I used to but you still have to break in then when you do that unless you hide it somewhere in the bed or undercarriage.

Man how do people get out of their front door with 7+ feet of snow.

Was the first time I lost then on the hill thank god it was local. I chose a bad pocket, guess I was asking for it. Side zip pocket when I have huge velcro bucket pockets doh! Fortunately I still have 2 more spares and a key machine on the job.

Left the house around 7:05 stopped at the gas station for a small cappuccino and honey bun to start the day Arrived in the Sunbowl lot at 7:40 and walked over to the lift to find out they weren't loading yet. I stood around and bullshitted with the lifties for a few min but they still weren't getting the call to load, so I skated over the the Stevenson which had ski patrol lined up ready to do their sweep and allow the passholders up afterwards. That's what I get for being lazy, not wanting to park in the main lot and walk up the hill and stairs to the Sullivan. I missed out on 20 min of first tracks. I was on the 2nd Civilian chair of the day on the Stevenson, could have been first but choose to take my own chair for comfort. The guns were blazing on The Bactrain, Pharaoh and some of the connecting trails in between. First run was down the Nile Mile which was pleasantly groomed packed man made pow. Next run was down Cliffhanger which was also very nicely groomed packed pow. I lapped the Stevenson a couple more times and hit some of the mid mountain trails that lead out near the Sunbowl and back down to the Stevenson and found a small nice wind blow pow stash about toe deep on the side of Lower Cleo. Headed over to the Sully and hit up Marjies which must have been conditioned with some nice man goodness. Continued the rest of the day doing a few runs on the Sully to the Stevenson and back. I went to take a break and get my park pass around 10 and did a lap through the park which looked legit mostly jibs with one jump on lower moores. I only dabbled on a couple flat boxes. The stoke stomper of the day was when I walked back to my car after checking out the park I realized the zipper came open on my jacket and my keys were gone I decided to go over to the Stevenson and ask if anyone turned them in and than ride over the the Sullivan and ask them but no luck. I called my pops to see if he could bring me a spare which he did so I took a few more runs and left at 11:45. To my suprise there was never more than a minute wait in any of the lift lines the whole time I was there so I didn't mind missing out on 20 min of first tracks this morning. Props to the snowmakers and groomers for doing an amazing job!

I think I'm the only PASR pass holder at the Camel. I used to get out every day when I was unemployed but now usually just weekend mornings. I dunno if you know who I am because I don't think you were working when I worked there but you might. Yet your home mountain is listed as Camelback? . Welcome to PASR!

To high to see pictures I guess
-
Nope just get holiday pay but no class so maybe for the weekend possibly. What days you thinking?
-
Wow looks like they have the glades filled in nicely already. JFBB never fails to impress, definitely the best man made conditions in PA.
-
I am jealous. Last weekend at Boulder Phillycore was telling me all sorts of stories about his Tahoe experiences. I'd love to get out there next season Have fun, take lots of pics !!
-
I do, I skipped today since the next 3 classes are just practice exams before the final. I don't need 3 practice exams so long as I study a little each day on the bus. The the 2nd half starts again after the New Year. It will be sad to not have my Saturday morning first tracks This season is a sacrifice for me, following seasons I will have vacation time + other days to take off and plenty of funding to spend that vacation time at mountains outside of the Poconos
-
It's a full hour on both sides of the hill Public opening isn't until 8:30
-
7:30-8:30 Sat & Sun for Superpass holders only. The publix has to sit in the snow and watch the select few lap the Sully and or soon Stevenson when it opens.

I have to say the first tracks pass perk is the best thing since cold meat between sliced bread for the working man, I hate crowds! Even though Camelback lacks the vert and glades of some surrounding mountains this perk will keep me a pass holder so long as I'm employed M-F. I woke up a little late this morning because of another late night at the casino, pulled into the Sunbowl lot at 8:00 jumped on the lift and walked over to the Sully for 30 min of quiet time on the hill. First run was down Big Pocono which was nice hard pack groomers with a couple little dips that could potentially take you down if not looking closely. Next I hit Rocket which was fairly nicely groomed but also had a few tricky groomer dips. I then hit up Marc, Cleo & Caesar a couple times mixing in Marjies which was definitely ROTD very well groomed and some fun woopdy doos at the bottom. I disregarded birches because I just didn't feel like skating over there and that was the only trail open on the side, it will give me something to check out tomorrow anyways if they don't close due to the rain. I was fiddling with the Phresheeze on the lift for the first 5 or 6 runs and finally got it working, awesome app!! The crowds really weren't that bad but they started coming in around 9:30. I was satisfied with my day already with the lack of terrain and only Sullivan to lap off of so I headed out at 9:40, came home and made a turkey sausage, steeze and egg on rye and took a nap. JADIP

Same here with the app crashing, I just joined on the website using my PC and logged in on the phone and it appears to be running smoothly. There must just be a bug with the sign up portion of the app.

Just downloaded this app for iPhone. Looks sick, thanks for sharing!

So true, they basically made a donation to Boulder when they didn't have to. Opening with more terrain next weekend isn't going to draw people from their home mountains that will be open with whatever terrain now.
