Hey All, I’m back from another short morning session at Blue mountain the true mountain. There was a solid inch of new snow on the west side of Allentown and about a dusting new at Blue. It was overcast and in the upper 20s with light winds. In the house were Atomic Jeff, Johnny Law, Laws brother, C1er, Bethlehem ford crew and Jeff’s friend Nick. Second civilian super summit safari six pack, atomic Jeff managed first chair…Main street was a nice carpet of machine groomed packed sugar…lipstick on a pig but great initially. Up the quad and challenge was very nice a little firmer. I skied the three times in a row then back to Main Street which was mad sweet and low. Coming soon was not that good, cookies and crunchy… I went back to Challenge and a lot of the cookies below had emerged, amazing how much conditions change in an hour. I ended my session on razors which was pretty nice and scored some fresh cord on Razerback. All in all a nice session but I wish they ran the OG six pack during the week. JADIP

Wow that was a nice report. I’ll have to google exactly where the place is.

I’ll be up tomorrow AM, seems like it’s been weeks

Wow already and changeover to all those things wow just wow

That snow looks great..amazing what a couple inches of fresh snow will do.

Nice report!! Did you have any issues with altitude sickness I heard if ears pop chew gum or pop in a Zyn

Now sleeting in the A

I have a little PTSD from the Root Roller on challenge and no I’m not gonna email Jim Doily

@saltyant I just went out to my car to grab a beer and it’s starting to snow. What’s it doing in your hood?

Thanks PSUFlyGuy for the beer earlier..it was real good…and I don’t mean to be a complainer in reports but I wanna be real with it..as much as I don’t wanna drive on sloppy roads tomorrow AM..additionally frozen precip be it snow..sleet..will help and maybe just maybe it stays snow a little longer up in carbon county

If he’s allowed to leave the state/country lol

Airhead said 2-5” for elk

Hey All, I’m back from a fun morning at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the lower lot before 720am and it was in the low 20s under mostly cloudy sky’s. In the house was everybody except Dirtwolf and Salty. First civilian six pack to challenge which was pretty nice initially and the big roller in the middle got me..luckily I’m an agile mofo so no carnage but I don’t like that roller. I skied challenge again then Main Street which wasn’t that good. Kind of scratchy. Coming soon was ok and lazy I skied for the first time in like a month..just too slow for me to enjoy. Challenge was now thick sugar, not that good with boilerplate below and sidewinder with all the root rollers was super crowded and icy. I ended on Burma which was super slick. I’d say aside from the first few runs it was some of the worst conditions so far this season but before my JH trip blue had a couple weeks of great conditions. Let’s hope tonight’s freezing rain and sleet helps but I feel that Blue is cheaping out on snowmaking, I’m surprised they didn’t blow any overnight. Now at work, I have an appointment at 130 for art changes…groan JADIP

Agreed

Good: the mountain despite being busy at times still steep and if you can ski well you’re rewarded that’s sort of soul of a lot of the top places. And if you don’t know don’t go.. Bad: I don’t love the delayed openings and some of the classic rock flashbacks slap but most should be retired or set in a vault like the take a load off Annie song..sorry not sorry

Good: the Food…always medium to large portions bubbas always delivers next trip I’ll do breakfast and dinner cause their brisket third to point Phillips and @enjoralas and so many sides. Mangy Moose: always good even with medium alcohol beer..their brisket cheesesteak elite for sure

Rumors..and they can do a hotel or condos/quarter shares whatever but not within a certain distance of the Appalachian trail in the valley no problem but they wanted to tie hotel and condos in with slopeside and it was shot down. My dad even signed up for the email list for the condos I didn’t have the credit score back then for mountainside living and now I can finance a boat and a mail order bride and I don’t care for the salt lyfe

Camelbacks always sucked…I just think it’s sucked worse this year. Almost anybody would do a worse job running Blue…if Vail buys Blue you’ll miss these current times.

What bullshit this year? I feel like Blues been doing a really good job.

Thats what Dimes homeys were saying about KSL..Barb might buy it back.

Are you skiing anywhere on the way home?

I saw wind holds at jay peak on upper mountain lifts. Hopefully everything is OK at Stowe for Salty and his bras

Wow the kickstarter is almost up to the $80k goal in a couple days.

That’s what I like to hear!!! And as Toast always said it’s all about the base…no treble
