Dude. Blue is a totally different animal. Frost has (had?) decent tree skiing options because of the way it it's set up. Happyland will fill in mainly because of blow over from the fan guns on challenge. The set up there is conducive to that happening. The same applies to E glade (blow ever from rivershot). Mad Tree is rarely as skiable and Risk it is rarely because it needs natural snow. Frost is also colder and yes...gets a little more snow. Talking about the glade scene in the Poconos is just stupid. If it's there great. If it's not I'm not complaining about it.

Why the hell would anyone be disappointed at a ski area, that averages 35 inches a year of natural snow, for not having "enough glades". Do you realize ridiculous that sounds?

It's not worth the risk solely for the fact that it probably skis like shit. It's not like you're floating through light powder. It's glue, can get hurt and probably look like a tool doing it

The "due to unforeseen circumstances" part had me thinking you were gonna relay bad news but it was quite the opposite. What an emotional rollercoaster your post was...lol

Looks awesome. I'll be in attendance this evening

Updated roll call... Rummy Mute? Shadows Ridgeracer Toast is interested Salty Schif Antman? Root? Enjorales (if he can get off) Indiggio? Who else? Meet time 7:45 at the lower lot? Should be a great day!

I saw him and no it wasn't me LOL

I wasn't going to but getting ready to pay and will now...thank you sir!

At slopeside currently. Blue made dough today for sure. A good chunk of it was mine. Lol

Tecumseh is the bump run at Shawnee...but it needs enough snow.

If I remember Fluffy was the guy with the chipper. And we know what happened there.

A lot of fun. Made my daughter get out of bed and go with me. First runs of the year on NMDW and Switchback...God how I missed them so! Each were spectacular. Great conditions everywhere except challenge which was cookiefied. Great morning... probably going back tonight for the winterfest and to ski with my 9 yo. Pics below of my kid and a few others on switchback and a gate shot. Yeah I know the race team sucks but it looked cool

Sounds like a fantastic plan to me Rumster! Excited for this trip to the DSV!

Since Rummy's breaking out the Orion should we all contribute something...sorta like the annual PASR bash (burgers, sausage etc. to go along with the ribs)? Rummy let me know what you need. Also where will the festivities be held? Does elk frown upon parking lot grilling etc.?

This is gonna be a fun time. Looking forward to it

This is one of the most bizarre things that I've seen in a very long time. It's almost as if a former, disgruntled Men's Journal employee hacked into their website, removed Lake Placid and added Tannersville to F with them.

I don't know if I'm more excited for the ribs or the skiing

Whatever you have going on can't be better than skiing and ribs with Rummy.

Do it!

Toast is going to have a blast at Elk...I can see him ripping slalom, mohawk, Iroquois etc.

The votes are in. Feb 8th wins by a 5 to 4 margin so the 8th it is. Roll call for Friday February 8th... Rummy Mute? Shadows Ridgeracer Toast is interested Salty? Schif? Antman? Root? Who else??

Saturday. May have a family thing Sunday

In the Christmas vacation scene where Ellen was holding onto Clark's crotch when the police break in...I always wondered how (or if) Chevy Chase kept things at bay...if you know what I mean. Otherwise I would think that would have been pretty embarrassing for him.

8th works for me too
