Hey All, I’m back from a fun session at Blue mountain the true mountain. In the house were JFDan, Atomic Jeff, Mute, Boo Bear, Ryan, Schif, Falco, Eddie, PSUFlyGuy, Charles, Salty, Mixilplix, Mrs Snowbunski, Kurt, Toast, Justo, Rose, TheRealKT, Antman, Enjorales, Pops, Indiggio, Nastar Glenn, Ski2Live and many more. Second civilian chair today in the six pack VVIP line. I would consider the snow to be variable spring conditions with groomed hardpack, corn snow and frozen crud dominating..I did an almost tour de Bleu today hitting Paradise, Lazy, Main Street, Switchback and even widowmaker from the top and just lower to midway to little gap to Burma woo what a run. The parking lot was fun had some chip, fruit snacks, pizza and beer. Temperatures were in the 40s rising to the 60s under sunny sky’s. JADIP ski everybody at blue in 8-9 months.

Just got back from the mountain, departed about 6:30pm. Spectacular end of season day and conditions. @mbike-skidefinitely wins the Poach of the Season award!! Rode up with him and Nastar Glen late in the afternoon and to start it off, we got the red char, so we knew something was up. Rolling over Sidewinder, mbike yells out that's going to be his final run of the season. We get to the top and a couple of SP are futzing with the rope. As we loop back around, Micah is talking to the SP, probably trying to talk them into letting him run Sidewinder. Then outta the blue, mbike ducks the ribbon right above the SP!! Slim yells out for mbike to get some and SP yells at mbike to stop! I just couldn't stop laughing at the entire episode. It was GRATE! Many laughs were had in the parking lot afterwards. Also had some chuckles w/ @AtomicSkier and @toast21602 getting reprimanded in the lift line by some decrepit SP for poaching Sidewinder, when they didn't even do it. Then some snowmaker reprimanding the same SP for who knows what. Yet more laughs! Snow and bumps were hero everywhere you went today. Just another day in paradise!

Heard Sidewinder was ROTD but didn’t get a chance to check it out.

Hard to find a better vaccinated group (with the exception of @saltyant) ... hard to find a PASR in the parking lot who hasn't received at least their first dose.

Great way to end the season at Blue... and what a great season it was.

Great day. Triple dip session, hit 8 runs in the morning session, out for drinks and piz courtesy of @PSUFlyand then Pops and I went back for 3 more runs before relaxing in a set of the adirondacks having a drink for about 20 waiting for the boy to finish with his camp. Turns out with the schedule shuffle he ended up being the only one in the group, and got down Main Street today so he was stoked about that. We went out for 2 more runs with him and he chose Switchback and Paradise, so ended out Blue, and probably entire season.

Great day to end the season. Limited terrain but great snow. Soft and could edge early, got real soft but held up. Mostly boarders and park rats. Incredible tricks and flips by the boarders in the park. Great vibe all in all. Music on the patio and sunshine. JADIP

I apologize in advance for formatting and grammar issues as I cannot get the website to upload photos, so I’m using the app on my phone instead. By looking at the weather forecast, it was pretty clear that the season is coming to a quick end in our area. My indy pass didn't get much use, and I really wanted to check out another mountain I normally wouldn't go to. The original plan was to go on Thursday to magic mountain in Vermont instead, but they moved to weekends only and I'm glad I didn't wait. Berkshire east looked cool, and there's dispensaries nearby, so why not. I left at 430 and made the 4 hour and 30 min drive with ease. no traffic, nothing. The weather got warm and it ended up being a great day. I had never been to the Berkshires before and the area is really cool. Small mountains, but has a way different vibe than the Poconos. After driving along a crystal clear river, I saw some ski trails. The mountain reminds me of plattekill in the sense that there isn't really any runout. There are 4-5 fall line trails that cut straight down the mountain with good pitch. There are a ton of glades and smaller trails that are obscured by the trees. This place is classic New England. there is really only one trail I would consider wide. the lodge and outdoor area was pretty cool. They had one lift running which was their carpet loading quad. Since the mountain is pretty steep, lift rides were never long. I started with the runs of to the left and right side of the hill. There are two really long trails that meander around the back of the mountain and around. Really fun long cruisers. The conditions were soft spring snow, or pure ice. The ice was easy to just ride around. The fall line trails down the front rode like plattekills as well. Just straight down, and not too wide. After reflecting on my day, I realized my favorite days on snow are at ski areas like this. I definitely have a type. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

$25 all in

I'll get some pizzas from the pizza truck to share if its open today if you're not cooking

You’re right, but there is so many other factors involved. Good thing I’m not a lawyer doing cost analysis.

Couldn’t ask for a better end of the blue season day! Great snow , suds and buds! Bump runs and Red chair and blowing by skiPo was the cout de tat, whatever that means! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@mbike-ski has ended his season in the most baller way possible. Really milked that last day for all it’s worth.

I thought you could, but can’t get the $50 renew discount

Thanks Toast for the ticket. Nice to say hi to all of you briefly, though I remain most comfortable in masked gatherings. Nice conditions today for what the weather has been - and much better than Hunter today from all reports. Got in 12 runs, with my fav (the one I did 2x) being Widowmaker > Chute > Main St. Good to be back at Blue after 2 years. Hope I get some decent conditions in New England Thurs-Sun. Sounds like there could be snow Thurs.

Grate end of the season at Blue...razors kinda sucked but good overall conditions. Thanks @mbike-ski for the pork sandwiches and @mute1080 for the beer. Hopefully see some of you guys in the off season. I have a few extra kayaks so always up for that...or beers, and probably join a bike ride at some point

In.

That is a fantastic picture

This photo would make an awesome canvas in a man cave

Saw these two beautifully colored intermodal hauls coming through Bethlehem on my run today. Got a little extra pep in my step from these gems.

I guess i will renew my pass on Sunday, just to ensure it works for tomorrow, and then deal with it opening day not working.

I’m surprised you haven’t seen the light and the light is Blue.

Will it end this discussion?

Caught an injured hawk today. Thinking it got blown into something during the recent wind event. Came back with my trout net and cat carrier and caught it. Bought it to the Raptor Trust. They ID’ed it as a sharpshinned hawk. Relatively rare in our area. They gave me contact info and said to check back in 48 hrs to see how it’s doing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anybody got a buddy pass?

$82 for Saturday the third and they don’t have the Sullivan high speed running. Assholes

Challenge was horrendous. Worst run I've done this year for sure. Did they even groom it bro??? Main Street was ok. Pizza was grate. Ski you all next year.

Looks like Camelback is staying open til Easter. I saw $55 for Thursday and was like
