And after seeing our hills after skiing the rockies I'm like this...

The lodge is the worst I've ever seen. So glad their doing something about that. The gondi seems like overkill there.

Tonight was great. Really good snow. NMDW FTW as always. Better than last night by far. -
May see you tomorrow night. Skiing with my daughter this weekend so I'll probably be there later in the day (her pass isn't valid until 4). We'll see though.

Loaded the car this morning and pulled over on the way home from work tonight. Was kinda stuck to the 5pm arrival. Usually though I wait it out. If hearing "yo man I triangled my way down the falls" fresh off a Utah trip isn't the most depressing thing in the world I'm not sure what is. No I'm home now though

Not terrible. Its fast. The school groups on the other hand kinda suck
-
I'm here. Don't feel like starting a new thread. It's skiing...

Just saw that! Crazy good deal. #bluemymind

From 7 inches to a rain closing all in the span of 3 days. Welcome to freaking PA.

Great trip. In our 3 ski days, we seemed to have had it all...fresh, bluebird and an insanely good Brazilian steakhouse where people walked by just put piles of meat on my plate at will! I <3 Utah. A few more pics including an epic cliff jump by Dan.

So you avoid areas with snowboarders? Who does that?
-
Nope. Although I almost jacked myself up pretty good at Snowbird yesterday on a traverse called "scary corner". I had no idea that I needed speed to get over a hump on the traverse. I slowed down and ended up getting myself into a bind. Remained upright though. Won't forget next time around.

Great day today to cap off the trip. Spent the latter half of the day skiing Mt. Millicent...the bowl, trees, etc. We made our way to an out of bounds area off of the traverse. Shit was spicy in there but the snow was pretty good. Only way out was hopping off a cliff or a really tight squeeze between two rock ledges. We chose the latter. Dan skied it like he does it every fucking day then starts yelling at me to point them and go. haha. Capped it off with a few groomer runs off of crest and called it a day around 4pm. Blue bird and sun all day long which is not what was forecasted but no one is complaining. Some sun baked crud in spots but still some decent stuff in the trees. Conditions were nothing like Monday or yesterday morning but it was so nice to see the sun. Brighton is a great place. Glad I could spend a little time there this go around (missed skiing it the last few times here). Will definitely be back.

The milly lift is being a complete asshole today. Since we're sitting here might as well share our view with you all

Great day so far. Spent most of the day skiing off of Great Western. We found a ton of really deep stuff in the OB area off of Great Western lift. Dan ended up on someone's driveway. I found myself climbing uphill. Lots of good, untracked stuff in the trees (and even some right in plain sight) pretty much every where. Not crazy soft but still really good. Good day for sure.

Looking like a bluebird day on tap

Picking up tickets...

Brighton is reporting 7, solitude 3. Bird /Alta virtually nothing. Back to Brighton today!

Way to compare apples to apples. Elk in no way skis bigger than Blue. And why is it "cheesy" that they made the vert longer to claim highest in PA? Because you said so? Doug keep your Blue Mountain history facts coming.

A few more from today.

Ever. All Time. In the History of the World. However you want to say it, he's it. Granted I'm a Pats fan and probably not the best person to debate this but others tend to agree... Troy Aikman "I think unequivocally, at least in my mind, Tom Brady is the greatest. And I'm proud to be able to say that, and I know that most everyone will agree with that." Brett Favre "I think if Tom wins this game, and I never thought I’d say this, he surpasses Joe Montana as the greatest ever," says Favre. " He's what Gretzky is to Hockey and Jordan is to Basketball in my mind.

Ugh. Didn't see this although I'm pretty sure we did this or something similar in the morning. All of the best stuff seemed to be along the ropes.
