What a grate day today! Camelback rules except for the 4 pack quad. They gotta get that running to be a perfect 5 star resort!

I don't pay $69 to do things I can do myself in little time. Instead of paying the maintenance area to change my A/C filter, I bought the filter for $20 and installed it myself by watching a Youtube video. It took 5 minutes and next time will take 2 minutes and 30 seconds since I know what to do now.

I don't do lockers. My car is my locker.

I would rather walk for miles in ski boots to my parked car than be marooned until random strangers decide I'm allowed to leave.

@GrilledSteezeSandwich I forgot to update my stats until just now and didn't have Blue Mountain ski slope hill stations uploaded to the Stats Page for the calendar date of Monday, January 15th, 2024. I can't believe you forgot to remind me. Fortunately my stats are now up to date so @toastman doesn't have to worry.

I currently see at least 5 separate threads on this. That's smart advertising. Maybe JD Wentworth will make a new thread daily, or maybe stand in the Blue Mountain lower lot with a sign like those mattress places with 51 percent off sales.

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.

Elk (e.g. Vermont) looked grate today. TFTF @AtomicSkier

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.

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! ++++ "❗️AN 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. 😴 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.
