You're welcome and anytime.

They could call it “Taint.” Cause using a Razor in that area is always a Challenge.

IDK. I'm not sure anyone is judging ones style or ability; moreso the morphing of skiing into a cost / benefit analysis ad nauseum. It's obviously ok to to discuss and share deals; but when skiing is constantly talked about as if it were some sort of IRS publication thread after thread, people (especially die hards on a ski forum) are gonna be put off.

How someone gets to your age with such little understanding is beyond me. Life is not about maximizing roi, money itself is nothing more than a tool, a group delusion we all participate in. Its certainly your right to take such an accountants view of buying a pass but ultimatley its something you can't understand and what makes you a shitty skier. Skiing is not about edge angles and turn radius, those things are actually simple. Skiing isnt from the mind but from the soul. You can think all day about laying arcs and nothing happens, it's a doing and like Zen Buddhism says doing and thinking aren't the same thing. To you the lot is a place to get some free meat but for us it's the equivalent of the town square. A place where like minded individuals although different in many ways can come together to have a good time. Other people that ski blue 3 times a week and can talk for five minutes about lower main st. Community, our tribe, now that is pretty rare in this world, infinitely rarer than a thousand bucks So no slightly cheaper access to mtns I already have access to is not worth that community but based on the way you ski that's not something you'll be able to understand. Its passionless, ski by numbers.

I took the day off today. So glad I did. Nice snow, sun, tailgating.

Decided to pull the trigger in the Zelda’s. Every shop in town is out of stock. The place I rented them from gave me a really good deal on the demos with skins. At the very least now I can go play around in the snow whenever I want. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Nice sunny morning at Blue. I got there at 930 to find only the Quad running. Later I learned that the Six was running but needed maintenance. Snow was good, smooth grippy. Razors was my ROTD with Sidewinder a close 2nd. Never crowded. The nice warm sun was the highlights of the day. I did 16 runs and left. I’m happy to see SP being ultra cautious with the markers [emoji106] Almost killed the guy taking a break just below the lip. Popped off a little air and landed about a foot off hit tails.

Give it a whirl on AZ and see what the response is then. Better yet try TGR. I'm sure they'll provide loads of helpful advice.

Lot of people go back out for a second session on party day too.

8”-10” sleeper storm.

All that limited quantity talk had me worried, so I punched it.

They should name the bumps so they can have 40 trails for at least a couple weeks. They could call it Razor Burn

I wouldn’t blame the person who hit me. I was also 15 feet from the bottom, not 15 feet from the top. And the slope was moguled to shit, and not smooth cord. So yeah.

Shut up Eaf.

I don't want a high five from your dick hands.

QUOITS This is PA

As opposed to the super deep perdur you're used to shredding?

Touring around RMNP sounds like a ton of fun. Take pictures!

They didn’t have to sedate you to scan your cat, did they? Just sayin’, it might not have been the medication . . .

Looks terrible. Hope you stay safe inside.

I had some medicine once before a CAT scan that made my anus and throat burn.

What an absolutely gorgeous evening out here. No buses, low crowds, spring like snow... Choppy in spots. Fast in others. Great night

It was like this but the bridge was Tuts Lane..kept phone in car..Free Bobby Schmurda!!!

Awesome sunset pictures!

It’s not very ladylike to laugh at this... but it is funny.

After 2 rounds Team PA Ski and Ride Dot Com is tied for second with a couple other teams, but only one point back. This doesn’t bode well for our heros, as we have to build a big lead to survive the looming Name That Tune round. There’s about 7 or 8 teams here tonight. A few teams of 4, a few 5 or 6, and a couple of 8 or 9. And me and Pops.

Correct.

I always check myself before I wreck someone else on the falls. I seriously do not trust people on there. Which sucks. I remember the glory day of slamming down Cannonball as fast as Issac Newton let me go and just floating off the top of every headwall. C'est la Vie

That’s no way to talk about my girlfriends.

