Can’t really complain for November. The last storm didn’t bring much since it was pretty boney to begin with. But my friend and I had warm temps and sunshine, and of course the ever present park winds. Not bad in the trees but once you get back to the parking lot it’s always windy. Group coming up hot on our heels when we stopped to catch our breath. People really fly skinning up, hope that’s me someday. The sketchier or 2 creek crossings. Some guy flew past us and was quickly out of sight. Transitioning. None of my friends or myself are efficient at this yet. I want to try ripping off my skins with the skis still on, today was not the day. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hey All, I’m back from day 3 at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the upper lot around 810 and in the house were Johnny Law, BenM, Salty, JFDan, Toast, KevinThomas, Mute, Atomic Jeff, Mixilplix, Indiggio, Tarponhead, MBike Mike, Bethlehem ford guy, Eaf, West Chester homeys and many others. Temperatures were in the upper 20s to low 30s under partly sunny sky’s. The 9am opening meant for a lot of people at the rope drop. First run messed up lipstick on a pig second chair this time Main Street chair with Indiggio and some herb ate shit right out the gate skiing faster than his comfort zone. Next run on come around I caught some mad steezy air off the last roller..midway already getting a little rough from all the traffic and super loose granular. Third run on come around to midway choppity chop and not the good kind of chop. Ended up taking a vista lap with Salty and was the first in the lot. Five minutes later like 12 more PASRs in the lot. I hungout for about an hour some went back on the snow some including myself peaced out. It may be softening up some right now. Was good to get out. The base is holding up fantastic as well should be decent coverage still on Root Friday.

Should only take one time for you to listen.

FYI I’m not skiing tomorrow.

As always, good seeing you all. The snow was absolute piss, though.

So... not new gear, but the second pair of skis I bought. Went into the attic last week and got these out. Thought they may be good when conditions are super slick. I forgot how short they are though, only about up to my nose. And I’m only 5’3”. Any thoughts? I know crappy pics. I got them at Nestor’s in Quakertown 😂. Kinda gives you an idea how old they are.

Nice report Barb!!! Looks like a few snow chances for the Rockies coming. Remember this is all bonus skiing lol.

The following week looks better. Blue is lucky they have a lot of base. I’m confident they’ll be open next weekend.

Surely it must have been some magical fruit snacks. Come to think of it, Toast only told me to STFU just one time today.

Wow, you really were getting a Royal treatment today! Personal Vista tour, Shawnee ticketing advice, even mirrors retracted. You didn't by any chance first overdose everybody by fruit by the foot this time?

They're closed tho. Mad props for doing so much running. I'd prob die mile 1

It was a challenge getting to 50 minutes of ski time today. It takes me 50 minutes to drive one-way to True Blue, and I stuck it out to ensure my total time on the slopes + ski lift was at least equal to my driving time. Today I met my goal and am very proud, since I almost quit after 0.5 runs down Midway. I couldn't possibly quit that early and knew I had to make at least 2 or 3 runs to justify the expense of driving there. Unlike Camelback, where I once quit after 2 runs, there was a great group of folk in the parking lot, and @AtomicSkier even retracted his car mirrors for me. Thanks for offering kudos for venturing beyond the kiddie slopes, and a big shout out to @GrilledSteezeSandwich for checking up on me on the Vista slope.

You rock Salty!! And kudos to GSS for checking up on you on the Vista slope. In conditions like this I'll bow to anybody venturing beyond kiddie slopes. So white and slippery... How did you pull it off? 50 minutes!! That R in PASR makes so much sense now. Rrriiide in, and rrrrriiide out. Well may be Park in between.

Wow just wow even bringing MomSkiz into this

Radical I wonder if Cliffhanger is open.

Wow salty you have long fingernails lol trim those.

Remember to bring some of this!!!!

I said wazup to Eaf at the top of the Main Street chair.

Only nonrefundable hotel rooms.... Sorry Saltman I couldn't help myself. You skied today. I'm on a field trip.

Camelback was blowing snow this morning.

@saltyant according to the interwebz, shawnee is $32 all in if you order online. my problem is i dont know if they will be closing for rain, and i dont want to drive all the way up for no reason.

Went for a quick run after work to beat the darkness. Caught this nice view while crossing the river. One of my favorite views in Bethlum.

Remember to use season pass for discount.

At Slope Side tonight for dinner. 46 in the B when I left and currently 40 at the top. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Imagine being confused constantly.

Well maybe their Nile Mile.

Root isn’t skiing for awhile because he loves his kid.

No, but I do enjoy Shawnee. Especially more than that Camelback circus.

Looking like Europe right now. Flying into Zurich so somewhere within a train ride from there.

Here's an example of where I'll used the confused face, as those aren't even my fingernails, but Toast, @RidgeRacer, and/or MomSkizToo will call me out and ask why I'm always confused.

Yikes! Now I’m confused. 😳
