AtomicSkier Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I rolled out of bed at 7:20, went and got breakfast, and was on the road by 7:50. I pulled into my parking space at teh boot at 8:20, booted up, and hit the snow. I wouldn't say the snow is my favorite kind of snow, definitely could use a nice coating of fresh or freshly blown snow. Snow was near-hero snow, and there was nobody there so the snow stayed smooth. I mostly lapped Main Street. Towards the end of my session the top got very foggy, and didn't clear up until Midway. There were actually a few PASR's in the house today, including groupies Tickle-Me-Toast, The Real KT, DanSobey, and Toast's roommate. While I was booting up at the top of the lift, this snowboarder came up to me and said "Yo man, do you shop at Nestors?" and I said "Yes, why?" and he replied "Well my name is Dan, I work at Nestors, I'm just trying to spread the word man". It's enough that I have to talk to Doug while I ski, but to be approached by Nestors employees while I'm skiing just makes me want to I got a quick 13 runs in, good for 10400 vertical feet, and left the parking lot at 10:45. The temperature was 32 degrees, the same as when I pulled in. It was lightly misting, but overall not a bad day. I stopped at the bottom of lazy mile to check out the snow piles on the rest of the mountain. The piles on falls are unbelievable. I have never seen snow piles that big. Hopefully they get their act together and get the 6-pack open this weekend because it's really starting to piss me off. The old Blue would've had their shit together and gotten that open for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomicSkier Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 the 6pack is opening friday jeff. Just saw that. The thing that pisses me off is they're only going to have a few hours of snowmaking, if any, between now and Friday, meaning, it could have been open this whole time.

toast21602 Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 torn meniscus and back in a week don't go in the same sentence unless the sentence is: "i have a torn meniscus and i will not be back in a week." if its torn... its much longer than that.. strained or even a partial tear might get you back in a week... but thats a stretch.

toast21602 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 But he tore it a few weeks ago at Boulder..Matt Stunt said he's living in Colorado from January to March, I think with his Aunt...lucky Kid.. that makes more sense. and screw him for moving out west. he's going to miss Blue and Boulder... i know he will. haha.

Dan- Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Was a good time. Place was deserted when i got there at around 1:45. Im happy with my new gear, kept me dry. Although today brought back memories of last year when blue was stuck with the same trials for a month because of the warmth. But spring conditions are always fun.

toast21602 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 no need to worry about same trails... 6pack and '5 more trails' will be opening on friday :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stever2003 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 torn meniscus and back in a week don't go in the same sentence unless the sentence is: "i have a torn meniscus and i will not be back in a week." if its torn... its much longer than that.. strained or even a partial tear might get you back in a week... but thats a stretch. indeed. i'm recovering from either a partially torn or strained meniscus (they couldnt really tell me, the MRI reading said partial tear but the ortho didnt think so). i think i initially did something to it in late July riding my bike but aggravated it in october playing football. I was happy with my session at Blue on friday night, but i couldn't do the bumps or hit any of the stuff on the side of Lazy....i tried one little jump on Lazy and it definitely didn't feel good... 1 week is bullshit, but it's probably not a season ender this early in the season.

Matt-Stunt Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 sorry about the lack of explaination guys. Big--ben has a sprain and a very minor tear to his menicus. His doctor told him to ski and take it easy in a week and see how it feels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stever2003 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 I can't wait for the 6-pack to open..Are the 5 trails Tuts lane, Shuttle, Homestretch, Challenge, and Falls??? Plus tubing is going to be so legit this year..They brought in some of the best tubing park designers from Park City.. I'd be pissed if they opened the Connector and counted that as one of the 5 trails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast21602 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 challenge isnt going to be open. i just got the email from Blue today. i think they will be able to open it for maybe saturday or sunday if they get good weather/blowing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
