Ski Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 It sucks for everyone that Blue is closing a little early 'cause it takes some of the pressure for other hills to stay open. Doug, when you were hauling that slab of granite today, were you thanking God for being born with a silver spoon in your mouth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toast21602 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 not entirely sure i buy this one... i can't remember when they've ever closed on a saturday. its because easter is on that Sunday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bud Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I think they are closing that Saturday because the new owner doesn't want to pay time and a half on Easter Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 So what was Trimreaper's source? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killaton Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) Blue is closing on March 22nd at 5pm...The new owner needs the extra time to count all her money before her fiscal year closes.

bigdaddyk Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I think that Easter being earlier this year will impact skiing. People go into spring / summer mode, after Easter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexkitten Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Hey Doug... if BC is open longer than Blue you should come down and ski it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n0xidee Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 They better not close that day. I will have baseball and won't be able to make it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headbanger Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 If Mary still works there..she owes me a free pass.. Went to Blue yesterday afternoon - the blew snow all over and the coverage is great - much more of a base than other mountains. They could easily stay open into April if the $$$ was there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

method9455 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I wouldn't hold my breath for that date to be correct. Close on a saturday? Make snow 11 days before closing? It wouldn't make a lot of sense, the guy may be right but I would think the next sunday after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Wow...it's good to know that Blue has more base than other mountains..because I haven't skied other PA mountains since January.. Heheheheh... Did Trim ever reveal his source? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not judging whether it makes sense or not, but I thought I read passholders saying Blue blew right up to closing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 It's tough to trust a guy named Trimreaper...lol Maybe it's a girl. I'd be inclined to trust her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast21602 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Not judging whether it makes sense or not, but I thought I read passholders saying Blue blew right up to closing? yeah two years ago they blew the night before closing... last year it was too warm. i wish they could stay open a little longer than next weekend...
