  1. The Camelback bathrooms are free, so they got that going for them which is nice
  2. If Blue Mountain is closed tomorrow do you want to go to Camelback? I might be able to hook you up with a 1% discount off parking and maybe we can split a stale cookie.
  3. Good one! Yes, I can ski the Cliffhanger so that means I'm a Xpert.
  4. This is getting good
  5. Pocono Raceway was rad this season. There were some NASCAR races and maybe some other events. It's called the Tricky Triangle for a reason. It is one of the premier tourist destination in the Poke In Hoes
  6. Correct. Plus @theprogram4 confirmed it on Camelback's website. I valiantly salute him for all his hard work and investigative journalism.
  7. Prob correct. Maybe the lift will work if they hired a Lift Maintenance Mechanic. I wonder if anyone applied since 12/26?? Maybe @VTmark_take2 is interested??
  8. I am hearing unconfirmed rumors that movement may have been spotted at the Glen Chair. I repeat, the Glen Chair may be on the move. This is very exciting times for Camelback!
  9. Sure is. Next time at Camelback I'm going to dress up as the Blue Mountain mascot and hand out paper map directions to Blue Mountain the True Mountain while standing next to the camel. I bet Blue Mountain will then earn enough money to finally move the terrain park from Barb's Way to anywhere else. That would be sickbird
  10. I asked for a free season pass for next season, 2025-2026 or I won't go back to Camelback ever again!
  11. Maybe they've given up on skiing and will just focus on tubin' and their fancy water park lodges.
  12. @GrilledSteezeSandwich This is getting good. People are coming from Camelback to Blue Mountain because they've seen the light. Camelback is basically closed today (except for 2 gaper lifts) while True Blue is running near or at 100%. That's my boy Blue. I'm stuck on Blue. Today we are all Blue Mountain skiers and riders.
  13. For all PASRs who will be heading to Camelback today, know this: The Black Bear Six lift will be closed on this glorious day. Also, the Stevenson Lift will also be closed. However, you may ride the Sunbowl and the Meadows lifts which are pretty rad and can access some groovy green circle trails. That is all. Over and out. s
  14. Today I skied in Vermont without the drive and with brahs. In the house were some brahs. Left my house at 0900 and drove up while drinking some hot coffee. Met up with my brah, who met up with some of his brahs, who discussed their brahcation. Then some brah hooked me up with a free WVIA ski lift ticket to ski Vermont. That was sick. Skied some runs like a boss. Afterwords drove home and drank some ice cold coffee. JADIP WTGAI
  15. I loved riding Old Bailey on busy days instead of sitting butt to nut on Sullivan Lift. Usually no one was on it unless it was really really busy. I've rarely seen many of the other fixed grips run in my time other than the Glenn Chair and I think Pocono Raceway once
  16. That would be a treat! We could all tailgate in the paved lots of Camelback and not get mud all over our ski boots while consuming copious amounts of Yoo-Hoos.
  17. This is getting good. People who drove to Camelback today to ski got to experience a Wally World moment. They should spend some snow making money on a camel out front that says, "sorry folks, mountain's closed".
  18. @GrilledSteezeSandwich This is grate. We should recruit some Camelback fans on the face books to come to PASR to write radical Camelback trip reports
  19. Everyone should send a fax to President Trump and tell him that together, we will Make Camelback Great Again!
  20. Thanks. You're welcome and anytime. This report will go down in the top 500 Camelback trip reports of 2025, maybe even the top 499.
  21. Thanks for your five stars rating and support to counter all these haters. Yes yes, we shall enlist Rajeev as well to post reviews on the googles and also the face books
  22. Can you rate this thread 5 stars? I can't believe the rating is down to an abysmal 2 stars for such a stellar Trip Report. What a bunch of jealous haters.
