GrilledSteezeSandwich replied to AtomicSkier's topic in Blue Mountain
I can bring rolls as well. -
Blue must have used their fluffier attachment to turn Sierra cement into fluffy pow pow. Hats off to Blue. I'll likely be back up there tomorrow after work. What's a wind tow?

That stinks Barb. Can you wait until after ski season for the procedure?

Jay peak got over three feet. I have a feeling it's pretty solid now at blue. Everything froze hard. My car was entombed drove it into an unplowed spot and it immediately got stuck but I shoveled it out this morning. Roads are worse than yesterday. In Allentown 13.7" at the airport as of 2pm yesterday so maybe they squeaked out 14-15" -
His comment seemed a bit racist???

Hope you skip that morning coffee at home and make opening. Only way to experience fresh. -
Nice report...glad you enjoy the gnar. A lot of lower level skiers only like firm groomed snow. When you start skiing out west a lot of the conditions you experience is tracked up fresh snow...

How was the drive up there?

New Purchases... What did you buy so far
GrilledSteezeSandwich replied to phillycore's topic in Gear
All I bought this season was a pair of low light goggles, socks and underarmor. For next season I need gloves, new skis, helmet, pants and prob some hand knit jawns -

That's crazy that they were closed. This snow that we received had to be skied immediately. It's settling and freezing so no longer powder. -
Hey All, I'm back from another fun day at Blue mountain the true mountain. I woke up sometime around 5am and it was dumping snow. Looked like about 6-7 inches in the A. My drive up was uneventful and I stopped at sheetz for a donut and gas and ended up arriving at Blue mountain around 7am. Atomic Jeff arrived shortly thereafter and we drove across the street to the employee lot to see Johnny law just waking up. Root was also staying over in the lot and also in the house were Toast, Shadows, GSSucks, -Dan, Indiggio, Justo, MBike Mike, Nastar Glenn, Root, Ryan, Mrs Snowbunski, Matt Edge, TheDude4Bides and many others. Almost a foot of fresh in the liftline and a rowdy skate to second chair. The winds were howling at the top but not terrible the rest of the mountain. At the top there were drifts everywhere. First run I skied challenge. Was a combination of drifts and exposed areas at the top and I floundered a little bit lower down was very deep untracked snow. Density was a 7 on a one to ten scale with one being light and dry cold smoke and 10 being slush. The benefit of the beefy snow was that in most untracked areas you didn't hit bottom. Second run I skied Sidewinder which had tons of untracked, some drifts and more untracked. I repeated that and then went down switchback which was nearly tracked out but I found some fresh along the sides. Up Main Street chair and I had fresh on X-Ing and the right side of the bumps. Then back to the six pack. Skied a few more sidewinder runs still finding swaths of untracked and then was gonna check out honey bee bowl but seemed sketch and justo and GSSucks got after it. Then the snow started becoming mixed with graupel and then sleet and it really hurt my face. Into the lot and had some beer during the sleet storm. Then back on the snow and skied some fun stuff including the Tbar line a few times, Burma and right under the Main Street chair which had just enough snow to be good. Went to slopeside and they we're short staffed and I didn't feel like waiting an hour for a $17 bacon steeze burger so bounced skied to the base and had a beer with Ryan. Was a super fun day and props to PennDott for keeping the roads good!!
