x2 Models are all relatively consistent, the outliers say maybe 20" for central PA though I think they are still working with December type ground and water temps because that's a 10/1 ratio. I'm bullish on this one but nobody really knows as PA has relatively little October snow data.

Apple was a place near Allentown, my parents were there. Crystal Ridge was some tiny place near Virginville that my grandparents would go to. I remember vaguely a place in Chester or West Chester that is now a farm.....LOL PA your 50vert farm could also be a ski area!
-
LOL I fucking knew it.

Its a NY Metro thing, think Spring Mtn but for NY instead of Philly.
-
Bridger for sure and check out Lost Trail, sick mtn, its the Powder Mtn of Montana. Also Turner is only open on the weekends & Friday, so if it snows on Tuesday you know where to be if you want pow three days later.
-
That hurts, I remember the TR thinking you guys would get eyeball deep pow...alas that is the PNW, feast or famine..... Ut is due, the last few have been decent but nothing crazy....

Accuweather sucks balls, I swear they have some deal with the grocery industry to hype bs so Suzie and Dick Chapstick buy up all the bread and milk. NOAA on the other hand is filled with actual scientists who know what they are talking about Link - http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2011/20111020_winteroutlook.html Relevant for PA "If enough cold air and moisture are in place, areas north of the Ohio Valley and into the Northeast could see above-average snow" I think the AO is going to bomb out super negative and the NAO is going to set up block for Jan and Feb, combine that with the extra moisture from GW and best season in a long time.

I don't think anyone here is actually hoping for the end of Sno but lets be frank Sno doesn't have the best track record. The not having the electricity on deal is not a sign of a healthy bottom line particularly when your leasing land to a 3rd party that requires electricity. This isn't anyone here's first ride on the merry go round, I hope they got some $$ and the place actually makes money but I wouldn't invest that's for sure. For you sake I hope they make dump trucks full of money and I'm dead before Sno is.

If you work at SR or something of that caliber the discussion is totally different, you could still be a dick but not for Blue Mtn type reasons. LOL I know of a place in PA were a liftie was riding around the bull wheel (big no-no most places) not paying attention and the chair dumped him about 30ft to the ground. "Patrol" took 15mins to get to him and then fucked up getting him in a toboggan twice. When the ambulance arrived they told the dudes that he had no neck or back injuries just a broken leg which wasn't remotely accurate. Dude ended up being fine, I still ride with him occasionally but not all ski patrols are created equally particularly at smaller mtns.

You blew a femur right ? Did they freak out ? My cousin snapped his at Mt. Snow and the first lady that showed up almost passed out after yelling about the femoral artery for five minuets. Its certainly a difficult job but it doesn't really help when the person that is supposed to help you is having a major melt down. I'm ok with the slow skiing as long as they used some common sense, Monday night at 9:30 when there are literally 5 people in the whole place is a fine time for some speed on Paradise, Saturday at noon is not.
-
I'm using the horn for every post now.......this place is going to die, its only a matter of time. Federal tax liens and business's coming after you for 60k is how it always starts. The mtn always says nothing is wrong we just turned off all electricity for three weeks to help al gore save polar bears but inevitably it all ends with the mtn closing, maybe not this year or next (depends on how deep the pockets are) but Sno is on death row for sure.

That trail and dream weaver with some variations actually have a really nice design.

Not a midget hooker but still ill

Old head who runs blue: "Get Johnson from Marketing down here, we need to figure out how to cram 2,000 more people per acre otherwise someone might be able to actually ski" Johnson" well we could cut new trails but that would require work and then you couldn't afford a gold plated toothbrush and six Pakistani maids/hookers .....or we could just recount connectors and cat tracks" Old Head: "Johnson you are a genius, please feel free to take one Pakistani hooker for the weekend but no donkey midget shit this time" Seriously I think that is how they run blue mtn....I don't care the place is really fine as it is but it is funny they way they take maybe 10-15 trails that actually go down hill and somehow that becomes 40....Spring Mtn was the best, they have maybe 3 actual trails but somehow that became 10.

Fuck you you fucking fuck...LOL I once lit the inside of my jacket on fire. I was riding I think supreme to Catherine's at Alta. Its mother fucking blowing and I can't get the smoke lit with the helmet method and have to go jacket. The problem with this is if I pull my head out of the helmet I will inevitably drop it because I am only slightly evolved from a monkey. Therefore I got to do it with the helmet on which is a problem because the jacket neck thing and the helmet's visor make it so I can't see shit. Hit the lighter and from what I can see it looks like I got the flame on the smoke but its one of those depth/single eye issues and I'm actually no where close, cue the inside of my jacket catching fire because its one of billion fabrics made from oil and not some plant. You should have seen the lifty's face when some random dude rolls by smoking a cig in 40mph wind with a giant melted hole in his jacket.

Patience doods, sounds like a bunch of virgins on their first trip around the block....October and November determine nothing, they are a bonus but that's it.

"violated my parole" is alot more of a problem than the possession charge...well at least if the circumstances are within reason (not carrying 900lbs of grade a smoke on a mexican donkey with a honk if you love Bin Laden bumper sticker)

Rossi sold the Passion 1, 2 and classic. The Passion 1 was the most popular.They were a sandwich construction, extruded base beginner ski essentially. The 163 was the longest length offered, 146 the shortest. The 06's were pink and the 07's red, they almost always came with an integrated 300 series binding they probably called it the saphir 90 or something like that. Its a standard entry level look binding so afd with a standard toe and the step in heal that was stolen from Marker 70 years ago. LOL That isn't a knock binding design in general is about 40 years old. They were 112/69/95 which would be approx 13m turning radius. Rossi also sold the passion classic which was blue and nearly identical. The Passion I was a light weight, noob ski, that tries its best to make turning as easy as possible. A 112 shovel was thrown in to try to handle some mank or slop though probably it was in reaction to the Atomic Metron which had crazy sidecut and was super popular with people who can't carve. You did a good job, so if the wife can't ski it probably isn't the skis LOL. As an aside have you seriously thought about this. Many moons ago I tried to teach my gf how to ski and took her to UT after maybe 6hrs at Bear ( in my defense she at that time had truly massive knockers) first parts of my trip sucked and she was pretty salty about it for awhile. Later on I realized she doesn't really like skiing and that is better for me because then I have time to myself and that if I'm honest I only want to ski with my now wife if she could rip. Teaching and all that shit I just don't have patience for.

Android LOL What do they say on them ? If they were made anytime after 1990 I can tell you what they are.

Old P14's, if I remember right they will fit a 26-30 but to be honest its been awhile since I've dicked with them as my foot hasn't grown in a long time.
