That would be super, but for some reason, Boulder is first to open, and last to open 100%. Last year it took them at least a month to be 100%. not sure if once they get 2-3 trails open, they ship a bunch of fan guns to Frost to work over there or what.

Would make good sense to me as even TTB Bpulder is full and the only interest it holds for me is being open when nothing else is Edited November 19, 2018 by Ski2Live Live2Ski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 If Blue can’t get open this weekend looks like it won’t be open for another two weeks based on the forecast. Doesn’t look like snowmaking temps this coming weekend or early next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Montage will be an option this weekend and if memory serves me right they usually open with at least one trail on the North Face. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidgeRacer Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Montage will be an option this weekend and if memory serves me right they usually open with at least one trail on the North Face.

Good thing you got out yesterday. Imagine just sitting around in a hotel room instead of skiing!? Montage does have a bit better climate than Blue, so that plays to their advantage. Montage seems to be improving year after year with all of their activities and year-round events outside of skiing so it is nice to see them try to make a push to open to get some of that early season market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True if I owned Blue I would gather all the snowmakers into my office and give them a pep talk and tell them that if you can make enough snow to open on Black Friday that I’d give them all $10 WaWa giftcards. You’d be amazed at how motivated they’d be with a little incentive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Toast I would rather not ski than ski freedom and tannenbaum at big boulder. You notice most of the PASRs didn’t go to Big boulder this last weekend for the same reason but you aren’t blasting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty blown away that Montage might open before Blue. Very interested to see what they open with on Friday. P.S. - i am starting to get the feeling GSS doesnt want to ski at Boulder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I'll be up in Scranton for Thanksgiving so some early season turns at Montage might be in order on Root Friday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 hmmm.... tough call. I've never skied at Montage. It's probably 2-1/2 hours for me. If there is no Blue, it's 2-3/4-3 to Belleayre or Hunter....2-1/2 to Montage, 2 to BB....Boy, I really hope Blue opens.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Doesn't seem realistic though, does it? Looks cold enough tuesday night, wednesday all day thursday, most of the day friday.... Maybe a Saturday opening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ride Delaware ? Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Saturday seems more realistic, but I guess Friday could still be possible. As stated before, it all depends on their mindset. If they want to open just for the sake of opening, they could lay down enough snow to open on Friday. The question is whether they want to stockpile, open to stay open, or open just to close and sacrifice thousands of $$$ on snowmaking for one weekend. I feel confident they will open, but I would only think Friday is in the cards if they think Saturday/Sunday is a wash. However, that same mindset could lead to them stockpiling and waiting until a later date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
