2/15/25…lots of PASRs..calm before the storm.
Mixilplix replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
First three maybe four runs were super fun...You could actually see the multi dimensional snow first time Side...Raceway/Midway/LM were quite good...along with Switch..But the bottom seemed to fall out in quickly..Everything seemed to become icey/scratchy or you were dealing with the thickness of the sugar..Still fun to be on the mountain and riding. -
I've always renew at guest services and use my $50 card from last year towards the new pass...They just needed the email for the card number...Haven"t turned me down yet...

What rig ya get?
-
Just put an uneven/ungroomed sign at the top of every trail..Riding fast in flat light is on you..
-
Side had no give first time down..Raceway/Mid/LM was super fun.Switch rode well..Ended up doing a bunch of Side laps.Things gave up fast and started to get bounced around a little.Lots of SP training people and a lot of kiddos.. Big thanks again Enjo..You talents have no boundry..
-
Started the car 5am..Cleaned what I could from the sidewalks and salted...Cleaned the car off...Got dressed ...shotgun some coffee..on the road 6:15...Only part of the of the drive that had snow/ice was over the hill at Sheetz...Took me about an hour to get to Blue..
-
Early runs were solid,but fell apart real quick.Trails felt crowded today.First down Side in flat light was interesting.MS side and Switch were fun first time around.
-
If KSL or whoever went in without knowing they couldn't put Lodging/Water park in is just super dumb..
-
OG six was running but not loading..Quad running too..Even had lifties smackin the ice off of the chair seats..

Rode about 2hrs this morning. Slushy drive but no issues.Place was ghosted.On/off rain,sleet.Very top was a white cane zone. Mostly a thin top layer of sno cone and solid underneath.There was grip to a certain point.They left Side ungroomed with with multiple small whales on most of it.Soaker of a morning but still made me smile.

Warmest it's been. Conditions on the MS side felt like that first spring day. No worries about grip,it was always for you..Challange had some small cookies on it before the booster. They had Razor closed. Things on that side felt much firmer. Crowd was low but it did get warm enough for some child size servings of mash taters to show up late morning.. Rode 9-12 with some friends I had not seen in a few. Talked to JLaw for a bit. Super fun morning at Blue.

Super windy day on Sat. Went in with zero expectations. I thought conditions were pretty good for the rain/temp drop we had. Grip was there, but now and then it wasn't. The wind was rough. You were always looking to go faster. Wind took all the snow off the top of Challenge. Sunday was just cold. 15 in the lot when I rolled in. No real wind today. New ungroomed man made at the top of Main was a treat. Much better than yesterday. There is a decent size booster on Challenge that will put you in the danger zone if you don't know it's there. No speed limits today.. It was a big race weekend with fencing everywhere and lots of race people.

Blue has had a good run. Conditions have been good,but yesterday it sorta felt like things were starting to go,but still fantastic riding that makes you smile..
-
Super fun morning at Blue..Most things in good shape. Raceway/Midway was pretty slick.Like yesterday you could really turn it up.NMDW has more features on it then ever...
-
It's been a minute since I rode in that kind of temp. Rolled in at 1°. First hour you could really lay it down. Fast as you want. Some granola clusters here an there but nothing to stop the fun. After nine lines grew pretty quick. Toes started gettin chilled by 9:30 so called it... Shout out to Becky Boo for comin through with the cookies. Perfect for snackin on the drive home...

Today was good..Although I thought yesterday the snow was a bit faster and held up a little better...First run down NMDW was a mistake...Put a little too much faith into Blues grooming...No Lazy but all the other players were fine... Enjo gets my vote for league MVP... -

When I went last year all I did was check in at SP....They told me to stick to Timberline and the one next to it(skiers right).

1/18…pretty nice Saturday session
Mixilplix replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
Solid morning riding at Blue. Some crumbs and minor slick spots here an there but nothing to stop the fun. For the first hour you could turn it up to 11 and not worry. Was on the quad when I saw them drop the rope for NMDW and was tempted but some inner voice said don't..At 10 the lines were almost to the scanners so it was time to bounce... I'm dosin' on the hopeium with this storm... Really want to get some non resort riding in.. -
BC does allow uphill weekdays...

You do any uphill?
