They’re closed tomorrow…

Thanks…I’m healing pretty well…the wrap they put around my knee really helped a lot..when I remove it in the shower I notice quite a difference. I didn’t need crutches today and even stopped at Wegners which no way I could do Friday-Monday.. Still real wonky getting into and out of car, I’ve accidently honked the horn a few times. Im optimistic I’ll be back at Blue maybe next week or the week after.

Oh Lordy you got yourself in a real pickle…if possible I always try to get the gate agent to do my bag tags as they suck…I’ve never checked a boot bag and never will, I don’t even have a boot bag, some of the boomers who boot up in the lodge have really schmancy boot bags..maybe Harold will show you his sometime. Did you fly to Eagle airport or Denver so you could visit the mint?

Nice view, did you bring your fishing rod??? How was your travel out there? Have fun

Do y’all do any covers or take requests? I like that taking care of business song.

How many different ski areas have you hit this season? So are you buying some tickets since you can only use one Indy pass per day?

Good they’re blowing gonna be in the 60s next week. It seems like they went quite a long stretch in February with limited or no snowmaking.

Today I’m optimistically thinking maybe just maybe I’ll be able to ski a little bit later this month…my knee being wrapped makes a big difference. Without skiing and minimal sleep until last night, this was by far the longest weekend.

Thanks I’m just taking it day by day. It’s obviously rough not having skiing right now but don’t wanna hurt myself worse..

Yeah right more like next season

The last 48 hours since Friday morning has not been great for me. By Friday night lots of swelling above my knee…I walked maybe 50 steps to the lobby to pick up my Uber eats and that was a chore. Sleeping was tough, minor depression and PTSD..Atomic Jeff said I’m dramatic, yeah maybe. Yesterday made an adventure to the vending machine and mustered up the strength to go to the mini market last night for Zyn, pretzels and some drinks…they also sell crutches in Uber eats. Today went to Patient first around 10am…nobody was there, had x rays, doctor thinks it’s some sort of sprain…wrapped up knee, gave me anti inflammatory prescription and I bought crutches…they suggested going to Walmart cause cheaper or borrowing from a friend..nah I didn’t want to hobble around Walmart. I also was taught how to use the crutches, never used them before. So my attitude is better now, trying to be positive, missing skiing sucks but I need to be better for day to day life. I’m supposed to help with deliveries tomorrow..I don’t know.

Smart you’ll get an extra 42 hours out of your brakes doing that.

That stinks but one day has to be the worst and at least you weren’t limping back to your car..just gotta set the bar really low and it’s not spring it’s February for a couple more hours.

Nice report..a few years when I was in college Bolton wasn’t operational and I hiked it a few times with skis, I only skied lift served there once and was night skiing so not as much open. Looks like an incredible amount of snow on the ground there and should stick around awhile.

Did you park at the top? Nice job describing the conditions lol

I don’t think I’ve ever been OK wahahahah…but if you see me pussyfooting down stuff tomorrow you know why, I’m already planning on Paradise first give challenge a break for a second, just like I avoid the stretch of road old lady crashed into me.

And sorry, that was Lucas Catania..he was on his way back to Utah after skiing in Canada.

@sibhusky James from Rise and Alpine visited the Big Mountain Montana. His mantra is ski fast and rip ass!!

Hey All, I’m back from another fun morning at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the lower lot around 825am and it was partly sunny with a temperature in the upper 30s with moderate winds. In the house were Atomic Jeff, NMSki, Mark, Bethlehem ford crew minus Bethlehem ford guy, Oz, Airhead and some others. First run on Main Street was ok, a little crusty and a little soft..Challenge was solid cord but with every skier turned to straight cookies. Coming soon was decent and I skied that twice as was lazy mile. I returned to challenge later when the rest were on Sidewinder and it was so cookied up and I was telling myself ski on top of the snow not in it and a second later my ski got grabbed and I got twisted around for my first fall in two years. My calf/knee is sore but I don’t think it’s anything serious. When I left at 1030am the temperature was up to about 45 degrees.. Now back at work like a dork, already sold a tombstone over the phone. JADIP i forgot to take a picture so I’ll leave all y’all with this in honor of yesterdays date.

Hey all, It’s almost the weekend and now spring skiing at least temporarily. Is anybody going to be in the house? I’m planning on tomorrow and Saturday for opening to enjoy the spring skiing…Sunday I might skip as it’s gonna get down into the teens Saturday night and expecting craptastic conditions Sunday so might use as an excuse to go out and party rock Saturday night.

Reminds me of when Copper mountain had a Club Med and there was even a movie called Copper mountain starring a young Jim Carrey
