bermbuster49 Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 Bears big park is hardly ever crowded, lift lines are almost always short, and the scene goes off, Im the TP manager there and i gotta say this season will take everyones image of bear from great to spectacular, and age wise, most of our scene is getting to be older guys know, ill be 22 in winter and alot of others are in the 20s, youll prolly feel ryte at home, not to mention come up when it dumps at bear, its incredible how it always snows so much on the mtn even if its only calling for a lil bit, i guess its the whole bowl idea, its always deep and if you follow tracks off trail, mostly triple side and near sasquatch theres some tech lines and snow just gets deep in there! Eitherway, theres a ton of good times to be had at Bear, if anything id say avoid blue for ice and lift lines from hell but thats just me, either way GO BC CREW lol yea man deff. not crowded, especially night time, around closing there are neeever any lines. but yeah theres so many chill/good people there its sick, and our park kills all. but i agree when it snows at bear, it snows! the trip gets deep somedays just from them blowing snow! i remember one day it was really soft grainy ice powder, that was like 6 inches deep and your skis would like sink in it, but yeah the trip is fun if you want to get away from the park, theres some sweet woods lines we found this last winter, one that you get to ollie a downed tree and then drop out of the woods like 10 feet. but yeaaah... i'll be at the festival. BC-Crew whaaa? hahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Iron Works Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 hey jarod if you wanna ski the knar hit up inbetween sasquatch and extreme, manditory treeslides to drops and stuff like that, mad steep plenty of drops, u name it, and if you wanna challenge hit it at nyte, but i wanted to warn you about that line you mentioned, there is a 480 power line exposed ryte in the path you ski, of course your chance of getting zapped is small but if everything go ryte it could throw you pretty far i stay away from that one though it is fun! im thinking about getting some pow boards just for snow storms up there theyd actually be used pretty often and i have a feeling were getting one good dump a week this year or shall i say prayin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papasteeze Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Thanks again for all of the feedback...I've all but made up my mind to go with BC. Plan on stopping by this weekend to get a feel for the place before I pull the trigger, but it seems like it'll be the way to go for me. DID you stop by?

Damien Posted November 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 DID you stop by? I did, but I literally just stopped by...took a quick look around and bought my pass. I was alone and felt like a tool just aimlessly wandering about. I'm sure that I made the right decision about BC though...I can't wait.

poconoceancity Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 I did, but I literally just stopped by...took a quick look around and bought my pass. I was alone and felt like a tool just aimlessly wandering about. I'm sure that I made the right decision about BC though...I can't wait. When I first got there I was alone too, so I went to the upstairs bar had a beer and looked out onto the slopes and saw a bunch of maniacs grass skiing. I knew they had to be from PASR. Then I went down and met them all. All were good guys, I'm looking forward to making turns with them and meeting more members as the season starts and progresses.

Damn...didn't event think that the bar might be open...oh well. I'll be out there every weekend soon enough - I'm sure that I'll get to meet some of the people on here once the season gets poppin'.

Ski Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 510, from their site. Just some numbers: Vertical BC= 510 ft CB= 800 ft Montage= 1000 ft. Blue= 1082 ft Acres BC= 90 CB= 139 Montage= 140 Blue= 100 Base elevation BC= 600 CB= 1239 Montage= 1000 Blue= 457 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue= 1082 ft Acres BC= 90 CB= 139 Montage= 140 Blue= 100 Base elevation BC= 600 CB= 1239 Montage= 1000 Blue= 457 Does blue really have a base elevation lower then BC? That's really odd... Montage rocks though, I look forward to that PASR day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 I knew that Montage had more vert than most mountains, but no idea that they have more acreage. Thats pretty impressive. I would never guess that though, CB just seems so huge compared to Montage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 All that space on Upper Runaway and Upper Fast Track at Montage really add up, I guess. Blue's diamonds are much longer and so it skis much bigger than Montage. But, yeah, it's listed as a 457 elevation. Mountain Creek is just 440 ft at base elevation, btw. It'd be kind of cool to put together a complete comparison chart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only ones that bite here are my one nutty kid and I keep him on a leash It's cool to meet people in person after chatting with them on line.. It was pretty funny when AtomicSkier showed up and no one recognized him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 It was pretty funny when AtomicSkier showed up and no one recognized him. I'm used to him decked out in red and black with atomic's somewhere nearby. Seeing him in a t-shirt and shorts... especially after we thought he wasn't coming threw me off guard. I'm not sure what everyone elses excuse is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Posted November 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 You shouldn't have been so shy!! Yeah, I know...I would've hung at least stopped by the bar and hung around for a bit if I had realized that it was open, but I just saw a bunch of families and stuff and felt kinda out of place.

It was pretty funny when AtomicSkier showed up and no one recognized him. I recignized him...but then again I did see him in shorts at the beginning of the summer....

Papasteeze Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 For some reason I think Camelback does about 300K skier visits and Seven Springs does like 450K skier visits. This is from fuzzy memories of ski magazine articles. Hmmmm - could be, my info may have only been related to Pocono Mountain. haha steven!!? lol he is a nutt but ya gotta love him lol The kid is off the hook this year. It was funny to watch him helping customers in the Ski Bum last night. "Hello? Ski Bum.... Nipples here, Can I help you?" His enthusiasm for the sport is infectuous!!
