That was rad. They should at least be on RTMs, preferably 170 length.

That's some siiiick perd. Booting indoors is for gapers, I ain't got no time for that. Looks like some Jerry fell around the 23 minute mark. @NastarGlennlikes to yell "Jerry" whenever he see me off in the distance, or someone that looks like me with a red hoodie.

@GrilledSteezeSandwich I accidentally took this lyfestyle shot yesterday with my Jitterbug cellular device. This could be an album cover for a CD-ROM.

How was the rest of the skiing ? Back in the day it could get absolutely mobbed there but it seems like of late that's not the case ?
River Shot and Challenger were grate. Lots of nice, soft snow in the sun. No sugar piles or sand dunes like at Blue the True. Stood in like 2 minutes tops, the rest of the time was basically right on the lift. Even got to ride solo many times. I've never seen so many people on River Shot, though - seems super popular this year. Saw some noobies were struggling to get down, and witnessed a few wipe outs from the lift. Wait til Floyd's open - that's going to eat those noobs alive.

My Trip Report is missing crucial details on a topic even more important than bathrooms... The parking. I was distraught to see large, new "Slope side Parking" signs leading through the muddy bumpy dirt road to my favorite parking area. That used to be the best kept secret of Jack Frost - New Jersey gapers park across the street and I get slope side access. Now every Tom, Harry and Richard knows about the slopeside parking. I had to walk an extra 15 yards each way to my car due to the gapers taking all of my spots. Plus the super muddy lot soiled by freshly washed automobile which is totally not cool. It is rad that slopeside parking is still free; I was expecting to have to pay something dumb like fitty cents, so Epic has got that going for them which is nice. Overall I give the parking situation a 7.5/10 and bathrooms maybe a 6.25/10.

@saltyant nice report. Next time go in the woods or don’t wash your hands. What did you do after skiing that you had to change into your street clothes?? Perhaps you had jury duty
Thanks. I made a 2.73 mile hike near Francis E. Walter Dam. It was so dam rad soaking in that blue sky after such a harsh winter. I got super hangry during my hike and stopped at Wawa for a delicious jalapeno pretzel and hot honey chicken wrap. @theprogram4 have you tried Wawa's hot honey chicken wrap? They really hit the spot at a rugged 2.73 mile hike.

Jack Frost was grate. Skied 830-11. Bathrooms suck though, actually had to stand in line to wash my hands. What's up with that? Changing into my street clothes was a hassle. The stalls are so small. This mountain makes me grateful for the big wide open expanse of the Blue Mountain (the True Mountain) snowtubing bathrooms, where space for changing is plentiful.

@saltyant you have so many different choices for skiing with your combined camelback/Blue/Jack Frost/Big Boulder pass. Plus you like trains I think.
This is mostly correct. When you decide to go to Big Boulders, I'll give you an Epic buddy voucher pass. I think you get $3.50 off and maybe a voucher for an extra small hot cocoa.

What a freakin' joke. Looks like Jackson Frost tomorrow it is!

Sounds like you put in a long session. WTGAI..The last time I was on lower sidewinder was when there was a $20 bill under the lift a few seasons ago. It’s just a run I don’t care for.
I agree 💯. I always skip lower sidewinder. Unpopular opinion: don't care much for upper sidewinder either except the top of it is radical. Intersection at the bottom is too much of a PITA.

Ps. I discovered a new trail at Camelback I had never seen before called "Scarab".
Been around for a coupla years. I think it's another option to connect both sides of the mountain resort.

@saltyant how has Mount Snow been? I saw Okemo received 6”
A few more pics. Boy I lucked out. Skiing in southern Vermont has been infinitely better than anything in Pennsylvania this season.

I’m glad to hear this cause I was worried people would think I’m a Karen if I say something
You should definitely complain. I don't give two craps if people call me a Karen, Johnson or Jim-Bob. If you don't complain nothing will change and the incompetency will continue unnoticed. At my hotel house the other night, I immediately complained to the corporate office after having to move rooms due to their contractors' loud, annoying construction right above my room at 9 o'clock PM.

@GrilledSteezeSandwich can you believe @tarponhead has this picture saved on his phone? I think this is probably one of his top 20 favorite photographs of me
