tnt Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Might get some snow this weekend. Gonna be packed though, huh? MLK weekend, right? Thinking about trying JF on the bet it's less crowded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 What is an average non VIP wait like at blue on the weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 It will be a shit show for sure. Cool temps and sun will bring out the crowds. The VIP line will help until the crowds arrive...you might not wait in line but the chair will stop every 15 seconds for missed loads and dropped poles. Friday will be very busy during the day and Blue will be under staffed since it's a weekday and the college kids are back to school. Best bet is early Sunday morning.

tnt Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Gonna head up for a day Friday I think. Probably camelback or JF (saving my daughters last PA Ski pass blue voucher for better conditions.) Help me decide between the two. CB - Friday should be less crowded, HS lifts, little closer to home JF - Haven't been for years, shouldn't be at all crowded, but slow lifts, and farther. Maybe I should do CB and save JF for a regular saturday run. Anyway - hope everyone gets some good turns in this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicSkier Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 If you're going friday, make sure you're out of CB before 4pm when the school groups starting showing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnt Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 If you're going friday, make sure you're out of CB before 4pm when the school groups starting showing up. Yeah, we're typically skiing 9-3 or something like that. I'm anxious to get back to JF, but skiing on a weekday is a rarity for me, so beating the typical CB crowd on a friday probably makes sense. Plus, conditions at both are probably marginal. The trees at JF are a draw for us, and probably not worth it this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidgeRacer Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hmmm. It's my only chance to ski until like next Wednesday so I might have to put up with the crowds. Maybe head up after 7 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiggio Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Actually this afternoon now. Business is dead. Pun intended? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted January 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Just back from CB - had the place to ourselves. Snow was terrible, but had a good time anyway. Have work to make up tomorrow, but well worth it to ski onto the lift all day today. Hope everyone has a good weekend of skiing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
