Always enjoy your pictures. If I'm able to ski out west next year, I should consider this. What months are typically best and what weeks are best to avoid because of crowds?
-
Maybe tomorrow will be my last session at Blue this year.
-
Wow that's pretty nice..do you get a food discount?? What about gear discounts??
Food discount while on duty. Oh forgot, too, IRS dependents get full season pass for $50, significant other full pass for $25
-
Free tickets pretty much everywhere in eastern PA. Skied free last year at Elk, Montage,Camelback. Could have went free to Blue, but already had pass. Any Peak Resort will comp you. Most places do limit you to 1-2 tickets season. Last year Killington gave me 1cp ticket, wouldn't this year. Not sure why. Guess they are losing to much & with this crappy season
-
Kind of sad..delivery guy just said,"blue mountain is prob gonna close for the season soon" usually February 24th I can defend that comment but not this year. Weather does look great for the weekend but pretty warm Sunday..golfers are loving it.
What kind of perks??
-
I'll check it out sometime. I work down in Bucks/MontCo so wouldn't have worked for lunch. For Mexican while working I like Fiesta Habanero in Quakertown. Only a couple outside picnic tables though, so that wasn't happening today.
Fiesta Habenero also has sit down place on Rt 29 just above Pennsburg. Good food.

It was definitely worth the perks for a couple years, I can't complain.

Are you at bear creek on the weekends??
Only Sundays. I am not doing the Bear Creek job next year. I really don't need to have 2 jobs anymore. Too much.
-
Not sure. Surgery went well. Now working on healing up and gaining range of motion back through physical therapy. That's my focus at this point. I would think that at the earliest late March but I need to be 100% ready. I'm in no way pushing it. I've come to peace with my season being potentially over. If it happens this year, it happens but my goal is to come back stronger and better than ever next year. I know it sounds cliche but that's where I'm at.
Seriously, don't ski til next year. It's not worth it. When I tore my ACLS, I really wanted to ski before it was repaired. I figured what the hell, it's already a mess. One of my kids actually talked sense into me! You're not missing a great season. So just heal 100%. Next year will be better.

Insane. Jumping over helicopter with rotors turning??!! Let alone everything else.
-
I guess you can go Friday with non peak pass? I'm out of town til tomorrow late. Prolly wouldn't feel like going Thursday, but definitely would be wanting to go Friday.
-
Took a trip there about 5 years ago. Went during the week and stayed a the hotel. They had a great breakfast buffet. Mostly went at the request of 2 park riders, so took them. It's not very steep, but pretty wide. The kids really did enjoy the park. Other than that, nothing special.
-
I always put the bar down. Nice footrest.
-
I skied Main Street again which was nice then paradise to dreamweaver for a little variation. Lots of kids out today. Do some school have off this week??? Nice to see the snowmaking cannons still blasting building base depths as its gonna be warm this weekend. OK gonna ski a few more runs. Next on the agenda Is lazy mile to the falls.
image.jpegRight on enjoy the rest of your session. I'm hoping for a couple more good snowstorms!!!!
Yes, apparently schools in New York off all week. Hotel at Bear was booked solid. There were a lot of kids there today. It typically is not that crowded on a Thursday. I can't complain- never had to wait in line, and slopes didn't seem busy. I did feel bad for I guess was Park Crew. They were trying to film jump, and just kept getting snaked by people on rental skis.
-
Nice. Has he ever been to a summer camp like Windells? Although, I think all snowboarding camps are done at High Cascade. Expensive, but the amount they can progress in a week is incredible.
-
Another fun day. Why can't work go this fast??? Buses arriving and time to go.
-
Hope that meteorologist is right.
Taking a quick break. Then back out.
-
Unfortunately, warm this weekend and possible rain Wednesday.
-
Challenge wasn't too bad earlier today. Some mini golf balls scattered about. Getting a little scraped off. Switchback best run today.
-
As far as terrain, definitely Blue. Bear is a little closer to me, and was definitely worth getting cheap passes for working there 8 hours week when my kids were young. Might drop the job next year. As far as food, Trails End pizza really good. Don't know about cheese fries. Haven't bought any food at Blue since they dropped BLT.

30 laps at bear! That's dedication! I don't blame you for staying away from Sasquatch, that trail is goofy. I don't think I've ever skied anything anywhere else with such a weird fall line. It's short, but if the snow on it isn't good, it really kinda sucks.
I thought it was just me who felt that way about Sasquatch. I just find that trail really difficult a lot of times. Although it was really nice yesterday. And days when it's nice it's such a pain to lap, unless you hike.

From her Wikipedia entry:
"Seyfried has a taxidermy collection which includes a baby horse, a fox, an owl, a moose, a goat, a hybrid taxidermy deer and butterflies."
You can take the girl out of the Lehigh Valley . . .
That is creepy and weird.

Nice. When your boys get to their 20's they'll start hanging with you again. Our son is 26, lives in Arizona. We're going out to see him again in April. I mentioned he didn't have to hang out with us all the time. He answered that he wanted to hang out with us a lot. Made me feel pretty good.

I actually like Elk. I wouldn't say it's the best mountaln in Pa, but I have fun there.

When will Blue close for the season?
in Blue Mountain
Posted
Any one go tonight? How are things holding up? Just looked at Bear's website, over half closed, and I doubt if they will reopen. Didn't work there Sunday or yesterday.
