    3" fresh light fluffy stuff, 12* and sunny with no wind. Changed our routine and were on mtn at 8:45. Fresh powder on top of groomed cord. Just perfect (looked like the pics of Blue this morning), no crowds or lift lines as usual. We were the only patrons in lodge when booting up at 8:30. Skied the mtn, same 9 trails open today with snowmaking on Slalom and the West side of mtn. Groomers working on lower Tunk, the snow bowl, and around the quad lift. Back to cabin for breakfast, a shower, and change into drinking attire. 😀 Life is good..... Sorry to much fun for images.

    We get an application annually via snail mail. There aren't any reserved spots, except for the owners and the ambulance. We park wherever there's an open spot but usually can get close to our favorite spot and the 72 steps. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    End of season parties, 50th birthday party, random weekend get togethers. But, Elks management frowns upon it and threatens to have violators prosecuted. I never heard of any police action but the threat is always there. We buy a lodge parking pass (very hard to get, there is a waiting list) and park 72 steps from the bar entrance. Life is good....

    Temp at 8* when we started. Brisk 20+ mph winds. Triple layer player. On mountain at 10:15. About 30 season passholders and 30 ticket purchasers. Conditions were firm with decent cord, no cookies, and some blown powder. Skied all open trails (9) really only three from the top. Trails of the day we're upper Tunk and Susquehanna. Needless to say, No Lift Lines... Sun is now out. Beer is cold and tasty.
  9. Grrr totally agree... Just stepped outside TLCITW and the temperature is 6* with a Biting Wind. We'll wait until double digits before our first tracks of the season today. BTW 2" fresh. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    I still own a retail store, now my great staff is running it, but I check the books regularly. [emoji16] Also I eliminated one of my departments and that allowed me to cut back. Plus I saw too many friends and employees die suddenly or slowly, and I said....F it and retired. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    They've been there a long time. Seriously, if anybody is in the area and wants a tour (and a beer). I'll be happy to show you. I can usually be found at the first seat of the bar at the line to enter the restaurant. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    I'm Retired so anytime that works for the majority is ok with me. If it's like prior years, make the date a Wednesday in January or February, and I should be able to get coupons for $25. lift tickets. (going to NH early Jan, so not then) Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
