  1. Since Ray passed away it's really hard to figure out if anyone is going to be there in the summer. He was always strict about making sure your open when your supposed to be open. I stopped up around three o'clock a couple of times (took off of work early) and it was a ghost town up there.

     

    Maybe they're trying to save money on wages so they can build a new slope!....... LMFAO!!!!!

  2. (How the F can you guys have Gaper Day drinking and skiing escapades while parked in the upper lot?)

     

    It's not like security is worth a damn. I remember skiing the day the Steelers played the Seahawks in the Superbowl There was like fifty people tailgating in the parking lot in front of the sliding doors.

     

    I think a change of venue might do yous some good

  3. & the snow was filthy. I hate filthy snow!

     

    Razors was clean and fast! The entrance to the sixpack (which broke down) looked like somebody knocked a porta-poti over and kicked it around.

  4. I am worried...the snow at Blue is dirty

     

    Great....... I love paying all that money to ski on shit! And all that natural snow was gone a long time ago!

     

    It also has to do with the fact that no ski area blows snow at the end of the season, there's no point.

     

    They made snow every other year.

     

     

     

    Hope the season passes are good for the waterpark!

     

    but the bottom 5 feet is man made.

     

    The only place that theres that much snow is the Park. And there is a ton of it there.

  5. Is it just me or does it seem like the snow is melting awful fast?

    Last few time I've been up it's been like skiing on mashed potatoes! The snow has been really dirty and (correct me if I'm mistaken) they haven't blown any real amount of snow in about a month.

    I have a feeling that if they don't make a move soon we are going to have an early close.(this would suck!!!)

  6. They have a little shack right next to the airbag where you can purchase tickets and even rent helmets in exchange for a drivers license or cell phone.

     

    Stopped by the shack with my little nephew they said we had to purchase tickets in the lodge. Maybe they just didn't want to work. I'll try again next time.

     

    Thanks

  7. No comparison, I have skied Blue since it was Little Gap and remember talking to Ray Tuthill many times. I think it is a nice mountain for pa. Elk's conditions are always much better, the base elevation at Elk is as high as the summit at Blue and is much further north. Blue still does not know how and when to groom and forget it on a weekend, Blue is ridiculous. Blue needs to keep expanding east to better the terrain. Elk has many more true fall line trails and skiis way bigger. Blue adverstises 34 trails or something? It is really more like 15 and of those, only challenge, razors and main street are real fall line trails.

    Blue needs to keep expanding east to better the terrain

     

    I agree...but it looks like they're going west instead. Seems they think Blue is gonna be some destination water park. At least they can't screw up the grooming at a water park!

  8. Seems Blue spent a shitload of money "improving" the whole place this year but neglected

    making any changes to the real basic problem causing areas like bag storage and lockers that lock.

     

    There is somebody new in charge of rentals, the new guy probably doesn't know how to fix the lockers. Or doesn't care. Instead of going to the ticket office or customer service go right to the General Manger's office (located between the two) that worked for me last year when the locker stole my money and wouldn't give me a key.

     

    I noticed the same thing earlier this year. Like every other locker was messed up. Why don't they have a courtesy bag check like they do ski check? This would solve a lot of problems.
