Is lower main gonna make or break your experience? I’m one of those it’s all about the base people cause seen too many ski seasons where they either had to close a few days or down to almost nothing cause spread so thin…one more cold spell like this before Xmas they’ll be like 2/3 open

I think Blue has pretty legit trail names IMHO..at least it’s not some theme like Shawnee or Camelback. I’d Blue mountain had a pirate theme or like some sort of Disney+FurryFocker thing would be wicked weird

My skis are dryer and older than you know what lol

Hey All, It’s almost opening day and opening weekend. In two and a half short days, Blue mountain the true mountain opens for their 48th season. They snowmaking cannons have been going balls to the walls for several days and continued seasonably cold weather with periods of sun and clouds will persist throughout the weekend. Anybody planning on skiing this weekend or are yall waiting until more terrain opens? I’m planning on being there…and I think it’s gonna be a nice opening weekend. I usually don’t start these threads until Wednesday but I’m so Excited….

I’m 99.9% sure not

I agree and mentioned it. When I was in middle school the beginner package with the school with first time lesson vista and school hill ticket and rental was like $20 and lift and rental was $19 for all area ticket and just lift ticket was $14. There were also coupons galore for like $25/35 first time in skis packages. The barrier to entry to ski a lot is high but to just learn at a local spot maybe should be a little less cause you hook them and then they buy a bunch of stuff

Have you skied Long shot at Aspen Snowmass yet? Interesting him to blue square trail that’s super super long

I think their focus is on getting a solid base on Paradise, Barbs Bush and easy out vista to Burma. Lazy is a fairly fast run for them to open, people on Blues FB were complaining about Main Street.

You love sitting on the back of your skis for that extra boost.

I’m guessing 17+ trails 4-6 routes. Gonna be a real nice one. The new Blue is spoiling us early season. No upper lot Main Street chair mumbo jumbo. The Chinese downhill is fun but love the cruising options for opening day and people spread out more.

They could easily open tomorrow or Wednesday but the juice isn’t worth the squeeze..build up that base expand the terrain. The guy who runs snowmaking and mountain operations doesn’t mess around…high five to the snowmakers out in the cold

Guess I’m not the only one checking out the webcams. This is just incredible stuff to see. This morning it was below 20 in the A…upper 30s in the afternoon felt pretty nice.

I sort of like when it’s lazy with no falls but I’m a bit contrarian..

Somewhere in the horseshoe..

Wow

Holy Cannoli

Shadows has been extra silly lately, he must have got his hands on some left handed cigarettes.

Was the same shit last year and previous.

Last season Blue opened at 8am instead of 9am to beat out Jack Frost

I don’t know if all y’all have checked lately but the stoke market is rising!!!!

@RootDKJ they are blowing on lower paradise along with homestretch upper paradise prob barbs bush free fall and definitely school hill and easy out and vista and burma and shuttle and the horseshoe and the Western Tubing lanes…

The twins prob share one pair of goggles so I get it lol

Get it Girl!!!

What happened at the end of last season? I think Elk is just happy with the way things are.

Anybody check the webcams?? The stoke market is rising… 5 more days.
