I bought my Crosstrek from the same place in Allentown. They delivered it to my trailer near MacAdoodle which was rad. I wouldn't want to go back to a low clearance vehicle or even worse a Chevy ever again.

Jeeze Steeze, now you have an SUV to drive to all the perder
-
I hereby propose a new trail be cut from Lower Main Street straight to the chair. Move Burma trail* and all the beginner area across the street. Then MattEdge could rip all day long and not even have to slow down. * Or build a ski bridge like Killington did at several intersections. Those are rad

That's great. I will not miss the Choke and having to ski through the terrain park with unpredictable people around after skiing the Lazy Mile. Now we'll only have to contend with that nonsense after skiing Widowmaker, Chute, Switchback, Upper Main Street, Middle Main Street, Lower Main Street, Even Lower Main Street, Vista, Come Around Park, Burma Road, Little Gap, and Barney's Bumps for bumpers like @indiggio I completed the survey and gave everything a perfect score except for this issue.

I was just along for the ride and sadly Greek Peak was not near the magenta line.

We flew up to Sydney, NY for some cheap aviation fuel and I got a coffee from the FBO.

That's rad. I hung with Matt Edge in the lower lot today with Schiffdawg for 20 minutes and drank some hot coffee which was grate in the icy cold weather. It was a very low key PASR day in the lot with no one around when I returned to my car at 10:15.

@MattEDGE was getting after it on Main Street. Saw him ripping down several times and getting some mad air. Saw @ridge a few times also. I didnt care for the lone Snow gun on Main St so I preferred Midway which was niiice, especially when the sun hit it. TCS was as hard as a brick.

1/13-1/15 weekend roll call thread.

Go see an expert bootfitter / podiatrist. My right foot was excruciatingly painful for the first several weeks of the season. I am thrilled to be skiing completely pain free the last 2 times out. -
++++ RED ALERT! RED ALERT! ++++ "βοΈAN UPDATE FOR THOSE ON SITE: We are temporarily pausing loading the Challenge Lift due to a fallen tree. Are crews are working on clearing it and we expect the lift to start loading again in ~30 minutes. " +++++ VIBES TO THE FALLEN TREE +++++

@GrilledSteezeSandwich Yoccos talk

Weather.com is showing 40 degree temps and rain showers from 1/25 to 1/28. That'll be really good for the snowmaking retention ponds.
-
It is. I don't know why the guy in yellow looks so cranky though. I hope they have complimentary Hot Cocoa guy tomorrow. Maybe this will entice @Ski2Live Live2Skito ski Blue Mountain resorts tomorrow with us for the bargain price of $161.

I saw that on teh Face Books. I wonder if Blue the True charges the same since it and Camelback are essentially brothers now???
-
I'm thinking MLK day at Blue the True. Compared to tomorrow, Monday = no race team, better perder conditions, maybe sunny skies, no wind, maybe more trails open?? A while back I skied MLK day and it was rad. Lapped Razors all day long and not a BMR in sight.

When this thread started on this grate day I rated it 4 out of 5 stars because Stevenson lift was sleeping for one hour late. π΄ Then I hiked up to Nile Mile which was so dang radical so that earned 1 additional star. Now this thread is average at only 3 stars. What gives?? It should be at least 6 stars for being first civilian down Nile Mile for the season after a strenuous hike in ski boots and carrying skis and polls.
-
Sullivan lift worked grate today unlike last weekend when it was too cold for it from the snow flakes. Wind wasn't a factor. Maybe they forgot how to push the ON button π I think the lifts are named for that time when Ed Sullivan and his son Steven explored Egypt on camelback in 4000 BC
-
I forgot to wind up my official Camelback Nile Mile climbing time keeping machine but I estimate it took 15 minutes and fitty seconds.
-
I guess enough people complained about them taking Coming Soon last weekend that they moved them to Main Street. I love Windowmaker to Chute and typically the race team gets only half of Widowmaker so I can still go down on the left side. I don't complain about that
-
Wao WTGAI. Stevenson Lift looked so young. Now it's old and needs to rest a lot.
-
@DiMe Camelback's race team practiced on the side of the beginner slope today and not on the grate runs like the Asp or Hump. Unlike BMR who get the best run of the mountain almost every weekend.
-
In the empty solitude of the back country of Tannersville PA. What a nice change from crowded ass trails last weekend to having the best slope in PA completely to myself for one run
-
Stevenson lift was running again when I left around 11. Their stupid lifts are sooo annoying this season. I hope they get them working consistently from now on.