  23. Today was a legendary day at Camelback, the greatest ski resort in northeastern Pennsylvania, maybe even the best in eastern Pennsylvania. I am still recovering from the amazing awesomeness experienced at this local hill station. In da house were myself and many other radical fans of the famous camel mascot. I arrived at 800 sharp under cloudy skys and immediately met a boomer in guest services who was passionately expressing his distaste over Camelback staff due to confusion over his ski locker debacle situation. Due to many complications involving a ski locker, he said, and I quote, "I am never skiing Camelback again". I could not believe these words as Camelback is totally radical. After receiving my "Peak-2-Peak Pass" (TM) which is basically my Blue Mountain pass blessed with Camelback access, I drove my Subaru to the gaper land parking lot where they were blowing lots and lots of perder. I witnessed some dude with RTMs, and they appeared to be 170 length. That was sick. Next I booted up and sipped some coffee and craved some Yoo Hoo. Then I walked to the gaper lift which was running again after a brief shut down. it must have been tired from it being early on Sunday morning. Exhilarated to ride this lift, I walked past the frozen ice pond which was formerly 8 inches of standing cold water according to some super fan of Camelback on the face books. I was distraught that I didn't get to wade through 8 inches of water and then get to experience drying my socks off at the blow dryer in the restaurant while high fiving a real life camel. Next I rode the gaper lift and had the time of my life. There was some perder blowing but it was only slightly in my face, unlike Blue Mountain the True Mountain where they actively blow cold Perder at your face on 66.6666% of high speed lifts. That was rad. Thankfully I wore my Face Mask (tm) so the Perder only stung a little. Next I skied down a massive slope, like 10 feet of actual vertical drop, to transfer to the Big Black Bear Six high speed lift. It was a glorious ride to the top of the mountain, probably up to 1700 feet or maybe even 1700.1 feet of elevation gain. I peered into the vast horizon to the north where I would be able to gaze upon the majestic Catskills of New York state, but sadly the snow cloud from all the Perder being blown on Nile Mile for two or maybe now three weeks had accumulated into a massive snow cloud that obstructed my view. Nonetheless, the first ride down the Camelback mountain was radical. I skied past the grassy slopes of Marjorie's Delight, The Rocket, Big Pocono, and Uncle Bill's Way, and noted the greenness of the grass which gave me the urge to frolic in those meadowlands, with nary a snow gun in sight. Skiing on grass is totally radical. I skied down Upper Cleopatra and into Honeymoon and that was a life changing experience. I was high from the exhilaration ski experience down the slope and craved to split a hot cocoa and maybe a quarter piece of sugar cookie with Ski2Live, but he was nowhere to be seen as he was probably still mentally recovering from that amazing day when I lapped Honeymoon 49 times and recorded the experience with my GoPro camera, and then high fived a Camel and split a hot cocoa with Ski2Live. That was rad. The runs down King Tuts, ASP, and Humpty Dumpty were out of this world. So much fun, so much pitch and so much Perder. Lots and lots of snow coverage to guide my ski edges down as they were pulled by the intense force of gravity while riding the snow flake molecules which covered the luscious leas of the steep, steep pitched mountainside. Tears of joy flowed from my eyes as I sped probably around 170 km per hours according to my official Jitterbug speed reader calculation device, and whizzed past the knolls of the barren slopes nearby. The flat run out after the steep slopes gave my body a well deserved rest after skiing with intensity down the expert Black Diamond slope of Asp and the Super Expert Double Black Diamond The Hump ski hill slope, which should probably be a Quadruple Black Diamond. Fellow passionate Camelback fans hooted and hollered and cheered at the current status of the mountain, with a mind blowing 15 trails open I think I counted. Afterwards I made my way to the parking lot to recover and drank some cold coffee and a stale sugar cookie that a smuggled in past security. JADIP WTGAI CamelbackRulez.
  24. That's a grate idea. Maybe they should ship some snow guns to Camelback as well. Atomic and I can help airlift the snow guns for emergency snowmaking operations on Marjorie's Delight. Also we can all pitch in and transport some water to Camelback's snowmaking retention ponds which may have been depleted due to excessive water park operations. That would be totally rad.
