I don’t believe so since it took the footprint of the former ‘warming hut’ for ski school. I don’t frequent that part of the parking lot enough but I think it’s still the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mute1080 Posted January 14, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Fun morning with the family before the crowds. Skied until 930ish and then came back out for the new lift. Got to share a beer with @mbike-skifor the first ride 🍻 8 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 @saltyantthanks for starting the report thread for today. I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning but finally arose from my slumber at 6:23AM…I shit, brushed my teeth, put in my contacts and got dressed and was on the road by 645am. I arrived at the lower lot at 7:20am and it was in the upper 20s under cloudy sky’s with moderate winds. In the house was everybody except Atomic Jeff, Toast, Justo, KevinThomas, Rose, Schifdawg, Kyle, Ski2Live and Eaf. First run on Razors was better than expected 7 out of 10 with ok grooming and surface. Next up was Main Street which was fantastic on the top and bottom half was sort of choppy and brown. Paradise had ok snow but crowded. I mainly skied Main Street and also did a run on Burma which had nice fresh man made silk Poe. I wanted to take the new chair but wasn’t that thrilled with conditions so quit around 925am and some PASRs hanging in the lot and most headed out for opening remarks and the new lift. The new lift seemed to stop a lot and when I left Blue a bit before noon, it wasn’t running and nobody was on it. Not to worry, new lifts come with a 30 day warranty. All in all I got some ok runs in and had fun hanging with the PASRs. Ski most of you tomorrow. Also snowguns we’re on the entire time I was there on nightmare to dreamweaver and coming soon. It’s still below freezing in Allentown. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidgeRacer Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Conditions were kind of meh. First run on razors was decent but everything loosened up rather quickly and the sugar was vast. Upper main was decent, lower was a disaster. Lazy was brown. Upper para was good. Lower was crap. They're so thin everywhere but where were they making snow? Coming soon (fine), NMDW (probably for the park), and Yeti. It didn't make any sense to me. Either way today was about the new lift. Ben, Glenn and I scored 3rd chair (second if you don't count the winners). Once the main street express opened the line at the 6 became non existent. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Law Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 I played the most dangerous game and ended up sleeping until 620 but was only 2 or 3 minutes behind. Snow was just ok but I think we are now at the point we just have to happy to have some. I expected more theatrics for the new lift, I would have done it at night so you can really see all the fireworks and lasers throw in some dry firing cannons and solid gold dancers and now that's a way to open a lift 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, once the contractors move all their gear out. Some parts left over laid down near the main road. One run on Razors and one on Main, and then I called it a day.

PSUFrankenstein Posted January 15, 2023 Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 First run on razors was pretty good. The mini rollers at the end of lazy were interesting...as well as the push piles on main street. Rode the new lift which was kinda exciting I guess...hopefully will keep lift lines down as long as they are running the six pack too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momskeeztoo Posted January 15, 2023 Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 So conditions kind of meh? Not sure I want to drive up there tomorrow for 8 runs. I’m off Tuesday Wednesday Thursday. Maybe I’ll hold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get it while you can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think tomorrows conditions will be better than today but a lot of people for not a lot of terrain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get it while you can. I propose the public gets to ride Razor's Edge every other weekend, and the race team can get some other trail like School Hill or Pioneer Pass.
