The only annoying thing was the one security guy was hanging around a lot and he said they’re cracking down on tailgating next season
What!?!?!
Was there for closing day. Was awesome to see all the tailgating.
Are they really going to crack down on that? That would be a huge loss.

Windham was $175 a ticket for Sunday. We skied Platty for about $80.

Or shut off your money like Canada did with the truckers protest.
I hit Plattekill on storm Riley. Their CC system was down and all the other Catskills areas were out of power If you didn’t have cash you were “Denied “ to quote Suzee Orman . It was painful watching people turn away from 45” snowfall.
I was there. Incredible day.
Somehow me and my buddy both had cash.
Also incredible, we almost decided to ski Belleayre that morning because it was closer to our hotel, but then we said 'nah....platty is better...' thank god we did. Everyone else lost power....
Ski on all day in nearly 4' of snow.
Second night hotel called to tell us they had no power, so they put us up in the Roxbury, which is such a trip!
Following day, crowd was pretty big, and the snow set up thick. But what a storm....

We have one presumed neighbor that throws dog pee and poop pad bags into a local creek crossing.
Who picks up dog pee?

Yikes!
Were they crowded this holiday week?
Tough business to be in, so prices have to rise. But That's a tough pill to swallow - even thoughi 's easily the best mountain in the area.

For the record (just looked at the bank account) the Sierra Nevada Hazy whatever at the beer truck was $8.50 and not $4. Although I know I'm not going crazy because she said $4 and handed me a sierra mist originally. Assuming that's what she was telling me was 4 bucks. My bad.
They have a beer truck?

This thread got dark. In more ways than one.

Blue and CB kind of makes sense after the management merge.
But who knows. They already have Montage and Shawnee in the similar area.
Maybe 7 springs...

sounds like nice 1st day. Belleayre was also soft, spring condition snow. 5 ways down the mountain...incredible opening day in Nov really.

Maybe one day I will fly over at 8:03 or whenever you guys get to the top and can film you skiing down Challenge. Blue can ban drones but they can't ban aeroplanes.
That would be rad.
You guys should get a room.

Is the extra hour worth 80 dollars to you? I would think so but I like driving
No brainer if it wasn't WROD season, where we'll be done skiing in 2-3 hours...
But there are some great places for a later lunch in the catskills, so we'll probably do that....

We're at TLCITW opening up the cabin for the season. LE snow showers whitened the partially frozen ground (2"-3" deep), several times yesterday and last night the guns started blasting.
In the 34 years of owning TLCITW this is the earliest time I ever saw/heard them blowing....
TLCITW?

Friday for certain
Cool. We're gonna have a tough call...plan to be skiing friday. Have passes at Belleayre, but blue is so much closer...
2:45 drive to ski two trails for 'free', or 1:45 to ski two trails for $80 a head...
Why do I live in NJ again? WTF...

Tomorrow I am planning to fly over Bear Creek and Spring Mountain, and if my flying budget allows maybe I'll head up over Blue as well. I want to tour suburban Philly a little while remaining under the Class B 😬
Wow - do you guys have a gliding thread going? Curious to read about this endeavor...

what's the guess on opening day? Black friday?

Blue Mountain uphill capacity approaching Stowe Mountain Resort....

3/26/23…Closing day…sunny

FWIW, just checked my email and they sent me a survey. I of course gave them high marks, but in the final comment section explained that restricting tail gating next year would negatively impact my opinion of Blue.
I've never tailgated at Blue, but enjoy reading about Sausage Sundays...would be a real drag if they screwed that up for you guys.
