Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 14, 2015 Report Posted January 14, 2015 Thinking about skiing JF this weekend. What is the coverage like in the glades now? And who can tell me what Subaru Winterfest is. Not many details on their page. Is this something only for Subaru owners? Will it make crowds worse than otherwise for a holiday weekend?
C1erArt Posted January 15, 2015 Report Posted January 15, 2015 Haven't been there since Sunday, but the glades are pretty thin, with the exception of elevator glade. There are some skiable sections of Challenge glade, but not top to bottom - more pop into the glade and pop out when it gets thin. Subaru Winterfest is not much - maybe an outside bar-be-que, and parking in the closest lot is closed unless you have a Subaru. Not too many extra crowds because of it.
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Posted January 16, 2015 Thanks for the info. May head up Saturday.
Justo8484 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Posted January 16, 2015 Might check out the subi action on Sunday before the changeover to rain
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 16, 2015 Report Posted January 16, 2015 Might check out the subi action on Sunday before the changeover to rain Just a chance of precip Sunday will likely be snow on the poconos and prob won't start till afternoon.
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 17, 2015 Author Report Posted January 17, 2015 Answering myself, the happy land glade off challenge was skiable, but it was more skied off than the slopes, so only did it a couple times. Subaru fest meant they gave me and anyone else interested free private lesson, my first in decades, which was a source of good pointers and made for no lift lines for a while. Lines were minimal everywhere anyway and non existent on East Mtn. So Frost was the right call for me today.
larrytbull Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 Just got back myself Took a lesson as well No ski lines from park on to east mountain. Horrible wait at greens and anything from Lehigh down. Spent most of my day at exibition

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 No his name was Jay. Nice did you show him how to do a tripod?
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 Actually I did. Boom...that's what you're known for!!!!
larrytbull Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 Sounds like you are fixated on tripods. Maybe you should strap into a single ski and get one of your boys at blue to teach you that move. Worst case scenario is a good faceplant
phillycore Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 Anyone ski with Keely Kelleher at winterfest today?
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 Anyone ski with Keely Kelleher at winterfest today? I just looked her up. She's hot and from Bozeman Montana. Why was she at Jack Frost? They must have paid her a ton of money. Former Olympian and NJ native Danny Kass was at Blue the other day.
phillycore Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 She came and gave a clinic to those who signed up to ski with her had a bunch of sessions too. Ski/backpacking magazine part of winterfest. Nordica and lib tech had demos, free hot chocolate was given out, subaru was giving out swag, had a cool little freestyle course setup on frosty, they hid a ticket for a gopro on the mountain.
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 Blue also had free hot chocolate today!!!
RidgeRacer Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 If jack frost jumped off the Golden Gate bridge would blue jump off as well? 1
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 If jack frost jumped off the Golden Gate bridge would blue jump off as well? Wow just wow that would make a big splash.
