  1. Hey All, I'm back from the first day of skiing this year and my 20th day of the season. I skipped out on Mickey Dee's breakfast and had some crackers, pita, hummus and apple slices. Arrived at Blue mountain the true mountain at 7:24am and I had -2 but others had as low as -8 so I'm going with around -5 at the base and a few degrees warmer up high. In the house were Atomic Jeff, JFDan, Matt edge, MBike Mike, PARidge, TP4, Slim, GahSkier George, Enjorales and Enjorales dad. Razors was closed right from the start so began on challenge which was a carpet. Nightmare dreamweaver was very nice as was sidewinder. Nothing was bad except a run on challenge later on closer to 930am was a little choppy. My nose and toes were the coldest parts..was good to be out skiing completing 7 straight morning sessions beginning on the 26th..it's very rare to have the week between xmas and New Years be completely rain free. A main highlight of today was the complete lack of crowds as New Year's Day people wake up later plus the cold surely scared off many of the fence sitters. Was a short session got a quick dozen or so runs and bugged out before 10am..no beers in the lot today I had plenty Saturday and Sunday. Me and atomic jeff ended up stopping at city view diner for brunch on the way home as both the BMDI and the Whitehall diner were closed. It was pretty busy but we were served fairly fast. Now I'm posting this from work..I haven't been in since Friday morning and thought I'd take in Friday afternoon and saturdays mail and get things ready for tomorrow which will be really busy plus I think housekeeping is in my room so giving them some time to do their thing before I return and put the Do not disturb sign up..JADIP

  9. Hey All, I'm back from a fun session at Blue mountain the true mountain. The temperature was in the high single digits and low teens today with a brisk northwest wind. In the house were Shadows, Atomic Jeff, Toast, Indiggio, JFBB Dan, MBIKE mike, NMSki, Nastar Glenn, Slim, Enjorales, Enjorales dad, Gah Skier George and many others. First civilian six pack again..Razors was sa weet had a nice run on it before the race team took it over. Then challenge which was $$$$, nightmare to dreamweaver was sweet as was sidewinder. With the front face skied it was off to switchback which was good and no people on the so could ski it in about three and a half turns. I tried lazy mile one along with the glades to the right which were playful and spicy 🌶. Skied some bumps as well which were scratchy. During the entire morning there there were no liftlines and I don't expect much crowd this afternoon. In the lot JFDan had his heater going and enjorales grilled up sausage, sliders and Steak and it was mad steezy yo!!! Super good. Another day of good conditions at Blue mountain the true mountain capping off a December to remember where we received 5 snowfalls and some of the best snowmaking conditions imaginable. JADIP. See everybody at opening bell tomorrow

  21. Nice report SallyCat. I haven't skied Vermont in 6-7 years. I went to college at UVM so mainly skied Stowe and Sugarbush..I never had goggle icing issues wearing a balaclava I just don't like have my face covered in snot. Hopefully the single digit temperatures New Years morning will feel balmy to you..
