GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Hey All, I’m back from a fun session at Blue mountain the true mountain. Temperatures were in the 30s with increasing clouds. In the house were Toast, Atomic Jeff, Indiggio, Ryan, Mixilplix, Mute, BenM, Enjorales, BenM, TP4, Schifdawg, JFDan, Bethlehem Ford Guy, Slim, Gary..and many others. First run bypassed the front face for paradise and was good..stiff cord pretty smooth..lazy wasn’t that good and falls was shit..homestretch a sandy pit but they blew a skiff of snow in the valley. Nightmare is now closed and did paraweaver a few times. Main Street was nice solid snow and a little rolly Polly on the bottom half. Did my first and prob last Burma of the season. All of Burma no yeti shit or cutover from midway..I’m not about that Lyfe.. Conditions werent that good today but also not that good...parking lot was fun..rain started falling lightly. Looking like a washout tomorrow but you never know could be a good window of weather. Crowds today were like a normal Friday.. a bit mor then weekday but not as much as a weekend.

Mixilplix Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 DW and Main st. where pretty good...I didn't even find Challenge all that bad...Falls sucked along with Lazy....Rain let up just enough when I got home to wash all the road dirt/salt off of the car...but I'm sure it will be back on tomorrow..... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiggio Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 The grooming on Razor's and Challenge was horrendous. Leaving piles/ridges/ruts on those slopes in particular is not safe at all. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momskeeztoo Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Challenge it self wasn’t bad. The Falls was wretched. Dreamweaver definitely ROTD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main Street and Dreamweaver were pretty good. I think they’re doing good considering the warm weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been many years that we've had roller-coaster temperature swings and the grooming wasn't this bad. Need to start a Facebook campaign to get the grooming back up to par.

toast21602 Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 They are closing at 4 today. Would have been better off opening late rather than closing early. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidgeRacer Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 Yeah, not sure why folks get confused about that. Must be huffing glue. They just love that 4pm close when it rains regardless of the hourly forecast I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 I would imagine the blanket 4pm closing has more to do with staffing than anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. It always seems like PARidge plans on skiing the nights that blue closes early. Rain seems to be almost done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
