4/2/17..closing day.


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

I'm back from closing day. Arrived at the lower lot at 720am and it was 34 degrees and sunny. In the house was pretty much everybody. Early on the snow was really solid but it got

Softer as time went on. I never got to poach challenge which is dissapointing but I'm also glad that I'm not in the database. The best runs were razors, lazy mile and sidewinder.

 

Mid morning went to the lot had some beer then returned to the slopes for a few razors runs which were great fast corn..Enjorales cooked steak and sausage and

Mrs Snowbunski spanakopita was next level elite status. The temperature rose into the 50s and I went and watched a little bit of the pond skimming and I think I saw Enjorales wipe out. Was a fun fun day

And season. I'll post some pictures later

Spectacular closing day. Got yelled st by ski patrol on my last run. They "closed" Lazy to Falls, And tried to direct me down lower Lazy. I wanted to lip off Falls though so I skied around them and they seemed quite angry about it. JADIP

I think I'm sobered up now lol definitely got sunburn today.

Forgot to mention, rode the lift with Ali... that's a trip

Rode up the the lift once with GSS. He didn't seem very happy. I hope you guys weren't mean to him. Maybe it was just the sadness of last day of the season at Blue. Can't believe the season is over, but all in all was good.

Nah I was just in my own world...was smoking loud. Wasn't sad today..those 10:00am runs on razors were best of the day. Edited by GrilledSteezeSandwich

That's why I stopped smoking years ago. Think it got too strong for me. Not the same sweet smelling stuff it used to be.

Crane was/is right by where the paragliders usually launch from. Someone told Pops and I that they were told by a Blue employee that the were filming a scene for the Kevin Hart/Bryan Cranston/Nicole Kidman movie that has been filming down in Philadelphia. It did look like some sort of lighting rigging or something was hanging from the crane when we left the upper lot around 3:15, we had to stop up so dad could pick up his mug from the Last Run Lounge.

Didn't the paragliders launch from the the top of Challenge?

I don't know if they do sometimes or have before, but last spring and the year before I saw them going from the edge of the upper lot, right side as you are driving out on the outermost row. Grassy area behind some big rocks.

 

Didn't really see any of them this year.

some crazy guy from roundtop was yelling to me on the main street lift that they were filming a kevin hart movie.  i have no idea who he was or why he was telling me that

Kevin hart is a short black guy who's a comedian. He's friends with Marco Andretti who's friends with Nazareth Jay and Atomic Jeff so only a few degrees of separation. Maybe we can get him to go tubing with us next season.
