12/20/22…excellent in spots..
Johnny Law replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
I slept through my alarm so I got there as the first chair group was pulling out. With excellent beta I didn't fuck around and took one run down lazy to warm up and then the next 8 down Main. To my last run around 1230 it was a perfect carpet and with one exception totally empty. It's soooooo nice to let the dogs really run and I really like the spot where midway falls over to main, far right entrance, early over and power down straight down the fall line hugging the left side of main it's like you've gone plaid. I think this was posted before maybe but who is on the sticker the pontoon van has on the back ? -
No way in hell I was waking up to ski this morning so by the time I got my shit together it was 3pm. Only the quad was running and with the groups the line was busy, maybe 5 or 10 mins. Everything except main was riding the sugar berm. Where it's flat its very nice with a soft sugary toping but any turn of merit was cleaned smooth until a massive berm of sugar. Sling shooting it was fun but I was thinking the lines weren't worth it until I worked over to main. With only the quad running nobody was home and I ran that 7 times in a row a only had one person on a run. From the last wiggle on midway to the bottom was super nice smooth gripy snow where you can arc them to your hearts content. Most nice afternoon/early evening but I wish they'd run the sixer. As of 530 they were blowing falls to good accumulation, razors to about maybe 6" and the learning areas. They were loading chairs on the new lift and big news of the day tubing is galactic......I like the purple đź’ś

The food up top at Ajax I remember being pretty good and they normally had a noodle option like pho or similar......mad lodge ladies for a rather small lodge and I'd bet more than half have never touched skis. Later in the afternoon they would hit the Gorsuch that used to be at the base and then right on to the bar with the hot tub outside but really there entire day is standing around

Snow was good today and pretty consistent with the exception of midway though it was consistently cookies. Super super nice first runs and it feels good to make some real turns. Most excellent feast from Enjo and chairs going on the lift to top it all off. Good weekend for pre Christmas

12/17/22…lots of new terrain open.
Johnny Law replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
Today I thought the snow was pretty good, a little firm but smooth. Maybe it's the new optics on lower main or I'm out of practice but it was hard to find a run where it wasn't all people avoidance. Racer kids didn't help at all. Good day and I may be back at it tomorrow, my daughter is sick which is terrible but good for me as then we are staying home. -
I knew you'd ride this storm, when I was thinking about it I was like tp4 will be there for sure....... No kids with their parents, the old heads are still there, we are, the diehard snow board dudes but the one group missing this year weekday mornings is no school age kids or their parents. In my daughter's school there are very few kids that are remote only so maybe that's it but so far even later in the morning it's empty.

When they first built the parks they didn't allow skiers. My cousin and I got our passes pulled like 6 times an no amount of go read Freeze magazine or references to the new Canadian Air force would help. I feel like it was only one season but they have some dumb ideas. Blue doesn't realize they are using the wrong side of the ruler....8cm is way more accurate

12/17-12/18 weekend roll call thread.
Johnny Law replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
I'm out this weekend, Christmas party weekend.....which means it should be tits Mcgee for you guys -
My earliest time on skis I think is actually the daks where we were on skis at around 3am. At a resort i think my earliest is one of them opens at 7 which is stupid early. Maybe Fourrunner at Stowe. It's still dark af. The earliest I've started a ski day was around 8am the day before, a couple of times I've driven through the night up north to ski a storm. Gotten there at like 630am, skied all day and then finally passed out. Driving all night sucks though kinda as if i try to skip a night's sleep I start falling asleep everywhere eventually.

Tonight was actually pretty good, the upper part of coming soon was smooth fast with just a skootch on top. It was effortless carving and while the lower headwall had a few spots the star was the ditch spine. The sugar had piled up deep and made for a super fun bounce. Big credit to dirty and edge for that line. Crowds weren't too bad some annoying race kids but maybe the best conditions I've skied all year and I rode nearly 3hrs which isn't bad for 1 1/2 trails plus a ski tour. Blowing on lazy, lower main/midway, tubing and the big fan guns at all the intersections.
-
Sounds like a maximum doodle turns kinda surface
-
I'll be there around 5 or so, I'll keep an eye out. It should be mad interesting and maybe pretty good
-
Nobody home, total empty bleachers and seemed more like pre covid mornings with just the coffee crew. Someone said they have no ticket deals so people are staying away as the price isn't worth current conditions
-
They are still blowing on lower main, lazy, midway and tubing and it almost has to be too warm. Piles on lazy and lower are mid deep, it goes for sure this weekend. They resurfaced everything last night, upper dis was a mine field of cookies but the rest had a decent softness. BFG and crew said yesterday was le tits and forecasted a high likelihood of le tits tomorrow morning but today was a Ridge 10/ Jlaw 6 kinda snow.
-
I'll be up around 11 if anyone is skiing today
-
12/12…best conditions of the season…
Johnny Law replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
That's A+++ knowledge and good to hear the snow was good....... I'll for sure miss all the people asking where tubing is when they move it across the street -
Today was Baskin Robbins, you got all 32 flavors in one run. The snow falling was super nice but we need another way down. Coming soon was good but the only real pitch is almost always compromised. Still super good weekend

12/10…sunny Saturday. Back to winter.
Johnny Law replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
Snow is....interesting....some good and some pretty fucking bad but we are sliding in early December and skiing plus lot time just feels so right -
12/9/22….back to the weekday grind.
Johnny Law replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
Shit was good, super nice sun and blue skies plus there was snow for sliding. The lower headwall pitch on Coming Soon is always dark af though I don't remember it that way last year so maybe I'm having a stroke -
Weekend roll call thread 12/9-12/11…
Johnny Law replied to GrilledSteezeSandwich's topic in Blue Mountain
I'll be there all three though tomorrow not until 9ish........ when did they start opening Fridays at 8am ? I like it but I scheduled a meeting at 8 as its generally been 9 opening but maybe I'm smoking crack and it's always been 8 -
Anything beyond 7 days is an educated guess at best but they can maintain a bit early next week and then hope it gets cold to push for more trails. It's dec 7th and all that jazz but once the tip is in can you really not want to get deep up in it on switch or challenge ?
-
Snow was pretty good for first day, with an appropriate level of rowdy. Super super sweet to see everyone and hang out, hopefully it gets cold and we can do this 7 days a week soon
-
It's sooooo nice out, good thing they are closed to be open tomorrow when it's for sure going to rain..........I need to go skiing LOL I'm complaining about dumb stuff but at least it got cold last night
-
I wad super stoked for Friday but now it's Sunday for me. Fucking weather but it's still early December
