PSUFrankenstein Posted March 19 Report Posted March 19 Have fun Ridge Racer Conditions look nice today Old forge pizza good 1
RidgeRacer Posted March 19 Author Report Posted March 19 Ok enough haiku. Fun day but limited terrain. Trail map had boomer and WL open but that never materialized, at least not while I was there. So it was basically that one trail skiers left from the top and cannonball down low. Coverage was good and conditions were nice with a few lumps and bumps here and there. Stopped at Arcaro and Genell for a tray of red and a tray of sweet. Considered Maronis but it was out of the way. Overall fun day…the rib pain situation was wayyy better this morning and I barely felt it when skiing. Montage is always fun and only about 45 from my house. I always think about it when the $399 deal comes up but when I actually go and sit on those lifts I remember what I’m not missing. I will say though absolutely no litter though which is nice, unlike some other areas south of kunkletown and north Of the Lehigh Valley. All told fun day for sure and thanks again to PSU for the ticket. I’m looking forward to skiing a full mountain at. Blue this weekend. 4
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 19 Report Posted March 19 For me the comparative lack of lines on peak days make up for the slow lifts, but that doesn’t help on a thursday Bummer about the misleading report and very limited terrain
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 19 Report Posted March 19 Good move not getting pizza at Montage - it is truly the worst ski area food I have sampled - the sit down restaurant is decent there though
Icecoast Posted March 20 Report Posted March 20 I've must of been to montage at least 20 times over the past ten years, probably over 50 lifetime. I have never seen the long haul open. What the hell is the point of 1k vertical if you need two lifts which don't even load and unload near each other to do it? I doubt we will ever see a high speed put in there. but if they did I would gladly pay a bit more for their pass. 1
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 20 Report Posted March 20 (edited) Long Haul was open both times I went there this season only used it a couple times each trip though - Phoebe serves over 60% of the vertical which has 90% of the most fun trails Edited March 20 by Ski2Live Live2Ski
theprogram4 Posted March 20 Report Posted March 20 Somehow long haul has been open 4 of my 7 career days at montage 1 1 1

I should go sometime, it’s exactly an hour away from me.
enjoralas Posted March 20 Report Posted March 20 I think I only have 4 or 5 days total at Montage, but I think the Long Haul was running every time. If that fancy ski through hotel they dropped ever gets put in, I bet they get a high speed quad to replace the long haul 1
