hey its only been 2 years. doing alright. got two vans at least. Just cold right now

Temp at 8* when we started. Brisk 20+ mph winds. Triple layer player. On mountain at 10:15. About 30 season passholders and 30 ticket purchasers. Conditions were firm with decent cord, no cookies, and some blown powder. Skied all open trails (9) really only three from the top. Trails of the day we're upper Tunk and Susquehanna. Needless to say, No Lift Lines... Sun is now out. Beer is cold and tasty.

this is flask weather.

Generally, most of the women attracted to me do suffer from one type of disorder or another. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You would still be stuck in HBB if you skied it.

mantras are the only skis i know, thus what i always recommend

I'll be skiing under zee lights for the first time this season in a couple hours.

So GSS may be a zinc-ie?

Zinc-ies have to be from that area but not all people from that area are Zinc-ies, its the LV equivalent of Reading's Mushroom pickers. I'm not sure exactly how to describe them but there is a certain subset of people at blue that you can just tell are Zinc-ies. It's kinda like a townie but more redneck less wanna be gangster. If you met that instructor girl last year that was straight up thirsty for it (particuarly NMSKI lol) she was a Zinc-ie though maybe slightly too educated. A good clue your talking to a Zinc-ie is when the conversation is over and your main thought is WTF.

This is scary accurate.....I'd add the sketchiest run on the hill is the burma lift line, bigger than it looks drop to cinder block filled gully, toast almost took my head off....most difficult thing I've ever done on boots is shit in the old Killington bathrooms at Ramshead IIRC, shitter was like on the floor which with boots on put you in this like aggressive hover/squat technique and the door was .7 inches away from the end of the toilet. If you gotta drop the cosby kids off while skiing that's an automatic level 4 because it's going to take at least 3mins to get all your gear off now imagine you ski all day and you can't even take a load off when your taking a dump, I mean all the shitting angles were just way off......if I was smart I think I would have crafted a couple of prusik like devices out of TP and shit in comfort.......

You did not do Honeybee bowl. Trust me.

Nastar Glenn is in charge of the music..NMSki is bringing a table...SaltyAnt is bringing his virtual reality goggles which he wears at Camelback.

I think you mean rahtard.

I keep threatening him I’m gonna hide them chronics

Wow dude. I'm feeling some kinda way. I met you opening day at Blue. Jeff introduced me to you.

looks good up there in VT!

I looked it up on google and first response was this.

I see what you did there. Good one.

Widowmaker should be a double black.....always titties deep with pow. Most average skiers at Blue dont carry avy gear. Somewhere off of Burma should be marked as a black diamond as well. Where switchback meets main street should be a double black, usually after about 10 am on a weekend. This should probably apply to the top of Falls too. The new trail will be a double black as well, i am sure of it. Honeybee bowl is a black or double black. Maybe triple black. take your pick.

Just stuff your shirt with newspaper. Homeless guys swear by it, no one knows how to stay warm like those guys.

Why would you defend Camelback? It sucks.

That is why they are the best mountain in PA and NJ.

cant do anything but salute blue for their effort so far. as much as i like to moan and bitch, all in all they run a pretty good ship. they've been on top of their game this year. should pay off for them with a busy Christmas week.

Looking forward to your TR.

I never wanna be mean to people if it ever comes across as that online just know that I joke a lot.

Beautiful chilly morning at Blue today. Vista is nice, predictable. Midway was surprising nice today with a lot of blower fan gun Pocono powder over the lower half of the trail. Lazy once again has the nicest snow, rotd. Come Around stayed nice, not a lot of park rats out in 20°F weather. Upper Main St is still a giant field of marbles. Maybe they don’t have the setting on the new groomer tweaked out yet. Later in the morning it got a little better once the sun baked it a little. 15 runs in 2:20. Felt great to be on the Mantras and open the speed up with nobody on the slopes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Mantras are not powder skis. They are stiff and turny

Skifreak you don't even ski so shut the fuck up.

hahahahhaha I know Palmerton is where the zinc mine was, it's still a huge superfund clean up but I assume all super close area natives are zinc-ies

Wait till everything is open Nah, I'll go tonight and when everything is open. It's not like I have anything better to do.

You know it's only a mile and a half walk up blue mountain drive.

Off to Blue for dress like an astronaut day.

Thanks Dan I think I did honeybee bowl once. Wow didnt realize it was actually a double or triple black, now I'm ready to do any double black in Utah or Co.

Haha... All of this blue square, black diamond talk for PA is silly. Remember when Camelback used to have double squares?

Just catching up on my PASR reading. This place is amazing.

keep the faith brother. think positive.

I can't find that info. Camelback has 166 acres of terrain and Blue has 162 acres therefore Camelback is better.

Zero steps once the lower lot opens. Heck on a pow day you can ski to your car.

Wow it went from a Blue to a black..was there some major geologic event which made the mountain steeper??

He already explained this.

The PA liquor control board does not allow bars to sell any alcohol below cost so they can sell domestic drafts for $1 but can't sell Guinness draft for $1 as a bars cost is about $1.50ish per pint on Guinness. Selling $2 IPAs is smart..some people will end up ordering more expensive mixed drinks or shots or food...

Owner and operator. If you would sell it, you could make dozens on dollars. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That is what you expect the inside of a ski chalet to look like.
