I remember skiing with people from epic about 10 years ago who thought PASR was all about park so they stayed away. Wonder if some of those people still think that. We've matured like a fine wine and I guarantee you that any new poster who's cool and doesn't post off the wall shit will be well recieved (take sweetplanks for example).

I tried to post on AZ way back when. Literally my JF TRs got about 20 views with 0 replies. I remember when Doug posted there and they laughed at Blue. Granted that was while ago. Maybe it's a different vibe there now. Not sure but if had had to guess I still think the only people in the Internet who care about where I ski 90% of the time are here.

It's been a while... or Schif moves to Wawa Land.

Still crack up at how pissed off you and Jeff were when that instructor was making ultra wide turns on on Razors (?) that one morning. He heard it on the lift too. Haha. -

Geez all that traffic must really suck. Sorry guys. My ride consists 4 or 5 mile drive downhill for about 1200 feet in elevation, through a covered bridge, over the Blue Mountain and then through some winding backroads till I reach civilization. Usually not much in the way of traffic until I'm about 10 minutes from the office. The worst part of the commute usually occurs when I drink my 3rd cup of coffee too early and have to piss so bad it hurts. -

Congratulations on the career move man. See you at Blue next year. In Lansdale you may be able to hop on the regional rail depending on where you work. Didn't read the whole post yet so apologies if that was addressed. Good luck! Sent from my P00A using Tapatalk -
Sad to see. Epic ski was the first ski board I signed up for and posted on a few years to before PASR. Did a Killington trip about 10 years ago and skied with philpug and trekchick (? ) and a few others. That was fun. Hard core skiers on that site. Sent from my P00A using Tapatalk

Ran into Optimus Prime at the supermarket this evening.

4/8/17 - PA skiing the second weekend in April!
RidgeRacer replied to enjoralas's topic in Jack Frost & Big Boulder
Still kicking ideas around. Looking at places we can drive to. Probably Niagara Falls, Rehoboth or Dewey. Also thinking about Grand Canyon of PA. Definitely going to Pittsburgh for a U2 gig (Philly too). Should be fun -

I'm feeling like a damn slacker sitting here planning summer vacay while you guys are getting after it at BB (and Doug in CO.) -
Have fun man.

All good Douglas. Always happy to talk Pats

Drew Bledsoe is a legend for a number of reasons. He was a great QB and at one point the future of the Patriots franchise. He took the Pats to the SB in '96 against Brett Favre and the Packers. We lost that game but it was new territory and cool just getting there. I've rocked many a Bledsoe jersey back in the day. But despite his great QB play, Drew Bledsoe is known more so for the birth of Sir Thomas of Brady. In 2000, Drew suffered a massive hit in week 2 against the Jets which knocked him out for the season. A then unknown Tom Brady came in to replace Bledsoe, TB12 ripped off win after win that season and ended up winning the Super Bowl for the first time in franchise history against the "greatest show on turf" St Louis Rams. Bledsoe's career with the Patriots was essentially finished. He went on to play for Dallas and Buffalo I believe but it was all downhill (pun intended) after that 2000 season. Bledsoe and Brady remain friends. He's a huge skier, U2 fan and owner / proprietor of Double Back Winery. An all around good dude.

Looks like it was by the top lodge / Slopeside. I didn't ski over that way. Noticed it from the bottom.

Did anyone else notice the crane? Looks like they're getting ready to build something.

Johnny Law... first year local Brandon says hello.

Just got here. Root just arrived as well and a few others are still in the house. Greeted to sweet spring conditions and a festive atmosphere on the mountain. Great day!

Great morning and great snow. Razors was better today than mid winter!

Moe Ghoul how has Smuggs been?

Honestly Blue's got me spoiled. I'd feel weird calling a mountain with under 1k feet of vert home now. Skiing CB the other day felt like I was at Bear Creek. Sorry if that comes off as being a dick but it is what it is. It would be hard to move back to Jackson Frost with it's 600 vertical full time especially if the trees aren't a priority there anymore. Vert is meaningless out west or even in Vermont. In PA every foot counts.

If you thought the Camelback shade on blue was bad, I just stumbled across this gem on twitter...

What some fail to consider is that vouchers and a cup of cocoa won't keep the red lobsters that we all love and are passionate about open for business for very long. There'd be no Red Lobsters left! I, for one, am ok with supporting those Red Lobsters because if I couldn't ski, I mean eat at red Lobster, I'd be really really sad.
