Well already had coffee while sitting in my recliner reading the Sunday paper, so the most fun part of my day is already over, though I saved the funnies for later this afternoon. My favorite comic is Beetle Bailey. Edited February 25, 2018 by saltyant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my dream job. I will make a concerted effort to get up/down to Blue one more time this season, but sounds like time is running out since you predicted their closure in 2 weeks. Yesterday the forecast was calling for 5-8 inches next weekend, but now it's changed to all r***.

saltyant Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Just checked the Camelback webcam again. The only people visible are 2 ski patrollers. What a difference from last week when traffic was literally backed up to I-80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I did it on foot with a pullcart a bag...it was cool I had like $8,000 saved by the time I was 15 then I also worked at Rita's Italian ice, Wendy's, mowed lawns and did telemarketing late in high school and early in college. Funny this is the summer before college I saved up $4,000 from my telemarketing job and if I had put that in Amazon stock, it would be work $8 million today. http://articles.mcall.com/1995-06-08/news/3031718_1_ski-areas-carriers-call 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be wet snow but I still doubt that as perder even though a midgets fart won't displace an acr or it like cold smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enjoralas Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Skipping it today. Pops not feeling well and the conditions up there look like shit on the webcams. No desire to ski through standing water or slush ponds. Incidentally, does the base webcam just constantly slowly turn itself away from the slopes? Was a great view a couple hours ago, and now it's a wall. Not the first time I've seen that. I'd like to think that management isn't coming out and turning it to the wall so people won't see how empty it is and/or poor conditions, but I also don't put that sort of thing past Camelback management. EDIT: It's back to a mountain view again. I guess someone went out and moved it. Edited February 25, 2018 by enjoralas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't blame you one bit. Looks downright miserable out there today. Interested to see if Ski2Live is still going (guessing no). The webcam always does that. Sometimes you can't even see anything but the wall. It's really dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should get pretty nice in about 2 hours, weather-wise, but the snow still looks like it will be awful. I'd be there if my dad didn't have a head cold though. I didn't ski at all this weekend. Kicking myself for not hitting Blue yesterday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you still have the pin? What "an prize" did you win? Wow, you were negotiating the expert slopes at Blue when I was in kindergarten.

Wow, you were negotiating the expert slopes at Blue when I was in kindergarten. I don't remember the prize but I did receive a few savings bonds for perfect service. I didn't miss a house for several months straight until I had a substitute who missed a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted February 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Nah bagged it. Hard to set out in rain, knowing it is raining at your destination and counting on it stopping. Much easier getting it in pre rain yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
