Saw some flashing lights on the chute and main st , Grooming activity? Saturday looks like rain &@#%!

Denial then acceptance 😫 I haven’t looked at my stats all season until I renewed my pass . I’m happy considering the weather. Blue did a great job this year!

Nice pictures all. I messaged Blue on their chat about the possibility of making snow this week but they said that a decision hasn’t been made yet. Anyone hear any news though the grapevine? Tuesday through Friday lows in the 20°’s

My son is pretty good at taking pictures through the telescope lenses. Nice weather I’m disappointed I was tied up the last two days and couldn’t get out skiing.

I was at the top of Razors bumps with Billy when probably 10 kids went around the fence. It was clear that it was closed. Earlier I saw a patroller remove 3 poles from around the sinkhole as I would describe it if it’s the same hole that you were talking about. I can’t blame the patrollers for threatening to pull passes but wondering why they pulled the polls?

I’m not saying resurrect it but there’s a lot of snow on the top part that could be moved over to the top of the quad. It’s getting thin between the quad and six . Razors is in good shape yet, it would be a shame to shut the East side down.

I don’t remember saying that but sounds like a plan , hopefully it’s not too windy when it does get cold next week . They need some love up top , getting a little thin, maybe they can scalp what’s left on coming soon.

The bumpers started another line on the west side below the end of current line. It extends about to the dogleg .

Hopefully they don’t groom anytime soon.

Used to drive by Fernwood resort in the Poconos on my way to Vt in the 80’s . https://www.dcski.com/lostareas/viewlostprofile.php?id=63 @EdBacon’s a wealth of knowledge for the local deceased areas.

I ditched my cousin and Paul early to take some fast runs with you guys. I can pretend I’m 40 for a while. 😁 -

Lol … @GrilledSteezeSandwich did a good job of staying upright. That first run down was no fall zone. In the afternoon it was a 1000% better. Before I ran into the bumpers I hiked up Barneys and ran the tail end of the line. The Bumpers built a line on chute and we hit that a bunch. Razors softened up nicely, last run down challenge was heavy but fun. The line was better after lunch even before the six opening. Stayed till 2 , glad I played hooky today Pretty sweet but the weather is not looking good. -

2016 Carnage on Challenge, had a nice bump line on skiers left and someone cut me off. I bailed through a deep trough and pow! Messed up the toe piece too. In my early teens I broke a tail just like @saltyants picture a long time ago. Ludicrous speed backseat landing off a jump.

Kneisel Magic star . 82/63/76 180 s I haven’t been able to find much information on them. I found them at a yard sale 15yrs ago $15.00 still in plastic. I mounted some old tyrolia 350’s . There’s hardly a scratch on them. I’ve only skied on them three or four times.

3/5/25 Robins and Running water. Bought a Flashback day ticket but didn’t get there till after 4:15 , too late for any contest. My old stretch pants are very absorbent “ Vintage 1982 “ I did get some laughs from some of the older employees. I’m amazed I could barely still fit on the last clip. Skied my old Kneisel magic star skis. One run and done, just to skinny for the slush. Looks bleak, F lift side is clinging. I got a run down the last 3’ wide strip on Sasquatch . Skied nicely considering.

I’m not train savvy. How many people does it take to operate? My wife and I had a discussion the other night about there being two locomotives. Is the second one connected electronically or is there a separate crew?
