5 slopes and trails... 8:30 - 4:30

Fake news

Yeah conditions sucked early on, but after the sun came over the @RidgeRacer, the snow got much better. Still a ton of fun dodging people on Midway, playing in the Pocono powder and watching the mayhem ensue. JADIP!

Today was a significant improvement from yesterday ... AKA, you could actually ski.

This is why people give you a smartass response back...then you get sad or confused

I wasnt in love with conditions yesterday, but just like you said, add in people that shouldnt be on midway in the best of conditions, and its a recipe for badness. Being able to get down Midway in these conditions makes you a better skier. Sure, it would be easy to just go to Frost and ski the 4 flattest trails, but where is the fun in that?

I had no issue with the snow quality yesterday, shugah bumps were fun. it's just the outta control yahoos that had me a little weary

Out of the box and into the rocks!

Like all buoys, they are 100% accurate. The error usually comes from the observer. I'll admit that JFDan is quite a bit more accurate with his evaluation of the buoy. I typically get over excited when I see movement and immediately claim a potential storm. That being said, this is an image of the buoy from yesterday... pretty calm. Not much will be popping in the next week or so.

Tonight is so bad I can't be mad though. I mean seriously how can I be mad when nothing else is even open.

I don’t think they let antivaxx people in

Hey All, I’m done with another session at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the upper lot at 835am and it was much quieter than Thursday and Friday AM..less Booms out but the hardcore like Rodney, Bethlehem ford guy and Atomic Jeff were in the house. The snow was smooth and fast..no cookies and yes they blew snow all over overnight. It was so quiet and peaceful and every run was pleasant. I forgot what it was like not dogging people every run. Temperatures were in the upper 30s and the sun was shining. Peaced out at 1015 and now getting some CFA.

and then complain and ask for a gift card?

You're welcome and any time! Next time I ski at Blue Mountain the True Mountain I'll be sure to jot down this suggestion on half a piece of a Post-It note and insert it into their Idea Box.

WJW, maybe Blue should hire the Jack Frost snowmaking team as consultants.

Salty at least this time at Stowe you’ll know that you have to take your skis off before entering the gondola lol

I ski enough challenging trails on ski trips when it's actually enjoyable. That's when I improve. Plus I don't care if I improve or not, it's not a competition and there's no grand prize for being the best skier on the mountain.

No problem. I'm a lover not a hater.

Yeah go ski it.

Accuracy would drastically improve if there wasnt so much crap floating around creating excessive bursts of enzymes, and shit getting stuck to it. The last data i went through, there was something going on around Christmas. We will see how it plays out.

I can't see everywhere that they are making snow on the webcam, but I took the dog out and those non fan guns are LOUD so it seems like it is way more than just Upper Main. Hopefully Burma and Lazy in the mix.

As someone whos work revolves around the weather everyday, he is "ok". He has blown a forecast more than once. Most people will only remember a forecast for some type of storm, but like i said, weather is our life at work. Not slamming them, but they fit into every other outlet trying to predict weather, that just isnt a cut and dry math problem.

Love to see it! Unexpected nights of snowmaking are great for stoke.

I'll probably hit JF on a weekday before the end of the year with my buddy @JFskiDan as we're both #Epic.

Maybe the snow quality is better, but the camaraderie just can’t compare to Blue. And opinions are like assholes…

We understand you want to make the most of your Epic pass. Stop talking shit on Blue. If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything.

Yes, Salty is “special”

Hopefully NOT. Isn’t Whiteface owned by the state?

Are they open right now at 746 pm on a Sunday night? No they're not. I'm willing to bet that blue is probably one of maybe two or three other ski areas on the East Coast open right now as we speak. Maybe the only one in the East Coast. Shit i wonder how many ski areas are open right now 7:46 on a Sunday night in the entire country. Can't be many

True. There is nothing that compares to Blue the True in the area.

lololol don't fall for my Salty troll. You're better than that.

I wish I was there rn

I'm talking about the flight, but thanks for wasting your time when you could have just SUJOPO

Monday conditions were nice. Got there about 10 and left 12:30. 40 degrees warming up to 45. Sunny, loose granular, never got at all slushy, no skid marks. DeMattes was in very good shape as was One Park. No lift lines except for a couple of times the lift stopped. A lot of boarders today. The close lot never got full (although the slope side u is blocked off). Not as challenging as Midway and Lower Main Street, but my max speed at Blue last week was 30 mph, and at Frost today was 45, and conditions held up well, so there is that. Hate having to skid to keep my speed down. Knees are holding up well, some electronic problems with the new phone though, lack of an audio port is a pain.

That is a grate idea!!!

Bahahah raw dogging people..face down ass up that’s the way we like to tuck.

I wasnt, fake news. I cant stand dogging people either which is why I'm not going to Blue until they open more trails.

All skis are rock skis.

Dude in blue jeans walking down the slope and a little grom ripping down the shit cover ditch off the side. Gotta love early season Midway mayhem

Let's make this a day of kindness.

Always enjoy @EdBaconvideos.

Yes they are. It'll never happen. Salty thinks he's special because he has the epic pass

I really thought the conditions were not that bad around 1030-1100. Was getting into the bumps/ice. Just couldn’t deal with the crowd.

Ok salty said most of it. And despite his stupid sujopo crap he's spot on. Travel time is travel time. That's how I look at it at least. I've left the white face lot wearing ski pants and been home in time for dinner... Iate dinner but I was there for dinner nonetheless. I've done this math numerous times at least as it pertains to me and where I live. But the only comparable flight out west would be a direct to salt lake from philadelphia. For me however I'm still doing the hour and 45 minutes to the airport then an hour and a half to two hours at the airport killing time then 5 hours in the air then the 45 minute ride to the resort. Other than that to get anywhere out west I'm looking at 13 hours minimum. And honestly that shit gets exhausting sometimes I'd rather do the five and a half drive. You're missing out if you don't try white face. 5 and a 1/2 hours to 3200 vertical feet is tough to beat

You're welcome and any time. That being said I've booked my trip to Breckenridge and am very excite.

Fixed it for you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought it was gonna be worse than it turned out to be.....Come around held up great...Midway didn't ..first few times down it was nice...Then it got chopped up...On Lower main I felt you could really let it go.... for the most part the crowd is what got me to retire to the lot...Yea it was good seeing @Glenn today....Temps weren't bad either...