I’m not gonna be on the snow till about 7ish. I would come earlier if NMSki was in the lower lot in his tighty whities..I’ll do trivia with you two sometime after ski season is over either at Blue or you two can venture down to the west end of Allentown..

I am not suggesting they stop making snow. I would suggest they leave some trails ungroomed to bump up naturally. And I feel the small and not great glades, when snow is such that they are enjoyable to ski, at least provide a slight change from what is otherwise pretty dull as skiing experiences go, though there is nothing better as close to my house.

no way. Stump.

Wrong. The game of washers. http://www.originalwashers.com/rules.shtml

I’m planning on a brisket and some pulled pork, some hanger steak. Some sweet Italian sausage. Probably some onions for the sausages since I have the flattop. Some sort of flatbread. Maybe some other assorted goodies. Pancakes and probably eggs for breakfast, again, flattop. Creme brûlée for dessert. My friend Jeremy is bringing some sort of marinated chicken for the grill. I’ll have the usual grill and the new flattop, as well as the little smoker cabinet. Probably won’t have the Sous vide in the lot. Haven’t pulled the trigger on a generator, haven’t been able to justify the expense to myself yet, lol. Will have a couple 6 foot tables and a 10 x 12 ez up which should guarantee a rain free event. should I bring the cornhole boards?

The medicine was probably general anesthesia and that feeling was probably from Jerome... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've had that too!

I'm sure many of you are better skiers than I and am certain many of you have skied more than I. I'm not the best skier on the mountain, and really have never had any lessons to speak of, but I dont appreciate the gratuitous uninformed insults. I ski about everything there is to ski everywhere I go. The last thing I do while skiing is think about turn radius or edge angle. I ski down the mountain in the way that gives me the most pleasure to do so. If I am on my own I am listening to music and feel like I am dancing down the mountain to it. If I am with my kids my focus is on making sure they are doing well, that I am positioned to help them if they should need it, and giving them tips where it seems appropriate.

I seem to gravitate toward purple. I have 4 purple jackets.

Plus they're purple

Drop it from a lift period. Good luck. Luckily I'm not a dumbass. Off to blue baumer for epic glade skiing....

I'll bring some if anybody wants them. I have some bangin' spicy buffalo veggie burgers. I also have some pretty good salmon burgers.

Lorena Bobbitt is bringing sliced PP.

Things have firmed up since the sun went down (that's what she said). Wow toast and Dan. I see you throwing shade

You do not want Vail or any other corporation buy Blue......Everything will change... I was riding at BC/Doe Mountain ever since they opened it to snowboarding...Taught there for like 13 years.... Doe Mountain was a total shit hole by anybodies standards....but it was ours....You could pretty much do whatever you wanted to. Kinda what you guys have at Blue When Doe Mountain got sold,everything changed...Sure the snow was way better,but way more people...way more expensive...cameras everywhere...No more fun....It totally harshed our buzz... So....You do not want Blue to be sold....Just my two cents... .

Plus it’s nice to have someone hold down base camp, What with leaving a bunch of cookery out.

I would be fucking pissed of if I was the twin who didn’t get the season pass and had to use other twins or dads buddy pass like a Jerry.

Just from reading Alpine Zone Hunter seems like a legitimately dangerous place to ride on a Saturday. Sounds like they consistently have terrible conditions which ill suspect is snow being scrapped off by 10am and its sheets of ice after that. Ill be sticking to weekdays and early/late season weekends. Not to mention a freakin lifty ODed in one of the lift sheds....WTF?

Don't remember exactly but I am pretty sure we did not have a color TV until I was a teenager. The U on a TV as NMSki said was for UHF, a TV with that was exotic, 3, 6, and 10 was it at our house. We had rotary phones for a long time, impossible to win a radio call in contest with them.

That's all there was when we were kids. And there were five of us, so if you wanted privacy you had to stretch the cord out the back door and just deal with the weather. It literally took physical effort to dial a number.
