I skied there once in the pouring rain. Reminded me of big boulder but with a nice hotel and lodge. It’s good if you’re close I guess.

Just got back. Everything was good. I’m giving it a 9.7. The inch or two of fairy dust that fell from the sky made things pretty consistent throughout. Mostly chalky with a ton of grip. Not the fastest snow in the world but it didn’t matter. Even did a run through sleepy hollow for stoke. I’m assuming school groups canceled so the crowds were minimal with maybe 3 or 4 buses total. I thought it may be good when I left and saw how sketch the roads were. Took me and 15 minutes or so longer than normal keeping it in third pretty much the whole way. Our school just announced a 2 hour delay tomorrow. Fun night for sure. Ski you all on Sunday.

Best night sesh on a long time

It's a mini pow night and conditions are

Just got here. Light snows falling. Not much in the way of crowds. LFG

I’m going RAW dawg tonight so hoping conditions stay nice

I’ll be in Lancaster for a volleyball tournament on Saturday. So looking like Sunday and Monday for me.

First time I’ve ever heard of a resort removing trails. What’s the reason for that?

Oh shit that's right. Ugh

Have fun

I think I’m gonna head down for a few runs. Lines don’t look bad Edit...nah wind is kicking up.

I remember big boulder had funnels with basketball nets attached to the top. Smh.

You're spot on. I guess what I don't understand is why is it just here (Blue, Camelback etc.) this is a non issue at every other ski area that I've been to outside of NEPA. It's really not an issue and Elk or even Frost. My theory is that it's happening mostly at night with school groups etc.

Trash cans at the top and bottom, remove the funnel, instead throw signs up everywhere that say "please keep our mountain beautiful, do not litter" or "littering is subject to pass removal". Also Put "littering is subject to a fine and removal of pass" in big bold letters on tickets, trail maps, lift towers etc...everything basically so when someone gets caught patrol has every right to take their shit and kick them out. You get caught once you lose your pass. You get caught a second time you're subject to a lifetime ban from Blue mountain.

Sending people out to pick it up is great but that’s not the solution. They need to do whatever they can to prevent it from happening in the first place.

Where's the Pizza from? A&G?

Fun day but man the crowds were crazy today. Conditions were top notch for the first few. All in all a good couple of ski days this weekend!

Why can’t it just be…”I skied blue?” Why add the $40 part? Seems weird.

It's amazing what an inch of snow can do for stoke...not just for tightening up conditions but also mentally ...to feel like you're in the mountains. The first few runs of the day (challenge and side for me) were so money it was hard not to smile. From there it stayed good virtually everywhere. Even skied sleepy hollow glade a few times along with the ditch. Main was probably the worst condition wise. Crowds became large around 9 and despite wanting to ski more...lines beyond the turnstiles at 940 and crowded slopes were enough to wrap up a mighty fine session. Maybe the best of the season so far.

Saturday and Sunday

Thank you sir. United...but i appreciate you looking out!

Drop the 4 and I'd consider it, but only if blue was closed

My first 3 runs were challenge 2x and switch and was like... ok. Here we go. 9.5 out of 10. Then reality hit like a punch in the face quickly as the cookies and sugar reared their ugly heads. In addition, the carbon county dump was out in full force under the lifts. They put the eye sore giant trash cans out but the funnels aren't on them which gives people a smaller target to throw their filth at, just creating more trash and the fact that we need to line our slopes with giant trash cans speaks to a much larger problem. Not to mention the giant trash cans don't help the littering issue anyway. All in all always better skiing but I'm gradually moving from stoked that the season is here phase to crap that irks me phase.

I'm sure. This may be the first time I've gotten into January without doing a night session. I don't see it happening either, at least until the spring.

Imagine what it's like right now. Probably like sand dunes
