hmm that's good to know. May not have to ski in NJ in May 😂

I tend to agree, but now I'm going to have to check this out tomorrow.

Lots of companies are afraid of FOSS. It's the future.

Because if you think Microsoft is at the forefront of anything you're ... wrong.

the thing that scares me the most is it's powered by Microsoft Power BI.

If you can't afford $500 for a season pass, you're stretching yourself too much. Don't be house poor. Sorry, just real talk.

You're going to have to wait for the good, the bad, and the ugly. @GrilledSteezeSandwich I skied Peel the other day. I always take CO "EX" terrain with a grain of salt. Sure, it was expert terrain, but nothing EXTREME about it.

It's steep. Too steep to really let them run.

I already shoveled the driveway yesterday as I knew it was getting warmer and wanted to give it the best chance to melt. Snow removal guy came today and pretended to move snow around for a bit @Barb 😂

I'd work from the patio one day just to bronze up, but the table is still covered in about 3ft of snow. Masks really cut into my bronzing, so it'll have to happen when I'm running 🤷‍♂️

As a sun lover (according to @GrilledSteezeSandwich), today was 10/10. Temps in the low 30s, no wind, and plenty of sunshine. I went out for a 5 mile run at lunch time before heading up to the mountain around 2pm for 90 minutes of skiing in the sun with perfect conditions. Perfect end to the day.

hah ... want to bet it sticks around?

I don't think they'll charge $1000. It clearly would have an affect on season pass purchases based on the feedback here, but would they lose 1/2 of their sales? Probably not, so it'd be everyone's benefit. I do think the early bird should be $599. That's reasonably early season pricing based on what Blue offers. The full priced November pricing should be close to $1000, though, based on same day max ticket pricing at $100+/day.

ok, then get epic and ski by yourself at JFBB. you won't, you'll pay the $1000 now that you're hooked. this is why blue is leaving money on the table.

It’d be worth it for the bitching alone 😂

Lines pretty long right now at Crested Butte .... everyone is welcome*. * subject to pre-approval.

Groundhogs day. Left the house at 8:40am, picked up the 8:45am bus, and was AIC (ass in chair) by 8:58am. Love that they open early (5-10 minutes before 9am). Slightly cooler and breezier than yesterday but still very sunny, and snow conditions were just as good. The big difference was there was a 1/3 fewer people out today. I doodled in the woods a bit to explore more terrain. When I got back down to the base at 10:45am, the Silver Queen line was like a minute. So up for an International Lap, a pretty freakin steep groomer. And then up for another. I rode the lift with a guy who was born in Allentown, lived in Maryland, but has been doing what I'm doing for the past month. Supposed to be in the mid-30s and sunny tomorrow, so should be yet another day in paradise. No sausage sunday for me, just some left over pizza and a few beers 😁

You could pay someone to do half the stuff you complain about doing. Yes, you’d complain about paying someone, but you wouldn’t complain about the extra free time 😂

Another day, another ski day 😁 Today was awesome. Warmest it's been, and extremely sunny. Groomers were 10/10 this morning and was able to really put the hammer down. I hit and quit the main lifts as I know they'd get crowded and explored some of the lesser lifts that I hadn't ridden yet, like East River. Totally empty and you could really crush some fast groomers. Skied until 11, and when I got back to the base area, the two main lifts were out of the corrals (and they're big corrals). Meanwhile, I skied right onto every lift.

Fucking awesome boys (and girls). Amazing what you get in PA. Makes me a little jelly 😁

Just wanted to make a record here. Toured up Snodgrass today. Just shy of 2.9 miles. More pics here:

Wanted to change it up today, so I ran at lunch time and decided to tour up Snodgrass. Hit the trail at 3:30pm and was at the top at 4:55pm. This was my longest tour to date at just under 3 miles and ~1500ft of gain, and I can tell my boots have broken in nicely as I as overall pretty comfortable. Temps were in the low 20s with on/off sun. Some really nice views, but not sunny when I took the pictures 😂 Because the uphill trail snakes back and forth a bit, you get a good view of some lines. I enjoyed some nice shin deep pow on the way down, but nobody to take any pics 😁 I'm beat, and I'm going to drink all the beer.

I'm 99% sure the densely treed hill on the far right is Snodgrass.

Decided to change it up today, and ski after work, as I had a lot going on today. Skied for about 90 minutes...enjoyed some sunny groomers and some double diamond extreme terrain. Like @GrilledSteezeSandwich said, I love the sun, and I was enjoying myself today.

Looks great boys!
