They already got another hamster and wheel what more do you want them to do ?

The multi mountain pass like Epiq or Ikon or Indy is a fantastic idea that is a total no brainer. Where I'm not sure I agree with VR is that snow sports can be run like Walmart. I think Katz was a corporate raider type who saw value and dangled a big juicy treat at skiers while he took money out of the actual resorts and their economies and put it in like 9 peoples pockets. Does anyone know what happens if it doesn't work ? If you could get a group vote would it be a fair trade ? Is VR ASC version 344392853 ? I doubt it, they have a big ass pile of cash and it wouldn't be hard to get their shit together but I still say it's not a good deal for snow sports.

Love some high peaks daks action and it should be awesome skiing this week. The mountaineer is in Keene and is probably the best mountaineering shop in the north east. Their books alone and they have every piece of gear on earth.

I didn't remember you being super pro vail at least in my mind it was alot of Rodney's crew that thought it would be the second coming.

I loved the box until they poisoned all those people but I'm confident thats all in the past. Can you imagine how angry all those peeps who were dying for Vail to buy Blue would be if it had happened. I remember every dumb ass was sooooo excited to potentially be on the pass 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

If you factor in that it's less than half the price of the others it definitely scores higher. A whole meal at in and out is less than a burger at the shack bur I'm biased as I have really good memories of in and out.

The best burgers and shakes in fast food, In and Out is close Whataburger further back but the Shack reigns supreme. The only one I haven't had is Culver's. Shake Shack is to McDonald's as Ferrari is to Ford so them and Wegmans won't come to reading as Berks people are too cheap.

Fuckin sweet day, sunny half way up the road and then wham blue cloud in effect. Sidewall deep sticky icky pow turns made for a surprise super sweet day and covered up the cookies you can still feel underneath. Surprise snow, surprise shake shack hashtag blue my mind

The universe shines on blue the true today, the triumvirate of MacArthur fast food is complete. Voltron has formed, the power rangers have morphed the almighty Shake Shack is coming to MacArthur road. Short of them adding a 1000ft of vert to blue this is the best news.

It's always super nice just to be there when it's empty empty. Just go stand around for 30 seconds and look at the place without 4 million Jerry's everywhere it's alot easier to appreciate. Sounds like top quality tail gunning snow, its soo wet your getting alot of base suck and snow sticking to the bases. Should be nice all groomed out and with some time to dry out.

2.5 inches in the ding when I went to get pizza. Would be a killer storm if it can stay all snow. Wet and thick like a milk shake.

I almost don't want to say it out loud but blue has been in serious boner donor mode. Everyday for the last 10 or more has been waking up next to the person of your dreams nearly as hot sibling. I rode switch like 6 or 7 times in a row, just a near perfect carpet, plunging at full speed, Ronco effort turns the whole way and switch didn't even have the best snow. Top fucking notch lot session, massive props to Enjo for a surprise feast. Nothing is better in single digits than delicious hot food and the one meat that was like hot butter, just crazy good. Everything is everytime and still it's like fuck is that good. Round of applause to Atomic too for throwing down on gs skis after running to Mars yesterday, that's Shane levels balls out. Snowing here about an inch so far crazy to say but hope it doesn't fuck up the snow LOL LOL LOL

And it's 3 runs at JF, no hate but that's 3 trips down the learning trail at blue

Today was so good, really really good snow, excellent lot shenanigans and major bonus points for a roadside America reference. Excellent vibe all day and I was super impressed with the chalky blown over the bumps on coming soon. The trench skiers left is getting deep but maybe a shame the best guns on the hill are being used to make bumps. Tits Mcgee seeing everyone, a Glenn and edge day was unexpected on the coldest day of the year so far.

The widowermaker midway lower main line is awesome once the other side opens and you can get a clear run with decent snow. The last little pitch of raceway into the roll over on midway always makes you want to check speed at least for a millisecond. Warm and the snow was so good on main and pretty good elsewhere. So nice to have switch back even if the snow was just ok. They even ran both chairs. Tomorrow is going to test the stiching on my clothing but this has been a very good stretch of snow for blue. Basically since it's gotten cold all they've done is open trails and within two or three days the snow has been quite good.

What's that Seinfeld thing when your girl is arguing with your friend......Do I want to be right or see this girl naked again ? On principle I would say ski but I'm also addicted to titties so I can definitely understand the dilemma. Different strokes I say.....also I'll be there all days, peeps better sack up for Saturday

With coming soon being a legit trail for the first time I don't think there is a good answer outside of run both. I would think the sixer is more reliable but not blowing onto the quad will help alot

Benm and I skied this morning, cold but warm super cold with good sun and no wind Razors first run was OK but after that the upper headwall was a mine field of cookies. Lazy was near western groomer and main outside of where the pipe burst was very good. Personally best part of the day they only ran the sixer which made coming soon skate to. It wasn't bad at all, maybe a minute or two and then it only had like 3 tracks at 10am. Guns where on the main headwall which kinda skunks it but I say that's the best way to run.

Flying can be stupid annoying and like everything else some of the employees are so dumb it's hard to comprehend but it is still flying. The alternatives aren't really alternatives and your still riding along half way to space drinking a soda and watching tv. It's so dope we totally take it for granted. Luggage on a ski trip can be a real pain in the ass but that's also on the skier. Fly with one kit and the essentials that are hard to rent carry on or your asking for trouble eventually.

Switch is still top 5 trails on the hill...they gotta run the sixer the quad is down every 20 min. Maybe going to try to get up in the morning tomorrow, mad work shit but I got the itch

Coming soon has an experts sign right so run the sizer and make it skate to terrain Monday through Thursday mornings. The quad won't run as the main valley chair all season

It was soooo nice to get out and ski and main street was pretty nice snow to put the hammer down. They should have pretty much everything open this weekend as they were blowing the fuck out of everything not open. Only thing I didn't get to was the titties deep on widowmaker.

They key difference between ikon and epiq is how they are run and the setup. Ikon is alot of Kls alterra which are running essentially the same old skiing model which is real estate. In that case if you devalue the skiing you devalue the real estate. Additionally much like blue or Killy or 10000 other places when they aquire they do so more surgically and retain far more of the in place workers. They are private and do not have to report numbers so quietly throwing money at people totally works. Epiq is public and has to report numbers so they are alot more hesitant to put money on the table to have the essentials run and the union thing makes them piss their pants. They are straight up Corp style, extract every last crumb of value by consistent aggressive cost cutting and bare bones running. Rumor is VR is building a response Ski Patrol to go to PCMR or Vail if something happens there LOL LOL

Absolutely, I'm dying to get out, Tuesday I think is the only morning I have work shit. Maybe it's a good thing and hopefully everyone gets it and shit can chill then for a hot minute.

This far out better to be out of the bullseye, it still has to show rain, ots, show 48" in Manhattan and then come back to reality but that's a shiton of moisture.
