A skied Paintbrush...and I didn't break my femur...

Wow good deal on monster...I prefer sugar free redbull...

Forecast looks good for pow mow...you can always bring your own energy drinks from home.

Was Matt Edge there? It's snowing I'll be up at Blue tonight!!!

Still snowing.

Maybe June skiing.

Oh Lordy...I didn't know I knew you sold bowling alley so sort of thought you just chillaxed all the time. It's snowing here wahahahahooey

Oh ok Barb what do you do for a living???

Boom

The snow is higher than the lifts on Superstar.

I guess it makes sense to save using a vacation day.

Matt Edge lives in Philly maybe he can tag along!!!! Justo you're not flying with Toast??? And yuck on 615pm flights cause if it gets bumped you usually gotta wait till the next day to fly.

How's the new lift?

Say hi to GSSucks for me when you're out there!!!

Is next week the final one??? I thought yesterday was only week 3???

I might move to jersey to take advantage of that deal.

When the crowds stop coming the mountains close. With small crowds and discounted lift tickets and the majority of the customers, season passholders ski areas don't make the kind of revenue in the spring that they make in mid winter. If early spring is abnormally cold and crowds show up some resorts may be open for a bonus weekend. Killington and Sunday river seem to be the only resorts that try to stay open into May. Most shutdown around early to mid April which really isn't that bad.

The info some factual and some anecdotal can be found in this thread. http://forums.alpinezone.com/showthread.php/135720-This-weather-is-hurting-the-majority-of-the-ski-business/page6 Blue mountain is doing just fine business wise.

I only rode it once in 8th grade when the lines for the Main Street chair Burma chair vista chair and challenge chair were uber long. Took me several tries as it was the first t-bar I had ever been on and very tricky. I prefer poma lifts. I clue for those goobers with poor memory's is it was called the Raceway T-Bar and the length was 1,000 feet long compared to 1200 feet for the vista chair and 2883 feet for the Main Street and Burma chairs. I believe the challenge chair was 3300 feet long before it was extended into the valley.

One interesting thing I read is that alot of New England ski resorts have lost business the last month or so due to harsh cold and snow. Non die hards aren't willing to brave the treacherous roads and below zero temperatures and have been staying home. Apparently Wachusett in Mass is down 40% during the last 3 weeks. Also there was rain on XMAS and rain Sunday if MLK weekend.

I hope you brought in your tropical plants yuk yuk yuk

Toast nice times last night!!!!!

Minus 7 here.

Well I guess there was never a T-bar then.
