Good info. Thanks for posting that. You have lawn issues dude.

Short hike before we left Crested Butte this morning. As soon as I stepped off the packed down trail to take a picture I sank. Weather supposed to be pretty bad tomorrow. Lots of wind with the snow so not sure what our day looking like. Ice climbing Saturday. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Conditions are like frosted flakes today.... They're grrrrrrrreat! Spring like but not too mashed potatoey. Awesome weather. Feelin' it today.

Ticket rep hooked me up with some free seats for tonight.

Snow bazookas are on at Blue.

Bethlehem/penn state crew is down enjorales cousin but coming in strong otherwise

No you don't.

Title says it all. Really enjoyable spring morning. Coming soon looks like a lush golf course.

Did @Justin forget where he put his season pass?

Fantastic are you rooming with Matt Edge..I think he’s going to Jackson hole on February 30th

Unfortunately the only thing complaining does is appease the other voice in my head...

I can! There have been other years with weather that was just as bad or worse and the grooming was nowhere near as bad as it's been this year.

This is kind of an example of the dumb stuff you should just keep to yourself.

Running a ski business in our climate would put me on pills. Theres gotta be a point where you just say, enough is enough. Maybe its close to that time. I mean, look at the grooming of late. It hasnt been spectacular, and i wonder if it will get better. Does anybody working there actually care about the end product they put out? I will give them props for making snow at the very first opportunity they can, and what they have been able to do in between winter/summer/winter/summer so far this season. Historically the day after some type of snow has been great. We shall see.

Believe me, I’m not complaining!

I don't think it would be THAT bad, but it would probably increase a bit. I wouldn't be opposed if it was bought by a company on any of the multi-pass options. It will eventually happen unless something drastic changes for Barb. But realistically, it can't be fun owning and operating a ski area in PA with the way the weather has been changing over the years.

Bummer but you will still have fun at either of those places... especially with a speed run down regulator Johnson.

Either is a win! Don't feel bad.

I actually don’t want some big corporation buying Blue. Look at JF/BB. Are there any improvements there? And guaranteed, no more tailgating, increased season pass cost. Just not wort it in my opinion.

Backflip in, it’s easier.

Ski instructor?

@saltyant used to work at Eagle rock

It was the Thursday morning crowds I remember today, empty. Snow was good but coverage is really thin in spots, especially upper main. They shut down the 6 pack around 1015 and had everyone good to the quad. Lower park and Central Park were also opened for the season today.

QFT!

The groomers go real fast and don’t make enough passes. The elimination of twice daily grooming in 2007 was also a big loss. That was grate even if you didn’t get fresh cord for night session it kept things smoother.

Look. I love blue but let's be honest. When has their grooming ever been "good". Are there good days? Sure. But overall Blue mountain hasn't necessarily been synonymous with good grooming.

I don’t think they’ve been using the winch cat on the steeps.

The grooming at Blue has been the worst in PA for years. They never let the snowmaking whales drain before pushing them out. That's what creates all of the cookies.

Of course you can.

Sunday is my only chance this weekend. Might come to blue. Gonna be crowded AF though....might go to the catskills if it really snows. Also, will be crowded AF....

Sunday morning should be good if it gets groomed nicely.

Was the other way round for me. I just pointed them on the ice sheet, since I knew I could slow on the flat. I was truly scared on Hoth and could have used a Truly hard seltzer after that adventure.

Big thanks to the illustrious Blue grooming crew. 😑

I got out on the snow around 930 this am. Was I surprised bulletproof cord. Quickly softened up, though, and conditions were very nice. Except for Razors, which I didn’t attempt. Top was full of craters, frozen bumps, and some kind of crevice going down the middle. Weird, because it was ROTD Tuesday. Nice weather for tailgating, as well. I’ll be back Friday.

TAlk to Ms Mute instead of posting to us assholes during dinner [emoji38].

This is great! Next year I plan to do the Couloir run on my RTMs.

Arrived at 4:45 and it was 44° at the top. Surprisingly not as busy in the top lodge as I thought it would be. Was expecting some ski clubs but they must all be at the Valley Lodge. Skiing with Mrs. Mute so it was down Burma first and then lapping lazy and Paradise. Snow is sugar but minimal push piles. Temperatures mild and crowds light. Good times. Grabbing a bite at Slope Side and then heading back out. Already pulled my pass out so I don’t forget that 10% discount.

Shout out to my Line Sick Day wearing bud that I met on the lift and told about PASR. Hopefully he checks us out!

Some dirt and bare spots here and there but it doesn't appear to have deteriorated to much since Sunday. Pleasantly surprised.

Patrol is giving out candy at the top of the six.

Saturday depending on weather Also heading up with the Mrs. tonight and I’ll be there tomorrow morning if anyone is around

now that im old and over the hill, crowds at the mountain make me angrier than they used to. i think its cause the past 2 thursday mornings have left me disappointed with so many people there. but as you said, blue needs all the money they can get so ill just suck it up

There you go complaining about the bumps they made for you again. 😀

This is the big question. I have no plans on Sat that cant be rearranged to make for the best skiing. Maybe a morning session, refreshments, ski, lunch, ski, refreshments, who knows really at this point. Maybe make a trip to home depot and bed bath beyond.....not sure if we would have time. This is where NMSKI's camper thing would come in handy, albeit end up smelling like farts in the end. I'm not sold on any forecast at this point, and based on prior "winter" events this season, the best forecast will be the one made Saturday morning.

They’re both special in their own ways 😍

Six pack is down. Operations were moved to the quad
