Saturday: Probably Sunday: Might make that a party day. Champagne anyone? Monday: Yup. Last day on the snow for at least 2 weeks

I miss the moose mascot

I completely forgot how bad their maps were, and also that they reclassified the trails. Gotta love the double blues.

I rode that pipe a few times, got to the top of the wall once and I was good. Really puts into perspective how insane the Olympic riders really are. Sno Mountain should be a case study for how investing way too much into parks (and randomly cutting down a thousand trees) is not a great business move. I really think that the super pipe was the nail in the coffin for them.

RIP the Sno mountain super pipe

They do, and they are rarely used to their full potential and they require you to have a very specialized attachment to one of your cats. All practical thinking says that they are more hassle than they are worth. When I was watching the olympics I was really thinking to myself, where do these riders even go to train? I can't think of many mountains that still have one.
-
My only complaint is that they don't have a halfpipe
-
I think it's pretty interesting that they have snowtubing open and operating at Keystone but not at JFBB. I wonder if they are assuming that people who are staying at a resort will want to snow tube and that people won't go on a day trip to snow tube.
-
So why even put them in then? Or if they are necessary why not put them behind plastic or something so people don't mess with them?

In an attempt to educate myself here, when would or when do you guys adjust those flex screws? It seems to me that you would likely just set it and leave it that way unless the screws loosen themselves. Do you ever tighten or loosen them on purpose to change the flex in the boot for certain things?

I played at the course in FDR park a few years ago, a group had a big speaker, at least 7 people playing together and a sixtel strapped on a cart instead of a bag. Keep it Classy Philly. Also I can't drink and golf, that's just weird to me.

Good Luck team PASR tonight!

Just another teenage trend I guess. I saw a guy skiing with a fanny pack over his shoulder the other day too. People just love bringing their trends with them I guess.

Every time we talk about them raising prices or not leaving money on the table we pay more. So let's not speculate. That being said the Epic pass will 100% go up at least $200 next year in an attempt to thin the herd.

Grate day. Stayed until 3 with my cousins. Lines were long but went relatively fast. The Ditch of the Fearless Leader was pretty fun today but getting a little thin in spots. Nice and soft and slidey. Main Street like everyone said just delivered run after run but you couldn't really let it fly at the bottom last noon, it was ultra choppy.

That's the first step. In a few years they will turn the overflow parking lot into a Nordic center -

Maybe Pioneer Pass is just hike to terrain now. Blue is stepping their game up in that case. Exclusive earn your turns trails are a feather in the cap Palmerton's top tier resort. -
Are you preparing a whole Super Bowl menu? Making skyline chili?
-
I will likely be there just Saturday but my two cousins, including @pyro_boarder, are interested in coming out.

Square or round? -
Here are some final pics from the last day at Keystone. I hiked out above the Outback Express lift with Skiincys Brother. Such a beautiful day. We dropped into Puma Bowl together and then I lost him in the trees. He got down to the chair just a few minutes after me though. I liked Keystone but it skied a lot smaller than it looks. The 2k very runs off of the front are great but realistically since it hadn't snowed most of the black trails were ungroomed, sun baked, bumps with some questionable troughs. Great cruisers though. If I had more time I would definitely hike the bowls more. Loveland Pass on the way back was amazing to see.

Top of White Lightning, through the trees to the bottom of Boomer. Best tree skiing in PA. Barb's Bush is a close second

We better get late March at least!

I've definitely had an open beer on a lift, on the trails and back in the lift line. Guess I'll just use a Koozie next time
