  1. On main st yes. The rest is "ok" Is this the pulpit they made for the TP4 statue blessing before the whole gig was nixed?
  2. Just getting here now. Channel 6 news trucks parked in front of lodge
  3. Good point! Clarification: chocolate chip cookies
  4. Hope they have a lot of cookies, the line is gonna be huge!
  5. Valley cam 4:30 AM today. 6-pac today?
  6. Congrats on all your deals. That's some pretty impressive savings for the the areas you and your family have skied. I'll give you one intangible though; friends at the mountain. The people I have met and relationships I have enjoyed with the folks at blue are awesome. Week in and week out I can count on skiing with friends even though I drove to the mountain alone. You can't get that from being a mountain nomad. Season pass rocks wherever you choose for that reason alone.

  8. I want to try to make it back late March or early April. Mountain run pod is awesome and especially so in the spring. Sadly, it was not open for this trip,. Should be open by this weekend, possibly even tomorrow.
  9. I have. Some good hero conditions to be had if you don't mind the limited visibility.. Granted, you feel like an idiot driving up but after those first few turns [emoji106]
  10. Skied with my boys back from college break. So good skiing with my crew again. This was the mountain we all learned to ski on so was especially gratifying watching them hit every kicker and jump on their way down. They're way better then their old man [emoji3]. Snow was firm but able to get an edge in. WF picked up 12" in the last week so did not look wrod like. Bumps were available and today skied well too. Cold yesterday; -5 to start and maybe warmed to 5. Today started below zero but warmed to 14. Little to no wind so cold not a problem. Some random pics: End of day we were ducking ropes Tonight is buy one, get one free at the local brew pub [emoji3] so good to be rolling with my boys again. Will be at blue This Thursday [emoji106]

  12. PDOTs is running the car ferry. But I hear their navigational system is buggy so it's on hold. Toast's kayak is the only game in town at the moment. Hence the current prices...
  13. WF picked up 3". -2F in town now. They are blowing on the mountain run pod trying to get that open. As expected, little WF is where all the action is. Only Victoria (lower) on main summit is open
  14. Don't understand the Friday talk. Wednesday night is last night of solid snow making for this stretch. Thursday night is marginal and all guns off until Monday night. My guess is Thursday, maybe Wednesday at best. Regardless, pumped to make my first day at blue sometime this week!
  15. Main st at 6:30 AM today
  16. Saw this on 33rd st today. Posting this for tp4
  17. Yeah I saw. But the Columbian contingent had a birthday that was must-attend they went to today (no one told them about earlier) so it's plan B which is really plan A cause I'll be skiing with my nieces at blue mountain the true mountain this upcoming Friday or Saturday.
  18. Yeast can't break down lactose like they can glucose or fructose. So you still can get the very subtle sweetness from the undigested lactose. This some level 3 biochemistry!
  19. Lactate ingestion is thought to enhance the blood's buffering capacity (against lactic acid build up). Bicarbonate does the same thing but you don't look as cool carrying around a box or Arm and Hammer
  20. Bell seems to be perfect. 3 are never-been-befores and one is a solid intermediate snow boarder so she can be entertained on the head wall. I am paying for 5 lift tickets, 3 sets of rentals and lunch. That's enough $$$. I'll teach em French fry/ pizza on my own [emoji3] They are not little kids; 17 - 26 yo
  21. My brothers daughter lives here. The other two are from my sister-in-laws side from Cartagena
  22. Nieces go back to Columbia Jan 8th and I have fam trip to WF 3-6th so Jan 2nd is the only date open. Fingers crossed
  23. Looks like CB has been making snow... I need to find someplace with honest begginer terrain for my never-been-before nieces 02jan
