If you like to camp there’s a nice spot behind the cliff in the video. Mount Pisgah behind North st in Jim Thorpe is our go to spot for overlooks.

My father-in-law used to live across the river from that spot. I would stand on his front porch many days and look at all the potential ski lines. When the D&L trail went in I was pretty excited of the possibility of skinning up to that point. I hiked (crawled) it a couple times. There’s a 10’ high rock spine with pine trees on both sides that went up in flames last night. In February if 2014 there was finally enough snow. My niece wanted to go but the day before she cracked a vertebrae at Blue and canceled.A couple hours later she called me back and asked if I had a backpack, so I carried her stuff, She’s one bad ass girl! We started at Weissport at 10 am and skinned up 2.5 miles and after a rest at the observation platform attempted to skin up but kick turns were difficult so we figured out if we put our back against a tree it was possible. The snow was perfect but we waisted a fair amount of vertical before figuring out how to ski it. I didn’t know at the time that one of my friends had 20 acres on the north side so now it’s a half hour skin up. I’ve hiked it a couple times with my son One really cool place! I’m thinking arson off the D&L after looking at the two places early on . IMG_0543.mov

Found a picture of my FIL in front. Latest word it’s done.

The one on the D&L trail a mile south of Jim Thorpe. No rain in the forecast and moderate winds the next couple days.

Rt209 shutdown though Packerton . The observation deck on the East side of the river is in danger.

Jim Thorpe fire, A Bc ski line of mine. Lots of big rocks. Photo from Justin Selig storm chaser.

Snowing again. I’ll be out in mid May but I doubt they’ll be open.

Actually 3” in the grass.

An inch at my place 😳 in Southern lehigh county. I’m at 860’ . Guess backyard turns this morning.

One of my favorite movie lines. Fingers crossed 🤞.

Was there anything left up top of sidewinder? Looks like no Friday this week. Support your local Amphibian

Mongo snow ball contest?

Turtle man was in the house later on and Ripped razors lol. Even a bump attempt lol Skied razors mostly and ventured over to watch a run or two. Amazing at how long the skimming line was. Rode the six once more to ski sleepy hollow, just had to hop one patch of ground. Bump crew gave up around 2:15 ish Awesome job from Blue this year! IMG_9148.mov
