You’re gonna have to suck it up and wear your fancy heated goggles at Blue. -

That sounds intrusive. I wouldn’t want to answer questions or do an app. Was it free since it was done by your college. -
Blue Mountain - COVID-19 Update
GrilledSteezeSandwich replied to toast21602's topic in Blue Mountain
Illinois is 12,600 new cases and Ohio is 6500..likely be another record today. Maybe 140,000 for the US. 47 new cases for Vermont which is the most I’ve seen for them. Vermont only has 600,000 people so would be equivalent to PA have under 1,000 new cases so Vermont is about 1/5 as bad as PA. North Dakota didn’t report yet but had 1153 cases yesterday which is equivalent to PA having over 20,000 new cases. In ND it’s so bad hospitals are full and Covid positive nurses are still expected to come to work. That’s messed up. https://www.grandforksherald.com/newsmd/coronavirus/6753876-With-North-Dakota-hospitals-at-100-capacity-Burgum-announces-COVID-positive-nurses-can-stay-at-work -

As long as you have your macadam midlayer you’re good to go. -

Yup that’s my biggest anxiety going into the ski season..usually it’s if my pass will work. I’m honestly not concerned about catching Covid in the great outdoors it’s mainly to adhere to ski resort rules. -

Oh damn. I always get holes in ski socks after about two seasons. Atomic Jeff gave me a couple pairs of medium thickness ski socks like ten years ago that I still have floating around. Not my favorites but good backups. I have to look into getting a thin buff to wear in the liftlines and on the lifts at blue. Any recommendations?? I’m also going to get another pair of leather spring gloves like the copper mountain ones I got a few years ago. I want a new jacket, new mid fat skis, helmet...on and on. I’m lazy about shopping -
This Saturday and Sunday?

Also Colorado is stricter than us and their ski resorts are opening. They only allow 25% indoor dining. -

4361 new cases and I think it’s irrelevant which county Blue is in. We are not going back into green, yellow or red according to Dr. Richard levine but there could be restrictions on hot spots like bars and indoor dining. Also carbon is now just as hot as the Lehigh valley. Biggest concern is that it gets cold enough for snowmaking late this month or at worst early December. Would be depressing if Blue was closed Xmas week like a few seasons ago when they didn’t open permanently till like January 8 -

OK so you can’t go skiing during the week or two before?? I wonder how they can prove it...there was a lot of discussion on this on the alpinezone forums. Stowe was my home mountain in college...if you need any advice on places to hit let me know closer to your trip.

Because that was a conspiracy theory just like the Trump fans saying there was election fraud. Also hating on mail in voting is like hating on having a pizza delivered or buying something online. -
Will you have to be tested and Quarentine beforehand?? Those are grate days to ski.

Things change...early in the pandemic we were all in this together..wasn’t the presidents fault about the China virus and he initially acted responsibly with the 2 week long stay at home. June 1st was a long time ago. Just like the seasons, people views and opinions change. Anyway when trump from 2025-2029 I think hell do a better job..so well that he’ll get Congress and the Supreme Court to amend the constitution to allow him to run for a third term in 2028..... -

He said a surge is coming. If I wouldn’t already be sitting on the toilet, I’d fall over from laughing. -

In Allentown they have the mayoral, school board, city council and judicial races in odd numbered years which is good and bad. Good because those candidates get more media coverage and bad because turnout is Abysmal during off year elections. I’ve only voted in presidential election years and once in a non presidential election year for Charlie dent because he used to smoke weed with my buddy Gary 40 years ago. -
Are you going back to steamboat?? I only skied there two days in 2014 and they weren’t Perder days.

@Robert2 #6 looks a little like Floyd’s but on the wrong side of the mountain.

Wow the only other place I know with two side by side gondolas is Jackson Hole.
