GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Hey All, I'm back from another fun session at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the lower lot around 725am and it was foggy with the temperature of around 38 degrees. In the house were Atomic Jeff, JFDan, Johnny Law, Ryan, MBike Mike, Eaf, Matt Edge, TheDude4bides, GSSucks, Toast, Justo, TheRealKT, Slim, Kevin, Gary, West Chester homeys and many others. First run on razors was pretty fast and smooth and semi soft. Sidewinder was smooth and lots of instructors working on that perfect slow deliberate turn. Paradise was super nice semi spring snow and nightmare to Dreamweaver was now smooth no more skiercross course. Switchback I skied a bunch was mainly empty. Upper Main Street was good and lower not so much. Lazy mile wasn't crazy as crowds were non existent. Skied 8-10 and then hungout in the lot 10-12..blue closes today at 4PM and is closed all day tomorrow due to the impending rainfall. They'll survive this week fine with their base but if it's warm much more I see them closing in about two weeks. Let's hope for a nice cold spell and or snowfall or that blue will do some creative grooming to cover up thin and bare spots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toast21602 Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 It is amazing how shitty it can go from last Sunday's pristine groomers to today's crap. Lets hope they can make it a bit longer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaf Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 I still liked it. GSS's "better than expected" is right on the money. It was worse on Wed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Had fun. Got two lift tix for others with my PS&R card, getting them in for $50 and effectively knocking the price of my pass down to $349 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to talk end of season, but I hope we can set a date for Gaper Day soon. I need to figure out when to use these other 2 CB days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidgeRacer Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 How much in the way if thin / bare is there? I'm really hoping I haven't skied my last day at Blue (or anywhere) this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow sets up a little but still stays soft and carvable. Looking at webcams they're good for another two weeks at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
