indiggio

All depends on which SP sees you and in what kind of mood they're in.

Feeling it when lugging the blower around. Even it was having a hard time throwing the snow.

Eh, only mid 40's Sunday, not like the crappy 70s! If storm comes through with higher amounts, I think it'll stick around for a while.

Amount predictions are all over the map, anywhere from 3 to 8 minimum for Poconos. Just gonna come down to the wire and definitely a heavy, wet one.

From the webcams, it looks like the snow held up pretty well. Compressed down a fair amount, but with 70 temps what can you expect?

I'll believe the hype when the snow's on the ground...

Spectacular opening day. Kudos to Blue for seeding bumps from the get-go. By mid-morning they were perfect.

When only the doubles were open and the lines were long, probably around 11am.

What? Take away the death cookies that Blue has worked so hard to perfect? Perish the thought!

Will be dodging other skiers/boarders this weekend! Yes, skied breakable crust before. Not fun when the tips go under the crust and the crust slams you in the shins... Blue makes the best cookies in the Poconos!

If you can ski/board Blue's cookies, you can ski/board anywhere...

I wouldn't be surprised if they have Lazy open for Sunday. They've got to give the uh, less able skiers another way down beyond Midway, which is gonna be its typical spectacle. Trail listing says they blew on Chute? Sounds like they want to try to take some more heat off Midway.

True jibhonks don't ride lifts, they just pike it back up...

"Our snowmaking system increased water output to an impressive 14,000 gpm & air for snow to 55,000 cfm - keeping Blue the region's leader in snowmaking technology"

Probably decided it's not worth working on the valley yet and decided to concentrate on Main Street. Whales on Main Street are impressive! Should get better production today with diminished winds.

Hard to really tell for sure, but from the webcams it sure appears as though they're able to run more guns concurrently than before. Or it's probably just my perception, hoping they blow a fuck-ton of snow before the warm spell hits. Also wondering why they stopped blowing in the valley???

Right! Can't wait for the Pocono powder.

Probably not. Not until there's some good lines being formed.

My belly-button's been puckering and unpuckering all day! Thinking about scraping the storage wax off the skis.

No! Then people might figure out just how good a run it really is.

Do it all the time. Sun comes up, crud broken up and the moguls soften, best time to ski!

Right, but they obviously had a number of hours last night that they could have blown.

Was looking at them and wondering why they only tested and didn't leave them on longer??

But you can remember every inch of every run you do in a day at Blue?
