clear my morning schedules.

Online, parking lot delivery would be incredible for the days that your mobile kitchen isn't there.

If anybody wants a snack in the lot I’ve got you.

Got all my shit ready to rock and I'm hype. Realized ski totes have a max waist around 95, sad.

Could be accurate. Although the only fitness I get at Blue are 12/16oz curls in the lot.

You're no fun.

No, I actually get it cut inside the snack bar at a high school sports gym.

I don't have a beagle... but I have a puppy who is fluffy and super cute. He'll be at the parking lot on Saturday and makes a great photo op if anyone needs a new tinder profile pic.

I was just at buckmans bought two new pairs of ski socks, two neck tubes and an on sale pair of low light Oakley A frames. It was busy in there.

They should use their mobile slopeside van to drop shit off. Just label the rows and have a pickup location at the end of each. Will it happen? Who knows. But I'd love to see it.

This actually makes my holiday shopping a lot easier. I'd love to give these places support now by getting gift cards. I usually get my mom a big wegmans gift card but she is getting a bunch of local eateries in Bethlehem now that she can walk to and pick up from.

I’d support them. Tomorrow I’m buying a couple hundred in gift cards at Youells in allentown...I like restaurants a lot so don’t wanna see them go under.

Dibs on cashews

They replied. Unaffected except eateries.

Haha pulling back more layers. More into it out here. Especially since I have friends that actually want to ski. Winters in NJ were pretty boring with the ladies in town, lots of candle parties. Lol. Nobody ever wanted to do anything fun. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m so excited⛷. I’ll be there tomorrow, not sure about who else in my crew.

This is the absolute best response.

"Haaansel...Haaansel"

The value in a season pass is unreal.....I was a pass holder/employee at BC for over ten years...and there is no parking lot scene....They would never allow it......Just buy the pass....

I bought a 12 pack of 12 ounce cans and a four pack of 16 ounce cans and the cashier at Weis made me go in line twice cause I had 208 ounces and the limit is 192 ounces. Gotta love PA

I'm going with Fitness Facility: Gyms and Fitness Facilities Indoor operations at gyms and fitness facilities are prohibited. Outdoor facilities and outdoor classes can continue, but all participants must wear face coverings in accordance with the Sec. of Health’s Updated Order Requiring Universal Face Coverings, including any subsequent amendments, and practice physical distancing requirements.

I don't think skiing is considered an outdoor gathering otherwise would be at 15% capacity before

I would guess they are just going to double down on outdoor seating

You've met us all, right?

Do you get your haircut in a casino? I got mine cut today too. Gotta make sure my helmet fits.

It’s the first time Burma road has been open on opening day since any of us started skiing. Lazy 1.6 kilometers has been open on opening day before.

I bought a new helmet - mine was really old too (probably close to a 2001 helmet). It was a Cyber Monday deal I think - I only paid $ 79 on Evo.com, but it's $ 130 now https://www.evo.com/helmets/smith-mission-mips-helmet#image=135799/713002/smith-mission-mips-helmet-.jpg I went cheap and did the wired Outdoor Tech chips helmet speakers...if they crap out then I'll get a wireless pair, but $ 10 for the speakers was cheap

Yup and then also the dumbass’s who say you can’t get Covid if you eat a hamburger with your beer or before 10pm

Calling the grand wizard of this site a ding dong could be a mistake.

How about a new helmet?

You should ski bear creek if they are open.

My gut tells me this year will be a loss for ski resorts, so the revenue will need to be recouped over the years to come. We all know that skiing is expensive for the person that goes 3-4 times a year. But has anybody ever rented a waverunner for an hour? in comparison, skiing looks cheap.

Somebody said earlier they hate snow and that’s so disrespect to a white boy canadian regaee group.

Does anyone know if snowtubing will be open this Saturday so I can park in the lower lot after skiing to ride my bike??

I just saw this wow https://www.health.pa.gov/topics/disease/coronavirus/Pages/Guidance/Sexual-Health.aspx

even at the price for a 4 hour session, if you got your pass locked in at the end of last year, you've gotten your money's worth in 6 days. i didn't think the price was bad to begin with, but you're right; it seems like a steal now. really hope these price hikes aren't permanent, but i don't see anyone making skiing cheaper next season. as much as we may hate dealing with crowds, first timers, bus groups from new york, etc., it sucks when you're priced out of doing something. i feel like @Schif probably has the numbers on this, but i'm curious how day ticket and season pass prices compare with rate of inflation and percentage of average median household income year over year. pretty stoked i have a solid job, bought a season pass, and am gonna be skiing on friday.

Just my Interpretation of the Situation....reminds me of Outkast.

Nice start to the morning.
