Bigger and better? I think not. Elk is just like skiing in Vermont without the drive. Lol Actually I hear what ride is saying. Elk has soooo much potential. If I owned the joint and had that cash I would expand the resort and cut trails on the south knob, add high speed lifts and of course open the trees. Then it would almost be like skiing in the Catskills without the drive. Anyway so where is everyone skiing this weekend?

Did Jack Frost blow? Oh wait they won't open Jack Frost until New Years I forgot.

I'm in for Friday night if that happens

They never turn on the lights when they start blowing on freedom. Probably to save money... Well that and the sasquatch.

Shit. I really need to pick up my skis from the shop.

so the lights are on at Blue.

Yikes. Must've been the high velocity that flipped them around.

Yeah. Like pics of this amazingly handsome guy in his quest for a bronze medal wearing your skis.

Let's see what Santa leaves under the tree for me. Camelback style would be a bad move IMO. Blues water park would be completely separate from the slopes which is a good thing. The chateau?

They each have their positives. Frost has the trees, snow. Blue has the longer runs and lifts. Camelback has a roller coaster for people who can't ski. Its all good.

I did. I drive past it every day. Looks solid. I'm pretty stoked to ski there more this season. It may even share the honors with Jackson frost as home mountain

Blue has stepped up their game. I'm not on Facebook but I hear they post a lot of stoke, trivia contests etc. Plus their website looks really nice now. They're doing a nice job.

Jfbb are really bad at Web related marketing.

Nice to see some white stuff this morning.

They are but I'd be shocked if it happened this weekend. I would love to be wrong.

You would hate snowbasin.

Let's be honest, I don't think any of us are skiing in PA on Friday.

Its Ridge Racer...grilled cheese sandwich.

Wow. The forecast does look good this week. Better pick up my skis from the shop.

Two hundred and fifty nine left

So much corny in this... “the convenience of a daily accessible ski experience without the expense of air travel. We see an opportunity to make the ski experience more accessible, so we bring the mountain to the skier. Our metropolitan ski parks turn downhill enthusiasm into uphill advantages, creating a sustainable competitive advantage,” its website explains. 1) WTF is a metropolitan ski park? 2) are they really suggesting that Camelback is an alternative to flying out west? Its crap like this that make me appreciate areas like Elk despite their tree parole.

I was gonna take a picture but I was tired and cranky. Next time

Woke up to a dusting this morning on the grass, cars etc

Ugh I hate that terminology . The words Metro and ski area or "ski park" as they call it should never be used in the same sentence. Skiing is about getting away. Another reason to stay away from Camelback.
