GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 Hey All, I’m back from another morning session at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the lower lot at 7:17AM and it was overcast with a temperature in the upper 20s. In the house were Atomic jeff, JFDan, Mixilplix, BenM, Justo, Enjorales cousin, Indiggio, Bethlehem Ford Guy and many others. First civilian six pack coated in fresh manmade Poe. Razors was closed from the start and not groomed and first run on Challenge was frozen and not that smooth..upper Main Street was the run of the day was better than a lot of western groomers..nice smooth and semi firm with a little cushion for the pushing. A gun midway down main street blowing out wet snot and lower Main Street was rolly Polly and not good..Jlaw would have called it spicy. Nightmare dreamweaver was similar conditions to challenge with some churned up cookies..paradise was not bad and not good..so mostly skied Main Street the rest of the time with one run on switchback which was ok top 3/4 firm and smooth and bottom rolly polly..last run was tuts lane to connector to come around to midway to little gap to shuttle to lower park. Midway had fantastic snow..skied 8 runs from 8-920 and hungout in the lot for about a half hour. All in all upper Main Street made up for the variable conditions on the rest of the hill. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mixilplix Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 Put the skis on today....Lots of varying conditions on just about every trail....Conditions on Paradise seem to have gotten worse by the day...NM/DW was slick/rutted/cookied up...Upper Main was good...but Lower Main was cleaned off waves of slick snow/ice......Midway was super fun..nice soft snow...but then it dumped you into Lower Main..Lazy was just OK.... But shouldn't be bitchin cause it's better than not skiing/boarding..... 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 I failed to mention that the snowmaking cannons continue to blast on Central Park, lower sidewinder and sidewinder. Makes for a loud ride up the six pack so the quad is a nice alternative and has been opening by 830. They had a funky maze setup today if you didn’t go in VIP..

indiggio Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 ROTD was definitely Barney's. They blew a fresh new layer in them and were spectacular from the get go until the crowds got to them. Within a couple hours, all the fresh was scraped out of the troughs and the bumps became gigantic. Unfortunately if we do get some rain, they're going to turn into giant icebergs. ☹️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
