Thats what i would say too....that i have a plan. seems like they are getting some less than friendly fire for not making snow when the possibly could have.
-
^^^ you need a snowmobile.

I have been up since 3:45 am.
-
I ended up driving through 6 parking lots, using them as short cuts to other roads, had to use back roads...like neighborhood roads. but still got jammed up a little with people stuck on little hills, people sliding down shit into ditches. At one point when i was stopped, there was a range rover in front of me. Once we started moving again hid slid dead sideways into a sign, and sort of getting sucked into a ditch. He just hit the go pedal to get out and ran the sign post down the whole side of his car. Is it me, or is all of this just getting worse? I guess part of this is getting more snow than predicted. But i feel like most people are making poor choices by venturing out in the snow with their honda. Lots of people are just blaming Penndot, like there is some magical way they can clear the roads with cars all piled up on them.

Almost home. 15 miles. Close to 3 hrs. What fun.
-
And there goes another cop.
-
30 mins = 3 miles thus far. Cop car just went past me on the median. That cant be good.
-
^^^^ oh you r screwed.

They are upping totals around Philly as we speak. i would imagine snow will be on the higher end or over forecasted amounts for up there.
-
Or Boulder.
-
Snowing decent here in Malvern. Just enough on the roads to make them slick. Already saw a 3 car accident. People suck at driving in the snow.
-
my guess is they feel they have enough on Freedom for now, turned some more on Tannenbaum, and love. I think they are going to be the only game in town for a while, so they are probably putting down enough to open trails, and use the small windows they have for resurfacing, until next week.
-
They shut off some stuff on Freedom. My guess is they are close to good on Freedom, and concentrating on Tannenbaum. Temp is still like 20 degrees. I think Tannenbaum is very likely for Sat. They are making snow at the base of the triple lift, so if i had to guess they are working on Love. Sad to say, but it looks like Boulder will be the place to be for a little while.

Based on the forecast, Blues next window is Monday night. Tuesday - Thursday nights dont look bad, but we need some round the clock snowmaking. Forecast is so much better for BB. So much better that i wonder if they fire up snowmaking at Frost.
-
I dont have any "insider Info". Thats my guess based on the forecast is all.

You do realize this is the Blue mountain forum!!!
-
i havent been to Montage in a while now, but i still root for them.
-
i think they would make Friday at this point, and i think that would be better for them, as well, do the can thing of Friday, collect money on Sat/Sun. I think they are working on tannenbaum and love too, but i can be wrong. I think Tannenbaum would be a good possibility for the weekend, but i think love would take some more snowmaking. Blues temps look kinda marginal for a little while still. Hope that changes.

snowmaking resumes at Blue tonight by 11 pm.
-
So much snow. snowed like 16" 2 days before or something. That was a great year. snowed alot, and stayed cold. Could ski anywhere at Frost that year. I think thats the year we named that section below risk it "Roberts Run"'.

you might not get that aggressive high five i might owe you then.

Heres what i have learned watching this unfold from years past. They always do "boulder gives back", so for like 15 of the most dented, mutilated, and cheapest can goods, you can get a free lift ticket. This tends to bring out every asshole with access to Moms pantry, and a lowered honda civic with one of those cool ass exhaust pipe things. They will only spin Freedom lift when they do this. My hope is that they do this Friday. Skiing Friday night isnt on my radar at all. Hopefully they can get snow down on some other trail as well. this might be wishful thinking, but so be it. If they do, they will open that the day after the can goods fiasco. In years past, they have also promised the second trail for day 2, but opened it hours after opening. Ask Guitar73.

I might. If there are a few PASR's going, i can ride the worlds slowest lift and ski the trail with the least vert in the world. i dont think an opening this weekend would be as stupid crowded as an opening on black friday. Plus, if they do actually make the friday opening, i would owe Toast his aggressive hand shake, or whatever it was we bet.
