Nice to be able to use it from Lazy to avoid the choke on Shuttle from now on That's great. I will not miss the Choke and having to ski through the terrain park with unpredictable people around after skiing the Lazy Mile. Now we'll only have to contend with that nonsense after skiing Widowmaker, Chute, Switchback, Upper Main Street, Middle Main Street, Lower Main Street, Even Lower Main Street, Vista, Come Around Park, Burma Road, Little Gap, and Barney's Bumps for bumpers like @indiggio I completed the survey and gave everything a perfect score except for this issue.

saltyant Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 (edited) I hereby propose a new trail be cut from Lower Main Street straight to the chair. Move Burma trail* and all the beginner area across the street. Then MattEdge could rip all day long and not even have to slow down. * Or build a ski bridge like Killington did at several intersections. Those are rad Edited January 16 by saltyant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momskeeztoo Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 Yeah, and it was actually nice. They had the guns blasting all day. Mostly on Razors. Gotta keep the race team happy. It was nice to see snow on Sidewinder, but no guns going on that trail☹️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enjoralas Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 I would hope they're pushing at their capacity to make snow this week. What a waste if they're not. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I no longer pull for Blue to make snow on razors for me to ski it, more so to move BMR to their private island and away from the rest of the mountain. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i bought my house in the Poconos, i was amazed at how cheap PPL was. its caught up to Peco a little these days, but still cheaper. I have people call my work weekly trying to get us to switch our electric supplier. They always start out by saying,”grab your electric bill” and I say if you’re calling from PPL you should have it. The last one the decrease was like a half cent per kilowatt hour. I said that’s gonna save us a couple dollars a month not worth it. My bills are between like $70 and $120 so no need for solar panels. Edited January 17 by GrilledSteezeSandwich 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
