Back from Blue, got up there by 8:30, on the lift by 8:50, partly cloudy with fairly fast moving upper deck cloud cover but no wind on the hill, 29 degrees and rising. First run was down Main Street, didn't appear groomed due to the lack of cord, but snow was semidry packed with some loose man made parmisan and shavings. We noticed that the specialty being served up was about 3-4 inches of fresh untracked snow on Barney's and that pretty much clinched it for the day. Aside from a run down Lazy mile, which had been groomed, and 2 solo runs down raceway and 2 park runs for some micro air, we basically did a bump clinic on Barney's all day, which was a great workout. Popped into the bar for a hot choc and a Butterscotch schnapps with Jethro and the new cutie behind the bar for about 1/2 hour and headed back to Barney's. Weather warmed up into the upper 30's by 2PM when we called it a day. Humidity was rising as well, but not a drop of rain. Moe was bustin out a sweat, underarmor, turtleneck, softshell was alomst too much by noon. Stopped at Wawa's for gas, caffeine and a bag of kettlecooked Mesquite chips for the ride home.

Wow, it sounds like things are really shaping up at Blue. At this point, I don't know if I'll be up on Friday, it's not looking too good.

Friday is full price day, they were keeping busy on Tut's and getting the 6 pack area ready. As is usually the case, Blue looks like it's right on the cusp to get either rain or snow Thurs/Fri. Tomorrow will be slip n slide in da rain. Thursday might actually be pretty decent if the rain doesn't beat the snot out of the snow.

Oh, and extra stoke for being able to post a weekday Blue TR before GSS, who was selling rocks to dead people while we pretty much owned the mountain with freshies......... :)
