Ride Delaware ? Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Some of the coldest days of my life were at Stowe. Back when they had that single chair and blankets. I would venture to say that was probably before Doug's time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidgeRacer Posted October 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I figure I'm getting 2 days at frost (no season pass this year), one at montage, Shawnee. So that's good. This also gives me a reason to go to Denton and ski the mighty avalanche trail. The Gore / Greek tickets would be used on consecutive days. A day at Gore, overnight wake up early drive to Greek. A nice little NY skifari there. I have a buddy that lives near Swain. Sawmill and Mountain Creek may be the only areas I won't hit. Never skied MC so who knows.

RidgeRacer Posted October 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Ridge you should get a season pass at Blue and make it your home mountain. I'm hopefully getting in on Mbike's dealio if he offers it this season so that'll mean at least 6 days at Blue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicSkier Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 I'm hopefully getting in on Mbike's dealio if he offers it this season so that'll mean at least 6 days at Blue. Â no season pass anymore = not much skiing...you live close to blue...why not snag a pass? There is *always* someone to ski with at Blue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackbiker Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 I don't think I'm gonna get one this year..  Jack Frost - ok Big Boulder - ok Ski Denton - no interest Gore Mountain - mild interest Greek Peak - ok Montage - ok Mountain Creek - would rather not Shawnee - ok Ski Sawmill - no interest Swain - no interest  5 ok's for $129.00 still seems like a pretty good deal. That works out to $25.80/ticket. You should change Gore to an ok. It is a big, spread out mountain and not as crowded as VT. About the only place you ever wait in line there is at the Gondola and only for a few minutes.That ticket alone is worth $75.00. In case no one mentioned it before, you can use the pass at JF or BB twice if you do not want to ski the other. Greek Peak is not far and with the new owners and a new high speed lift it is worth the drive. I used mine last year 6 times including at Gore. That was a sweet deal.

RidgeRacer Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 I believe on the Blue club deal you can use unused days on weekends late in the season. Good to know. I'm really stoked for this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ride Delaware ? Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 They already sold like 30 of them. The Gore / Greek tickets are actually what sold it for me. Plus the 2 at frost. I'd drop Sawmill and MC for blue and elk if I could but still worth it.The Greek and Gore passes probably offer the best value even though the distance/gas money probably offsets that value a little bit. Â I don't understand why some people give Gore so much grief. Decent snowmaking, decent natural, high speed lifts, and excellent glades. If they got closer to 250" instead of 180", I think they would offer some of the best and most consistent glades in the Northeast throughout the season. Â That being said, I haven't been to Gore in 8 years, long before the Ski Bowl and Burnt Ridge expansions. Wouldn't mind getting back. Â I haven't been to Greek since I was looking at colleges 10 years ago. It didn't knock my socks off, but I wouldn't mind going there as a change of pace.

Ride Delaware ? Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 It's only the beginning of October, but there remains very little hope for the Northeast in the 10-Day forecast. That being said, it could always change on a dime and drop a solid 10-20 degrees. Â However, it looks like our western brethren may be looking at an opening sooner rather than later. Loveland ran the guns almost 50 consecutive hours this weekend, and their whales are starting to look pretty good. It's always tough to estimate weather out there since it's significantly colder in the pass, but maybe they will be skiing and riding within a week?

AtomicSkier Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Just booked 7 days of skiing at JH for less than last year, and we're flying out of ABE instead of PHL. Pretty good deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
