they got Dan's message. it's working again

Fuckin dead tonight. Best beginner conditions one could ask for. Got 6 runs down the bunny hill. Great success.

Elk would be way more attractive if my first thought wasn't sitting on a slow fixed grip for twenty minutes a run.

i guess saturday and sunday.

cbk offering their monroe county pass again. i wish blue would do that

honestly its not a bad deal for $200 more, especially if you're local to the area and can do all of the summer stuff.

best part of manhattan was getting in the car to get the hell out of there.

lol if only.

saw that too. also thought wording was vague. indoor waterpark access is a big add-on. i just went looking for it, but it's gone. a year or two ago they were selling full / partial season passes (3mo at a time). they were $$$$$$$$. struggling to find the rate somewhere. archive org isn't really cooperating, but here was that landing page

can you just give me a quick run down. i dont have an hour and a half to listen to this. and he prob does

just realized that last year the SP price was 675, so only a $24 jump. pretty good. also noticed that, in addition to the 20% off glamping thing (which is nice), they're also giving 2 tix to different summer activities which I'll almost certainly take advantage of.

The gram says 699 next year for pass. Unlikely there is a gift card/dollars

Bingo

Really good today, these days are rare at Blue. Thanks enjo for the sneks. I so badly wish one of you fuckers would have seen me eat it on chute.

Looks like consensus, aside from NWS, is that it's shifting north a bit. Maybe blue will get a good thump.

sat and sun. found the cone btw.

I'm bringing a chainsaw just in case and will be doing so for all future snow days.

rough morning. went out at 7 to start the driveway but the tractor wouldn't start - even though i had it on a battery tender all night. got it jumped, but couldn't make it through the snow. took about 20 min to get the snowblower going, snow was jamming up in the auger though so it wasn't doing much. was running out of time so said fuck the driveway. walked over to the truck and noticed that i had left my passenger window all the way down all night. boots and gloves covered in snow. whatever, dust it all off and get ready to go. couldn't start the truck, 10 min later i was able to jump it. 5 min from blue but blocked by a tree. try to go an alternate route that prob would've added 20 min. blocked by another tree. i chalked it up as a loss and white knuckled it the whole way home. roads are pretty bad. i don't think anything off a state road had been plowed in 3-4 hours. back at work. highlight of my day was seeing two guys on a snowmobile with skis and a snowboard prob headed to blue which was pretty cool. they might have been able to get around the tree, i dunno tho. maybe that and i was able to get up my driveway without getting stuck. everything did not go as expected.

Alternate route Bailing. Have fun y'all

looking like about 8-10 here as well. haven't been outside yet. saying there's still more to come. weird the storm panned out, i put the blade on the riding mower so i expected i had jinxed things. managed to snag the morning off so i'm plowing until 8am then making my way to blue... slowly i'd imagine.

yeah i wasn't sure if you were the post owner or them.

lol ok i went to like it and got this

i wonder if they'll use the chair corral / storage / garage tonight. even tho i really think it's just there for show. @JFskiDan did you delete your facebook comment or did they do it for you?

yup went up across all models and forecasters. natl weather svc cant make up their mind with this. it was like 8" then 4" then 8" now 10" for us very happy about the shift south, was worried about an ice then snow event here. 4am this morning vs 4pm yesterday
