Sunny cold… 8:45 Made my way to the Quad and noticed the cattle chute. Ok …. There’s going to be some law and order today. Thought I was going to be first chair but someone in Orange blasted past lol, I figured he would head for Challenge but he went elsewhere. It was a bit disappointing later on to see the cattle out of control and cramming up to the front loading area on the quad and the line built up to the gates. The six had very little line to speak of. First tracks on Challenge was the best grooming I’ve seen all year. The icing on the cake was a couple inches of snow that drifted over from the fan gun up top. I think I hit my terminal velocity, but felt safe the whole time and was able to launch off the falls lip with just as good of grooming. Challenge was so good I kept lapping it then went to main street and a little bit of snow is drifted over from sleepy, hollow onto the bumps. Blue Balmer glade was also being blown. Fortunately , the roulette wheel of fate spared me and I didn’t get stuck in front of the gun on nightmare when the quad stopped for a good five minutes. Great day like C1 said.

Off peak passes are $519.00 You could put the money towards an icon for times you want on the weekend and have bonus of other places?

Hearsay, Camelback looks pretty busy as well. Plattekill is open all this week.

Someone said NY kids are off school.

What were the cloud bases at ? Looked like plenty of thermals today.

Saturday… maybe. Pattern change looks like a fart in the wind . Warmup coming🤮 This storm was nuts, North Allentown 5” Center city 7” South mountain 12” I ended up with 13.5” One mile south of me only 5”

Low angle stuff today, nice to be out. Farm field was a little wind blown with a crust 4” down so I couldn’t make full turns. Should have done this yesterday.

I debated behind my house, it’s 300 vertical and a road at the bottom. I cheated a couple years ago and had my wife pick me up 😁 There’s some really big rocks at the bottom. So I skipped this year….Unless we get some more next Saturday?

Woke up at 4am for a bathroom trip and glanced down the hallway towards my dining room and thought I saw a tom of snow on my deck railing. I laughed and convinced myself that I was half asleep. Woke up at 6 and looked out. ??? No way! I went outside and guessed a foot. 26° and lightweight stuff. 8 Or so plowed out and it was over the top of my 12” plow! Decided to head a few miles south to a nature reserve where I hike from time to time. I was surprised to find only 6” Plan B a few miles North to Emmaus South mountain nature preserve where I toured probably 8 years ago. I was a bit disappointed to find a lot more brush than the last trip. I headed east a little more and found some more friendly area. It cliffed out and I had to detour. Only did 2 miles, the snow got considerably heavier than this morning.

Is it crowded?

Correct date couldn’t edit

Explanation . Happy for today but sad to hear maybe the groundhog was right.

Ok 13” now Planning local tour 😁

WTF!!!! Woke up to a foot of champagne powder. Bear Creek is going to be the bomb today!!!

Miss read the email, good after 4 but not until 4 on Monday.

It is, but it’s normally good after 4 PM on Saturdays and Sundays except for holidays. The contradictory email they sent me must have been cut and pasted because the schedule says good after 4 PM My work schedule is pretty flexible ,I’m not a big fan of skiing on weekends. The only thing I miss out on is skiing with the bump crew in the afternoons.

Blue should do fine.

I think they are. I don’t know what they’re charging for lift tickets but I got a don’t come around here email.

EPAWA take is not much Thursday possibly 3-5 on Saturday but more Southern progressive storm. Greenland blocking isn’t there yet ☹️

I’m a few miles north of you and it took me 2:25 hrs. I detoured by Sheetz on 145 after another detour North of Allentown and had to stop for someone who had both lanes blocked while they fiddled with their wipers. There was a plowed lot nearby that they could have pulled into. Backroads were better than the packed ice mains. Although I had to stop for a huge gust of wind that caused a total whiteout for 45 seconds, I literally couldn’t see my hood. Yeah it’s skiing so it was worth it 😁🤟

Jealous, someone got the goods . Today kicked my old butt . Wish I could have stayed longer but had to do some plowing at home , 2hrs worth.

How much snow did they officially get?

Fun day…945 -12:15 The drive really really really sucked, Coming soon main st , Barneys was primo. Someone did the old main st lift line lol. Early runs were a workout, the snow literally stuck to the top of your skis . I was stuck on the quad for 10 minutes I was thinking the power was out. Turned out someone knocked off the top safety and a patroller fixed it.

Still ski on with the other 6 idle . Definitely choppy
