Ok. It just wasnt the same at True Blue without you today.

I rode the lift with Johnny Law, NMSki, Toast, Atomic and Matt Edge. That's the order from left to right and I was between Johnny Law and NMSki. But no, I didnt ski with anyone other than on Homestretch when Atomic snuck up on me and tried to pirate my ski poles, and ended up crashing. The video footage must be saved on their webcam archives.

Yeah I like to get right on the snow while it's good. That's one extra run on fresh cord compared to having to ride the lift first from the lower lot.

I always sit somewhere unless standing is a requirement. In fact I'm sitting on a bench at Wal-Mart right now. I'm more of a Top Lot kind of guy, as the lodge is a lot nicer and there aren't any deep craters in the parking lot. But I still visited the lower lot when it was 900 hours and knew to look for Atomic's bright orange pants from the lift.

Hey all; just concluded another fun session at Blue Mountain, the truest of mountains. Representing PASR were Atomic, Toast, Johnny Law, NMSki, M-Bike-Ski, Matt Edge, Philly Core, and many, many, many others. Pulled into the Upper Lot at 0744 hours and not many cars were parked there which was surprising. Made it to rope drop with 7 minutes to spare so I sat on the lounge chairs to save my leg strength. First run down Midway was mad steezy. First run down Main Street was mad steezy. Both runs had wall to wall corduroy which was fun to ski. Then Lazy Mile was also quite steezy. Paradise sucked hardcore and was barely skiable. By far the most horrendous run of the day. Burma was OK. Falls was rad. The highlight of the day was when the PASRs appeared out of nowhere and Atomic made an attempt to steal my ski poles on Homestretch, and he allegedly crashed in that attempt though I didnt actually witness it. This is all hearsay from Atomic. Maybe next time he will snatch my ski poles on Homestretch but today wasnt that day. I'll be extra cognizant of my surroundings on Home Stretch from now on and watch for potential pirates. Called it quits around 1016 and had cold frozen coffee in my car. Overall a decent day, JADIP, Ice is Nice, Dress like a Cosmonaut.

I skied Camelback one New Years Eve and it was great. There was no one there. I dont party or do anything differently on News Years Eve. Usually asleep by 11 pm. Wow I am exciting.

You dont lock your car? No wonder Toast gets inside.

Nope just off on the weekends and New Years Eve

I'll just to tomorrow morning instead and ski some fresh cord on FirstTraix. I'll never forget last year when I left Camelback after 2 runs because it was so awful out.

Thanks. I was just considering night skiing but changed my mind. Most people here dont mind bumpy but I really dislike those conditions. I figured the snow would be bad after the warm temps and rain, maybe I'll go tomorrow morning.

That's the worst costume ever.

One time you posted a meme of the Three Amigos and said myself, Live2Ski, and Eaf were the Three Amigos. I was honoured.

Perhaps. Might go night skiing, IDK yet. Never saw the 3 amigos but I looked it up when you posted the meme. I think Chevy Chase was one of the amigos.

How do you sort of ski with him? I sort of ski with Root while he's several football fields ahead of me.

I didn't know you dive. Do you do diving daily? Are you scared of sharks? I'm not a big fan of the water and would worry the air tank would stop working or something, or that I'd get trapped in coral in The Great Barrier Reef.

Maybe you'll get to ski with Eaf! Just like when we got to ski with him at Blue that one night. Now we just need Live2Ski and it will just be like the 3 amigos!

Eaf's my bro. We met at Jackson Frost on New Year's Day 2018 and I showed him my crazy good carving skills. And I got to see him ski on his Atomic skis which was basically rad. Maybe we should start calling him AtomicEaf.

It was pretty good. Only logged 2,904.8 miles on the bike this year, compared to 4,475.8 miles last year. I'm certainly not the best biker on this Site as that award goes to GS Sucks. I just ride for fun and not competitively.

I love how Eaf's first post since summer solstice is a troll post. This is going to be a great season.

Where have you been? I've missed your posts as I was reading some from last season. How was hiking at Blue today?

Well you see I'm well aware of White Lighting, as I'd seen it numerous times from the base of Phoebe Express, but it was a Perder Day and I was feeling exceptionally confident. What could go wrong? Young whipper snappers ski the White Lightning on a daily basis. Upon approach it was groomed and flat and looked very easy. Then suddenly a 40 degree drop, and moguls the sizes of yurts dissuaded me from descending on RTMs. One day I will return and conquer the White Lightning (no I won't).

I used to buy night passes for Montage for only $18 or something from Liftopia. Now they no longer offer them and charge $39 for night skiing Thursday thru Sunday, which I feel is too much especially when Blue only charges $35 for night skiing and you get so many more runs in. If I ski Montage I pay $30 for Monday thru Wednesday.

My 170s fit in my car. That's the reason I went with the 170s. I dont like bike/ski racks due to the risk of theft.

Maybe some day but for now I'm fine with Vermont. It's so much easier just loading the RTMs in my car and driving as opposed to dealing with the airline complexities.

Maybe I'll go to Stowe again in February. I was just watching some Stowe stoke videos on YouTube. My trip last year was rated 10/10 so Steeze may get another epic trip report.
