Schif

Blue builds some really nice parks, though they make my shoulder hurt just looking at them.

Saturday and Sunday this weekend

Traffic on 202 this morning was terrible. 100% rain though

Deadhead Bob told me, with great certainty, that the fantasy lift is actually a funicular.

Epic might be the way to go next year. If all the bad publicity this year pushes people onto Ikon the crowds will just shift and maybe Vail resorts will be a little more mild.

There was a car that went sideways on the ramp ahead of me coming home. Backed things up pretty good. There were some guys trying to push it and from the little distance I could see it looked like they were flailing around like some high school kids who were too scared to call their dads for help. As I got closer it was a bunch of grown men in designer clothes trying to get their Porche to move, so I just drove around them.

Is it good base building snow? It's all gone down here. I'm hoping this stuff will just compact and then the next snowfall will be skiable.

Looks like it all went to rain overnight in the KOP area and washed everything away except for a few slushy spots. On my drive it started to switch back to snow as I drove through MALVERN and was almost all snow when I got to Exton. The clouds are so dark too. Looks like the sun never even came up.

Can we get a TR of what happened that was so intense that it kept the great @GrilledSteezeSandwich away from Blue?

Valid. And the call out was done out of love ❤️❤️

So if one wanted to ski Sunday morning still watch the Eagles at 1 and not pull a Toast and leave by 8:43am, what's a good sports bar in the Lehigh valley/Palmerton area to hang at?

That's what he said and I don't have any reason not to believe him.

Last night was pretty solid. One of my few night sessions but RAW is where it's at. Temps were super comfortable, the lines looked bad but went really fast and the snow was pretty great. Only got Coming Soon once but i was the only one on it at the time and really got to noodle around and enjoy it. Sat at a fire pit at the end of the night for a few minutes and it was actually lovely. Nice to look up at the mountain all lit up and those string lights and fire pits change the ambiance of the bottom lodge a lot

So Coming Soon, Main Street and Nightmare will all have bumps on them this year? Any that I missed?

Just popped on Camelback's website for the first time in a while. I guess they have just given up at this point and realized they peaked in the early 2000s.

White lightning ends 100 feet from a lift. If that trail was a ripper the carnage would be next level at the bottom and at least one person per year would get fished out of that lake.

Likely tonight, Saturday and Sunday. Watching that weather though, saying 8 inches Sunday night and 2 inches Monday morning. (insert joke here) Maybe take Sunday morning off in favor of Sunday night or Monday morning?

I wonder why they were running the 6 in the morning and the quad at night. Do they normally switch lifts like that?

A Go Pro fell off of the bottom of a plane.

Have you seen this Wendover video about frequent flier programs?

Are you staying at the airport? When did they rebook you for? What's the coffee situation at the airport hotel?

Agreed. It's taking it to a next level

Getting the sunglasses ready now. See you guys Saturday.

The only way Philly got an inch of snow is if someone dropped a snow cone at a very specific part of the airport.
