Robert2 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 Just got home from BB. Got to BB at 2PM in light rain and 55 degrees. By 3 PM lift opening time the rain had totally stopped. The surface was groomed since yesterday's riding and all footy craters and death biscuits were gone with the same as always cord hardpack. By 4:30pm the temperature plummeted into the low 30s and the snow pack did its thing... froze over into boiler plate hard as steel cord ice. Since nobody ruined the surface when it was soft..... because no one wanted to play in the rain everyone was bitching about....... by the time it hardened into boiler plate there were very few marks and it was smooth as glass and VERY fast riding. Not for the frail or faint hearted. ICE is NICE SPEED is GOOOOOOOOOOOD. Had the place to myself all night... again. How was Blue Mountain tonight? Quote
toast21602 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 How was Blue Mountain tonight? closed to preserve the snow. dont get smart. Quote
Robert2 Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Posted December 11, 2008 closed to preserve the snow. dont get smart. Holy shit. I didn't know that when I was writing my TR. We are not that far apart... Blue and BB.... it is the same weather systems with very little altitude difference so I would think that Blue would have frozen just like BB did by 4:30 sunset. I got some of my fastest speeds ever tonight. I called the ball on that one yesterday too. I said that the warm rain would make for fast slush or blue ice today and thats exactly what I got. Sorry to hear about Blue closing. I found the Blue TR from today. That had to suck. Quote

Robert2 Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Posted December 11, 2008 I don't get it. What does this mean as an answer to HOW WAS BLUE and you answer PWNED with a kick in the teeth. Maybe I'm too old for the slang but I just don't get it. Quote
Robert2 Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Posted December 11, 2008 It's all good..Blue was PWNED because Big Boulder was open tonight and Blue was closed..Is it true that you went to High School with the Fonz??? You are forgetting I AM Grizzly Adams. Quote
