That's Main Street and they always focus on Main Street in the beginning. Lazy Mile will likely open up during the second week if the weather stays cold, but I think last year they opened Lazy Mile the first day?
Makes sense to me. I'm sure it's a lot cheaper to run the double lifts in terms of energy costs then the 4 or 6 pack.
-
the wrod is looking better. hard to tell but either lazy mile or main street looks like it's getting a lot of attention!
-
The camera has been turned and the guns are on!!
-
I learned to ski at Shawnee. Still a great place, but the lifts really slow ya down. If they open before Blue, I'll probably hit the wrod there.
-
It's 30 degrees here so it must be like mid 20s at Blue..Is the webcam still focused on the new tubing tent?
yup
-
The main web page now says "Get ready for winter. Blue is making snow"
The conditions page says "Blue Mountain is taking advantage of the cold temps and will continue to make snow when possible."
What's the web cam pointed at, the new tent?
-
so, is blue gonna sack up and try and beat boulder at their own game and push for opening on friday instead of wait til saturday? wouldn't that be quite the surprise.
that is the big question right now...
-
turned off now

What
the
F
man we better get some snow soon
-
yeah it was snowing here at my house, 8 minutes from Blue.
best news I've heard all weekend
-
gotta love those 30 degree drops in 24 hours!
-
The detailed point forecast for Blue is showing a chance of snow on Monday and Tuesday. Accuweather's 15 day forecast has some snow on for Turkey Day! Lows in the 20's all week.

Can't wait

The crowds alone are enough to make the horrendous lift ticket price not worth it. You'll say to yourself, "I PAID for this crap?"
I have no plans to ski MC anytime in the near future unless it was free, but if you buy the triple play cards, the price isn't exactly horrendous. 3 tickets for $69

When I lived in Parsippany & could make it there in 30 minutes, I'd buy a bunch of the cards.
If you're going to ski MC, do yourself a favor, ski it mid-week

Back on topic...do you guys have more respect for ski patrollers after seeing the program? You have to give them props for spending long hours being traded on first aid and rescue skills along with long hours sitting in the patrol shack when they could be skiing for fun. Patrollers are not doing for the free pass...it's because they want to help people along with the commaradarie..
I've always given them a decent amount of respect. Perhaps to an extent, that's a flaw of mine, because I'll generally give respect or trust upfront until it's violated. I've really never had a problem with them. I've been whistled at more time than I'd like to admit to for speeding on Paradise, but never on any other trail. I've always slowed down and never ever needed to be chased down.
I've now seen some of the ugly side of skiing. It hugely reminds me of my emt days.

I got this in my email today. I'm guessing that GSS will be happy.

It helps to use the "smileys" but they're gay so there you go.
yeah...cheap red wine and lazy fingers...
That's why I got married... to ensure that someone is legally required to be around for just that reason.that's funny. I had to push my wife around Disney in a wheelchair this summer when she broke her foot for the same damn reason.

That is a sad, sad thing honey.
my cynicism not really showing through on that post. More so meant to ski up with you folks.
-
...don't worry Root..if you ski with the Blue crew a few times..you'll get a nickname..
can't wait. no seriously I can't
-
the way they edit the footage together, it would make you think that 1 out of 20 gets a ticket. damn lol
-
looks like another chase coming up...can't wait.
we do look a little lame though. I wonder how many tickets they actually write an hour.
-
Concussion Ted is a motherhucking pimp..he's gonna get all the former N'sync groupies..
which one is ted? and why does he have concussions?
-
So apparently all the trails changed names? Switchback is now Burma Road. We're all going to be pretty confused this upcoming year.
not really...just ski as fast as you want until you hear the whistle....then give the SP the thumbs up and move onto another trail
-
"I just got out the pen."
HAHAHAHA!!
yeah, that was pretty good
-
Hahaha putting cameras in front of these kids is like asking for them to be horse's asses. "I kill it dawg, I'm sick"
Killa on Paradise dawg...
I can't wait for round 2 with these dopes.
I feel bad for the kid on snow blades though.
lift ticket on the zipper...total gaper
