Saturday the 14”3th was slated to be the day we were headed to Killington. Now with Pops out of commission and me not feeling like making the trip solo, I think the family will be flying out of ABE for a whirlwind 3 day blitz of Disney World, lol. From snow to Florida sun, quite the switch in plans

Belle is 8 hr round trip for me...so not quite my backyard. I have other hobbies, but with a name like Live2Ski I understand you want 2 ski as much as possible. My username was going to be PSUFlyFishSnowboardDrinkBeerAndPoop but it wouldn't fit. Anyway post pics if you go. I like pictures and reports

There's a good chance I'll be there, but not to ski with you @Ski2Live Live2Ski. You can ski with me if you want tho.

Well, since you asked us so nicely...the answer is no. I just got back from a nice few days in Colorado and am more than happy finishing my season with that trip. I guess I'm just not hardcore enough.

A few pix from today.

damn this TR was slacking big time. 7 ski days and we heard about 2 of them. might be time to put toast in charge of PASR

QFT

If you weren't such a dick about it, maybe people will consider. Salty and Doug like dicks, so maybe they will join you.

They better put in more drains if they’re going to pave the bottom lot....you know...because of all the storm runoff.

As long as they don’t pave bottom lot or bottom lodge.

Hey All, I’m heading to Colorado on 4/15 to cap off a fun ski season. I land in Denver around 1130AM and am staying at the Silverthorne days inn..I got a good deal and my last stay at the Silver inn didn’t impress me as its not as nice as where I stay here in the A and they ran out of butter at the free breakfast and jelly on dry bagel is no bueno I might meet up with Barb at Winter Park, probably have a bacon Bloody Mary at the Abasin mid mountain lodge...it will definitely snow..I will definitely be both sweaty and cold in the same run...I’m also thinking of taking an Uber to Breckenridge one night and party rock a little. Any suggestions??? Since some of y’all like pictures here’s a few from my trip last April. Anyway today was the first day I was like fuck yeah I’m off work next week.

https://skimap.org And no. You cannot.

It’s my weekend to work, otherwise I’d probably be able to get one of the ladies I ski with to go.

Corn Horn will be blowing up here on Saturday, with a high of 60. It was 27' when I took those pix this AM. 25' currently.

STFU

Be sure to post the details in a separate thread and tag @saltyant

Are you going to go? or are you going to hang up your skis for 7.5 months until the almighty Peak Pass resorts open up?

I love the new terrain.. It's 2 minutes from my house so it's a game changer. Can slip out for lunch and make turns which is awesome. I rode it a ton last winter. Hardly anybody there when the front face has a crowd.. Is it a little about intermediate? Maybe.. But I like it... Sucks people died. I know the patroller that was attending on all of them. Sucks for him too.. Some video I took for the AZone people... Overlook - https://youtu.be/dnRDwaNjQfE Twilight - https://youtu.be/l5tu6mJFOmc

Why are you such a dick. Nobody want to join you except maybe @saltyant

@saltyant this is great.

Alterra looks to be buying camelback and vail is buying blue.

Camelback seems a much better fit for Vail. Wouldnt need to toss a bunch of money at it to bring the amenities up to a level that wouldnt tarnish the brand. Vail doesnt do wedding tents as ski lodges. I'll get a 2020 Epic pass in they acquire either.

For those playing along at home, that like the idea of the lower lot being paved - Just to throw down 1.5"-2" of blacktop on the lot to the right as you enter, and the interior of the lot on the left, inside the already paved ring road, would cost about $300,000. The entire lower lot, $600,000. But thats kind of a waste of money with what Toast mentioned above. They probably wouldnt be able to pull permits to pave unless they improved drainage and grade. Water that falls on blacktop has to go somewhere, and normally water that falls on your lot has to stay on your property, not run off into neighboring properties. Drainage, subgrade, stone, base and top, way, way, way over a million bucks. I guess the next time we are all stuck on the 6, or its moving 10' at a time, or its down for the day, we can at least talk about how kick ass the surface of the parking lot is if they were to pave it over fixing lifts/infrastructure first. .

It’s got the best run out of the front four.

Got almost 3" overnight and it started snowing again. Powdery goodness to boot!

They can use pavers...

Irrelevant for Lehigh valley folks. Blue is the minimum mountain I can fuck with. I tried fucking with camelback the other day and just doesn’t do it for me.

snowing steady with a coupla inches down already.

If both Blue and Camelback go on the EPIC pass, that would be like my dream.

I did look to see what Vail did with Okemo pass holders when the bought it last year and they did offer an upgrade option. https://www.epicpass.com/info/new-epic-resorts-faqs.aspx

Well based on the camelback rumors it does sound like the pass war is coming to PA.

Just count the change as two figures.

The simplicity is beautiful, but what I like the most is how sleek those bindings are. Can barely even see them.

These just arrived today....184cm, 99mm under foot, 22.6M turn radius. Should be playful.

Are you trying to mack on Tara? If so I'd clean up those responses a bit. "and who told you this" does not equate to additional text messages (among other things) from a girl who was clearly thinking about you. Unless Tara is your sister in which case it's fine.

Why do you think Salty is "too tired" or "wants to sleep in" instead of going skiing?

Says the guy who lives in a hotel.

That’s a new one.

Let’s hope...as I’m pushing 40 my sponsorship opportunities are becoming limited. It’s all about spin to win with the young jibhonks..in my day if you could do a parallel stem Christie and a wedal turn you got a level 2 pin to put on your parka.
