Hey All, I’m back from another fun session at Blue mountain the true mountain. On the drive up the temperature ping ponged between 31 and 43 degrees and it was the warmer end of the sprectrum at Blue mountain the true mountain. Fueled by a sausage biscuit, hash brown and two sips of apple juice I arrived at the base around 718am. In the house were Atomic Jeff, Toast, JFDan, BenM, MBike Mike, Nastar Glenn, Indiggio, Ryan, Mute, NMSki, Gary, Matt Edge, Gary, Mixiplix, Bethlehem Ford Guy, Slim, Rick, West Chester Homeys, Penn State guys and many more. First run was challenge which was alright pretry fast and smooth enough, Nightmare to dreamweaver continues to be a hidden gem or nemesis depending on how you ski it and if it’s empty or not..half width makes it Spicy AF. Lazy mile was ok early..Main Street had three D snow as did challenge later. Paradise was good when I skied it once pretty wide..last corner has some bite to it... Skied 10-11 runs and then hungout in the lot and had some more of JFDans famous Xmas cookies and beer and enjoyed the 40 something degree weather although if it could get cold soon that would be alright. Looks like tomorrow’s rain holds off at least during the morning and with the help of Blues grooming fleet should be titty sparkles by around 8am tomorrow JADIP

Haven’t been to Abasin since Christmas Eve. Pass blacked out for holidays, plus I want to save my last 3 days there for late season. Things gettin freshened up now, new storm rolling through.

Wow! Once the temps came up and the sun hit the slopes, the snow turned hero and it was bumpapalooza across the entire mountain! Slowly the groomer-made disaster bumps turned skiable, but another set formed just outside them which were far more fun to ski. Not being satisfied with the groomer-made crap bumps, we set a single exhausting line from Chute down to almost The Lazy intersection on Main Street, skiers right. By 1:00 pm all of lower MS was bumped up and claiming many a victim. On one run down to the 6-pack, there was a HUGE commotion at the MS/LM intersection, with line 10 SP and a few other BM people all attending to someone lying on the snow. Must have been a pretty spectacular collision, I presume. Rode up the 6 to find both Challenge & Razors headwalls all bumped up. Took a rundown Challenge which was a hoot of spring skiing fun! Legs are totally shot. Definitely the most fun conditions of the season so far!

not nearly as crowded as projected.

you cant see it, but i have my surprised face on. And i'm kidding when i say that. Big Boulder has 1/2 of the trails open as of today. That is probably indicative of Vails commitment to the 5 PA resorts.

Frost has been OK. The quad still isn’t running, so that’s been an inconvenience. However it’s keeping challenge empty with good conditions all day. From what I can see $0 in improvements have been made this season. I’ve been riding in the morning and drinking in the afternoon, so it’s all good.

When I saw all the meat last week for sausage Sunday oh I could say was this is great!! wait I typed I fucked salty last night WTF

Maybe @saltyant will be back at Blue soon!

Ski you at Blue next year.

Do the people that bring sleds to Blue just think they are going to be welcomed with open arms and escorted to an area for them to use it?

Today was aight. Always good to ski with you folks.

That sounds fantastic!!!

@Barb how has Abasin been. @poconoceancity how has JFBB and hunter been? @moe ghoul how has Smugss been??

After the fact and I hope you had fun yesterday wherever you landed. All previous advice above good but these folks are pennsy-centric and don’t know shit about Mt peter which is the hill that fits your situation/location to a T. NYC to wRwick is a no-brainer It’s a throwback to the Vt family skiing centers. Small vert, small area but Uber family friendly and convenient. The “lodge” is centrally located so kids can wander and no problem meeting back up. Prices will be much better than anything in pennsy or Catskills also. After several visits, if your family is still into skiing, THEN go to a bigger resort.

Suddenly not feeling well tonight so tomorrow will be up in the air until the alarm goes off. Sunday same, and weather dependent. Due to that, (and also main fridge does last night) not planning to grill this weekend.

Hunter had the Epic conditions on Lower K27 last weekend, as noted above. More natural snow in Catskills than in New England (or PA, of course) this year.

It is no coincidence I include so many great singers. I am glad you agree they add nicely. I aim to let them shine not to spotlight myself.

Damn

I have no idea but it’s hilarious...not as cool as saucer boy.

@saltyant are you skiing tomorrow? I have some jelly candies and BenM has a cream pie for you.

I freestyle rapped today for free.
