If Blue closes before the 17th, my girls may get a trip to Elk in that weekend

Elk posted they made snow on 5 trails last night. Goin for their 100 day guarantee! How long do they have to make it?

Not sure what that chart means. Did they ever stay open past Easter?

It's better than conditions were this time last year. Think positive. Have they never made it past an early Easter?

I think we should get so much snow that it happens on April 8

I hear JF is closed til the weekend. Won't be surprised if others follow suit

Nah bagged it. Hard to set out in rain, knowing it is raining at your destination and counting on it stopping. Much easier getting it in pre rain yesterday.

Down to 30% chance by 1 at CB

Glad I didn't sell my extra CB ticket with Blue wussing out on a weekend.

Had fun. Got two lift tix for others with my PS&R card, getting them in for $50 and effectively knocking the price of my pass down to $349

Faster drive getting here for opening. Only 90 min. What time does upper lodge guest services open?

Terrible to hear about the lack of snowmaking (formerly a real strength of Hunter's) and the back up lift being out. Was the East side mid point to summit lift closed too? I would have thought that would have been a viable option to access the main front trails off the top.

Darlene went and checked with someone else and gave me that answer, which is the same answer someone else gave me on the 21st.

They don't ski enough to be worth even 399 with the other deals I can get

Darlene at Blue again confirmed it is on, but only for current 5th grade snowpass holders and only when you get an email from skipa. It makes good sense this way as it attracts deal minded people who have been skiing a variety of places for 2 years to make Blue their home Mt.

Then they should not give out false information

That would bite. They confirmed to me a couple days ago they were doing it again this year. Otherwise I would not have gotten the pass. I will be pissed if they bait and switch me.

What happened at Hunter?

Blue having $60 passes for my 2 6th graders to be was an offer I couldn't refuse. May do CB another year, depending on how much the VIP line entrance makes Blue bearable when I ski. But don't worry I'm not not going to join the "Blue rules CB drools" mafia.

The tix to CB, JF and 1 of the Blue ones are all on one card so they have to go together. If I could give you just the JFBB one, I would. May be possible late season if I don't sell the cards whole and I or my friends wind up using some of them. I could give away a card with just Big Bear on it if anyone wants that. But if you have a pass to Blue I can't imagine you would want to drive all the way to Big Bear to ski less vertical and easier terrain serviced by slower lifts, even for free.

Having just got a season pass to Blue I have some discount lift ticket vouchers I prepurchased available for sale. I have 2 tix to Blue and 1 each to Camelback and Jack Frost. $90 gets all 4 $70 gets 1 each to Blue, JFBB and CB. $25 for just 1 Blue I will throw in 1-3 tix (depending on which you buy) to Big Bear that I deem to be of lesser value PM me if interested

Don't care at all if ski areas get bought or sold except to the extent it leads to a multi mountain pass or increases prices due to less competition and/or price fixing.

You think they sold 2500? Any idea how many pass holders they have now?

Sat AM looks promising

Might do it another year. Gonna be skiing Blue a lot in 18/19 as I just jumped on their pass deal. And if we go West there are 6th grade passes for kids in CO and UT.
