I'll admit lodge food can be really good, despite the prices were forced to pay due to convenience. CB is pretty rad today. I plan to do an actual ski trip report later today at the request of Steeze. $5 is cheap for a ski area Hamburger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy to become a competent intermediate; It takes a shitload of work to get off that plateau and become a really good skier. I'm still stuck, and I work like hell. I'm at Blue right now giving my legs a break. Blame the conditions if you want, but look around at all the people styling that icy hardpack. I want to be like them. I look forward to skiing with you someday; we can commiserate! Conditions aren't good at Blue??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, expert skiers do well regardless of conditions, so it's something I aspire to. Im sure I'll meet you soon or next season if I get a season pass for Blue. I guess I will so I can ski better trails and have people to ski with every now and then, but I keep reading negative reports on Blues queue management. But at this time I tenatively plan to give Blue a try at least for one season. Blues liftline management is fine...it hasn't been real crowded yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally had a double cheeseburger But it costs $7.99 so I put it back and got a single without the slice of cheese. $3 extra is too much for one patty and one slice of cheese. It was a really tasty burger though. The burger I had for lunch today was awful and I couldn't even finish it.

Well nothings ever definite. What If they double the price or something? Even if the probability is 99.99% that's still not definite.

He did mention that it's only one more year before he'll advance to the next tier of CB passes. So I'm kind of surprised that he's not doing it the other way around. I.e. get CB for another year, and only then switch to BM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's dumb considering Blue opens before Camelback..has lots of people to ski with, has longer and more interesting runs and way way better snowmaking.

I was astonished when I came across this old school trip report. https://www.paskiandride.com/forums/topic/13848-tr-camelback-3-28-2009/ I love how it says you guys "tackled the steeps". Yeah, yeah, I'll probably get a Blue pass and see how I like it next season (and starting this Feb). I believe CB is $399 and Blue is $449, so it's only $50 more. Next year CB will be $599 for me.

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 9, 2018 Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 Salty try a ribeye steak cooked medium sometime..expense it to your employer. Longhorn steakhouse is probably cheap enough...good bread there and the bread is free. There's also free bread at the Outback 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a really tasty burger though. The burger I had for lunch today was awful and I couldn't even finish it. This is not good logic. If you're establishing the price of a patty plus slice of cheese at $3, let's assume .25 for the cheese, meaning the patty is $2.75. You got one patty and a bun for $4.99, so the bun cost $2.24. Hope it was a hell of a bun. The extra patty and the cheese for $3 is the only way to prorate the cost of the bun to make the sandwich a good value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
