  1. Awesome. I would've loved to join you guys. Hadn't been to Blue in a few weeks though and had to be in Easton this afternoon anyway
  2. Now is the perfect time to go. They just opened a few more trails. Another 4" overnight and it snowed off and on all day yesterday. The only closed trails I wanted to hit yesterday were upper extrovert and ditch glades. Probably could've ducked a rope at the end of the day for upper extrovert but I didn't bother.
  3. Today was good...got crowded but no complaints from me. Got in 2 runs on Coming Soon...hit the glades off Lazy (blue baumer I think?) And the the sleepy hollow glades.
  4. For me it's a little under 3 hours. It would be a bit further for Lehigh valley/ pocono people. Also, a full day lift ticket was a whopping $40. If you bring a season pass from another resort its $35, but I did an online ticket reservation so I didn't get that discount
  5. Ok. Vape up and get back at me
  6. I feel like everyone should ski/ride here at least once (on a good snow day). Except maybe Doug. No high speed lifts here I had to stop at a brewery...I really wanted to hit Levity Brewing in Altoona but it would have been a bit out of my way
  7. Haha sorry for the multiple posts...I'm on my phone and its easier that way
  8. Last run of the day on Stembogan... And that brings me to where I currently am...
  9. And more pics...nice soft snow and bumps off a blue trail. .Deer run I think Lower extrovert I think...nice bumps and a good amount of powder at the end
  10. Then time for a nice lunch... After that I hit some glades. Nice drop off of Stembogan toward east wall glades. First time through I wasn't ready for it and launched pretty far into the trees
  11. Lapped Stembogan bowl/trail after that for 5 runs...
  12. Got on the snow around 10, which I think is when they open...access road was sketchy but otherwise the drive was fine. Did a few runs on the top to bottom trail on skiers left. Nice long run, 2 miles. Then time for a lift beer
  13. I'll write a report later...cell service sucks here. That's Stembogan at Blue Knob. Pretty badass trail for PA
  14. I'm shooting for Blue Knob tomorrow...they're still on track for 6-10", hopefully the roads are clear
  15. Nice - I've never dumped on a chairlift before
  16. Accuweather is still showing 6-10..
  17. Nice report - did eaf hack your account?
  18. I should be there Saturday morning. Might take a day off Friday and go somewhere, but I'm thinking Blue Knob if I'm doing that (wrong Blue mountain for this thread, I know)
  19. Montage too, and possibly Blue Knob...
  20. Awesome...in the off-topic section of the magazine, maybe we could have a recipe section (baking bread with Toast) and Automotive Section (car care with Salty - in this issue, topics include "WTF is an O2 sensor")
  21. Appreciate the info. I'm hoping to get back there again this week or over the weekend. I'll definitely check out those lines.
  22. Yeah it was Neversink...I'd like to explore it a bit more if we get some more snow this week. I know there's some steeper stuff there that I didn't get to.
  23. Keep seeing all these backcountry reports you guys are posting and figured I'd better get off my ass and hike some runs... Checked out a spot just outside of Reading (I'm sure @Johnny Law is familiar with this spot). I swapped a set of bindings on my old Capita board and got to the spot around 2 today. First run was down this rocky mess. Through the woods, around those 2 logs at the bottom in the background, and back to the main trail. Hiked along some more and found some more lines that looked interesting. Took pictures of a few...mostly pretty mellow stuff, winding around trees, etc. Still plenty of snow. First attempt at a video with my phone (watch in the higher quality so it doesnt look like garbage). Clipped a rock and went for a tumble... Got up and started just above this spot... I got a knock-off go pro, still waiting on the memory cards to arrive. Maybe I'll get some videos that don't suck if the snow sticks around.
  24. Stopped by French Creek park for a bit this afternoon...did a little hiking in search of some trout (unsuccessful).
