Hey! What a great day! It felt like the first day back to school. Hearing about everyone’s summer adventures and milestones. In the AM, the crowd gathered by the quad. This was likely taken around 8:45am. The line wasn’t much longer than what’s shown in this pic. you can see Jeff + rando / 2nd and 3rd chair of more PASRs I was so impressed by how many runs were opened from top to bottom. But while riding up, it’s as expected. Quite bare. I loved Paradise. Later in the morning - Where coming soon & paradise meet - I ran into a gaggle of more PASRs and here are some of them skiing down. You can see Jeff, Mixil and others below. by the end of the day, the clouds opened up and parking lot cracked the inaugural beers of the skison

Hey All, I’m back from opening day 2022-23 at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the lower lot at around 810am and Dirtwolf was already in the house. Also in attendance were Atomic Jeff, JFDan, C1, Schifdawg, PARidgeNancy, Enjorales, Pops, Boo Bear, MBike Mike, Mrs. snowbunski, Nastar Glenn, Indiggio, Mixilplix, Tarpenhead, Slim, Faldo, Charles and many others. i had lift scanning issues and ended up on the fourth quad and into the fog for first run of the season on Coming soon…coverage was outstanding and the snow was decent..firm and soft no cookies. Paradise was even better snow and very nice to be able to open it up a little opening day. Burma had good coverage and was fun as well. I got my pass sorted out let’s hope it works tomorrow. Like many opening days, there was a nice beer drinking contingent in the lot and even chips and it got progressively warmer with the temperature rising through the 40s and into the 50s. There was never any real crowd today probably due to the earlier showers. Tomorrow looks like much nice weather and everything should groom out well Again hats off to the snowmakers on an impressive opening day. I even rode the vista chair once to checkout the top station of the new super summit safari six pack. JADIP

Just a super opening day..in the Valley!...Great seeing everyone..Snow conditions were really good..No cookies....Rain was not an issue..but the fog was at the top....Just felt good to be back on the snow again!!!

Best opening day ever and it's not even close. It's November...day 1, and there's a ridiculous amount of terrain open with three long runs from the top open (including coming soon), 2 high speed lifts running, not at all crowded with 0 lift lines to speak of, great conditions (no cookies) and we parked in the valley...again on day freaking 1. I had to pinch myself to make sure it was real. Great day! Major props to blue and great seeing everyone today!

I was there undercover taking pictures and it looks like some dude on a snowboard made first chair with Atomic Skier Jeff. I thought it was @Schifso I tagged him but it apparently wasn't and apparently you can't delete when you tag someone even when editing a post.

Someone must have been reading this because it is now pointed at the snow.

Wao, there should have been a live feed for this. I hope you guys @AtomicSkier won a swag bag or something.

I see that now. See you soon!

@Schifand I will be there for opening day. then likely Saturday or Sunday with Wally, depending on weather and when we leave NEPA to go back to Philly 🤷🏼‍♀️

Atomic, Dirtwolf, Dan and a snowboarder that I didn't know I think made chair 1? Not sure. I had pass issues like Doug and ended up getting chair 4 or 5 with him.

Agreed. Main St cam could be more useful if they pointed it at the snow.

What a relaxing morning watching the webcam. Blue Mountain Resorts staff need to aim a webcam at the 4 pack Quad so that I can see my friend @GrilledSteezeSandwich while sipping hot cocoa and doing the morning crossword puzzle.

I'm even thankful for you trimming your toenails if it means ski season starts tomorrow!

Today I'm thankful that I'll be skiing in less than 24 hours (among many other things of course)

Saturday and Sunday. @Boo Bearshould be there Friday

@saltyant fantastic news.

Ngmi this morning. Have fun, lookin forward to the report.

Are you really going to ski tomorrow? It's supposed to rain. I'm afraid that I would get wet so I'll be watching on the webcams
