@JFskiDan, @AtomicSkier, and I are all enroot to SLC right now. Should be a great trip away from the beast coast and skiing on some real snow. Likely will be returning with goggle tans and hangovers. Sitting in Denver airport now, at a bar that couldn’t be more fitting for a PASR trip : Root Down. Stay tuned for updates.

Park city ? Are you high ? I'm not judging but Park City is like the worst mtn in UT and my cousins wife has a big ass house on the hill and we still went other places. Jup is ok but it's advanced meadow skipping. If you go to UT at least get in the canyons, Brighton is a fucking gem if you know where to go, it holds snow forever. Solly is it's slightly more popular neighbor with excellent trees and pow pow. LCC do I even have to type anything out ? The bird is the fucking word. You ain't never ridden something like Hidden Canyon at Brighton or mineral at the bird. Park City is a slightly taller VT, it's conjoined twin the Canyons is really VT outside of 9990. I know you've seen there pretty sweet parks in mags and shit but are you really going to UT to ride park 24/7 ? The answer to that question should unequivocally be no, you want to get utarted with the kind of snow that is so fucking deep you seriously consider quitting your job and just never going home. The kind of diamond dust that blows up under your helmet, were 20ft cliff drops to bonk is a pooof. UT would be 1.Bird 2. Brighton 3. Snowbasin 4. Solly 5. Alta 6. Pow Mow (much higher if the snow is right) 7. Deer Valley (higher if your mom is going and doesn't want to carry her skis) 8. Brians Head 9. Park City/Sundance Your actual best bet would be to hit up Barb on CB. Crusty butt will check if you have the skills to pay the bills. That hill is steep, almost the bird kinda consistently steep, the town is fucking dope, that thai place is legit, the vibe is awesome and you have somebody offering you a legit hook up to keep those bills down. If you rip big fucking arcs down Bannana and that ain't enough for you well then jackson is a logical step up. Plus CB you can drive to other hills in the area. That's just my useless two cents but Park City ? You gotta be sniffing glue.

western trip #2 for this season in the works as we speak. looking like 2 days at snowbird and 2 days at snowbasin. there are motels in odgen for $40

Just what I like to see, currently 41 in Palmerton and that's gonna be the high for the day at 5AM.

Let’s play a game. There are no prizes. Make your best guess on who will be the first to: First to crash First proper tomahawk First skier in an instafamous-worthy photo First polygamy porter consumed First pro call out First to pass out drunk at an inopportune time First to clog a toilet First to clear out the hot tub due to last nights beer farts Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have fun, but be very careful in the cafeteria at Deer Valley. The floor is very slippery.

Park City is like VT? I'm in.

It's freaking cold and windy, but it's worth it. Lazy is the best - white, smooth and fast, like a race course. Hard base with a little bit of fine sugar on top. Not quite icy yet, but makes you start worrying about sharpening those edges. BMR is using it to get down to the Falls that they've taken all to themselves. Paradise is in worse shape with several dirt spots and even rocks showing. Worst part is that it's all visible in daylight only, so my poor skis... Bunch of ski clubs showed up, sometimes it gets crowded and you have to wait to get on the lift. Some snowmaking, but nothing in your face yet. The wind is really the worst part of the night. Once you get to the lower Lazy it hits you in the face and you feel like a parachute opens out of the blue.

Thanks so much for reminding us, as if we’ve not been skiing the same trails over and over and over again. ;-) At least Tarpon escaped from Groundhog Day for a while! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Same.

safe travels, Ladies. You guys really haven't skied yet this year. I foresee premature full frontal ejection.

How is it...sorry I couldn’t join you had to get my hair did and practice for karaoke.

Of course I am, its more fun that way but there is an element of truth. The bottom of the caynons resort looks like VT. Parts of Park City ski like VT, short blips and then meandering. PC is a world class hill surrounded by even better world class hills. I know he's going to Jackson he told us Sunday. But if someone else was going to UT just to go to PC i sure hope somebody would have said hey this is pretty amazing but it's waaaay more interesting like 30 mins that way. That's all I'm saying but the spicy version lol

did you just lose your job?

Are you gonna stay in one of the $40 motels?? Maybe VTMark will tag along since he’s making mad loot in crypto

Except McDonald's PlayPlace. The outdoor ones with the Grimace jail and the Mayor McCheese tower thingy destroyed the habitrail crap the kids these days have

Vintage Doug here exercising his unofficial Stat Manager powers. SaltLick get it together

Ok.

Wait, who is on this trip? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This dude I have not seen in years. He used to roll with the young hottie in pink hair

IDK what part of PA those ski club kids came from, but it was apparently their first trip to Blue this year... All I could here between 4 and 4:30 was "oh, shoot, Sidewinder isn't open yet", "maaaan, that one is closed too", "I paid gazzilion dollars for THIS?"

No, just no. Blue did survive but it’s like they got the snot kicked out them in a street brawl. Fuckin Groundhog Day since November. But this cold snap though! (Fist pump!)

Tomorrow night touch the Sky. Dress like an astronaut. Winter is back.

Ant man, TP4, whoever wants to stay fine by me. My Ouray trip is 1/24-1/27. I blocked out a few days before that in CB to break up the drive. Long ass drive to Ouray. And yes, the “blonde” will be there. She was with me on Jones Pass the other day too.

Likewise

I’m not cold. Windy tho Lazy is nice. So is upper main.

I bet the wind on Lazy reminds you of Russia

I’m here until at least 7 Razors just lit up. ❤️

Shitty situation so far for Blue. We're in baller mode and getting spooged in powder.

Yeah, don't get kidnapped and taken to the underground tunnels!

I’ll invite you to Chili’s sometime for inauthentic TexMex

I hope you have a coupon, they are more than $25

Which way is the park?

Let's also not forget to notice that the land along the access road up top is subdivided into lots. My best guess would be that those are meant to sell at some point. If the long term plan was for Blue to build a condo complex or even townhomes there they would not subdivide the land like that. They are clearly thinking that each lot would be built on and deeded separately.

There are two people whose opinion I trust most when it comes to skiing....myself and VTMark...but JohnnyLaw is a close third. If JohnnyLaw says it's VT...it must be VT. He fucking loves VT almost as much as I do.

Maybe in about 8-10 days.

hahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Nice, new page for Salty. https://www.skibluemt.com/media/5129/condition-report-1-9-19.pdf

Seems a bit windy, but sure beats rain and warm temps 👍👍

Finally got a chance to read this and it went about as poorly as possible. sheeeesh.

Hope you are tits deep! Enjoy!

For some reason I thought they owned more to the east of that, but I guess not. Still nice to see how much they own. I think they should move tubing to the top where they were going to put the water park near those parking lots and then use the tubing for the expansion around the ponds and off of paradise and new trail coming soon.

I don’t ski with anyone here, but sometimes I ski behind them 😂🤣😂
