Bought a night pass for Shawnee on Liftopia for only $29. Since I've only skied at Blue so far this season decided to change it up, since I haven't been there in 2 years. May or may not eat at the same Chinese restaurant I used to stop at when I skied at Camelback. Cant wait to see how they altered my favorite trail there, Lower Delaware, with a terrain park.

Great report! I would have been there but decided to get my teeth scraped instead. Maybe tomorrow. -
I've been driving the turnpike for a long time and just realized it a few years ago. Here's a pic from phillyskyline.com. I actually stood on the Ridge Road overpass and looked through my binoculars, and then flew my drone there. Yeah, I like stupid geeky things like this.

Nice pics. In January 2013 I worked in one of those towers on the left for 8 weeks and had a similar view of 30th Street Station. The Comcast tower is visible around mile marker 37.3 on I-476 southbound, right after going under the Ridge Rd overpass. It's about 30 miles away from that point.

The Men's Journal says it is, so yes.
-
Nah the article came up on Facebook since I like Camelback.
-
Correct. Slow lifts but I still get approx. 35 runs in if I ski from 8-4.
-
I've always heard that Vermont I mean Elk doesnt do discounts except for groups.
-
The vertical drop is 162 feet less than Blue so you might not like it. Plus there aren't any double blacks and the black runs aren't very steep. But I always enjoy going there because the snow is good and I like the rural setting and almost nonexistent crowds.
-
I'm tentatively going.

There's a brochure for Blue Mountain the True Mountain in the hotel lobby here in Malvern, suburban Philadelphia. That's my boy Blue!!! -
Only 4 hours, 5 minutes and 25 seconds until the polls close and then we'll know for sure.

In the morning. By the time it's over all the fresh cord will be long gone, and there will be lines up the wazoo. Maybe I'll go to Camelback and write a report. -

Can't go Saturday b/c I have the dentist thing. Maybe Sunday if I'm feeling ambitious. -
Looks like I'll be going to Vermont after Vermont!
-
WTGAI. Maybe you'll have a mini Steeze soon. Still waiting on the roll call thread..
-
I remembered to update my stats for my MLK Day ski session! Now my stats are one step closer to being 100% accurate.
-
A. Yes if it's 2-8.
-
2-8 ok. Maybe you can start a poll thread.
-
Thanks, still waiting for your roll call thread. Maybe some day I can aspire to be the official back up person for if you're unavailable to post a roll call thread. You should have a second in line to fulfill that vital responsibility.
-
I'll go if it's that Friday. I'm off work and will be back from Vermont.
-
Cant make it, I'll be in Vermont.
-
Ok I'll make one when I ski at Camelback this season and I'll be sure to write a report.
-
Atomic says no and he's the king. Maybe some day I can start roll call threads when I'm as cool as you!
