moe ghoul Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 I'll only go if TT drives and GSS gives me a voucher. And somebody buys me lunch. And a beer.
moe ghoul Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 If you want a voucher you can have it..but you're buying me lunch..and a beer I'll counter with a brownbag lunch and a Longtrail.
phillycore Posted January 14, 2009 Author Report Posted January 14, 2009 It might turn out to be a longtrail slushy
RidgeRacer Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Sounds good with me..I can sleep in.. 9am is kinda early you know
bigdaddyk Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 9am is kinda early you know I'm probably the worst person there is for getting up in the morning. Outside of ski season I typically get out of bed around 12:30- 1:00, but I am able to change for ski season.

I HATE getting up early. I HATE cold mornings. But, I finally gave in this season and have been getting as close to 1st chair as possible. It is SO worth it when you do.

It is SO worth it when you do. waking up early and getting first chair beats the hell out of sleeping in till 10 and be in the tidal wave thats coming in at 11 and on
sexkitten Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 01/17/09- I'll be at Blue 01/24/09- I'll be at JFBB for the 1st time ever for the official PASR day. Can't wait to meet all the people I never have.

Outside of ski season I typically get out of bed around 12:30- 1:00, but I am able to change for ski season. When I was skiing mostly at Jack Frost mid week, I figured since it's not going to be crowded (unless it's a WMMR day) I can sleep a little longer and not rush out. Whenever I ski outside of PA I'm up bright and early. Edited January 14, 2009 by PA Ridge Racer

Whenever I ski outside of PA I'm up bright and early. i was thinking the same thing. it doesnt really get packed weekday mornings unless its a holiday or it snowed the day before. i should sleep in a little instead of freezing my ass off waiting for the first chair and skiing before the sun comes up.
TT C6 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 I've been getting there early because the landings get icy in the late afternoon, it's got nothing to do with crowds.

RidgeRacer Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) FAQs..Frequenty Asked Questions.. What's the best place to park at Jack Frost? What time do tickets go on sale? Is there ski check or should I bring a lock? Anyway despite forecasted AM temperatures of single digits below zero Saturday morning..I'm in like Flynn. Moe Ghoul will be in the house and I might boot up indoors..yeah...my fingers were a little numb booting up today in 18 degrees..it's a for real winter. I will be hitting every woods stash I can find..due to the cold I'm not bringing a camara..no way..but..props to those that bring their camaras and take pictures. Everybody is welcome..and I'm guessing there's gonna be alot of PASRs at the top of the Exhibition lift at 9AM on Saturday January the 17th..a pre-PASR day..I also have a few leftover PASR stickers..for your helmets or skis.. What time does the Trans Am start at Boulder??? I might want to watch some of that as well.. 1) The best place to park is in the lot directly across the access road from the lodge. It normally filters in all different directions from there as it gets busier. Well I should say the best place to park is the VIP section up front. But I think you still need to VIP pass to park there. That's essentially ski in / ski out from your car. 2) Don't know but I'd venture to say 9. 3) Bring a lock, there's no ski check. 4) Don't know about the Trans Am.

AtomicSkier Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 If you get there early enough, front row in that parking lot across the street is not an issue. People always seem to be slow to get to JF.
bigdaddyk Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) IWhat's the best place to park at Jack Frost? -- Across from the lodge. There is also parking that is nearly slope side, just past the last trail, but that puts you onto the ski school area. I only park there if I get there really late on weekends. What time do tickets go on sale? --Not sure on the time, but I always see people waiting at 8 am, to head down and they already have tickets. I'm pretty sure they start early (call to be sure). Is there ski check or should I bring a lock? -- There is a FREE ski check near the message board on weekends. I used it this last Saturday. It is surrounded by metal barrier racks. They give you a wrist band with a number on it. Edited January 15, 2009 by bigdaddyk

That's essentially ski in / ski out from your car. VIP parking was actually done away with a couple years ago. The area you are referring to is for "authorized" people. A year or so ago, they let you park there and I was there all the time. A few years ago they charged for that area, for slope side parking.
phillycore Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Posted January 15, 2009 Yep what BDK said.... Ridge - You seriously never saw the ski check before?? Maybe it's only a weekend thing?? I never use it but it's there... It's easier to use my lock than walk across (I'm lazy and I normally only lodge it when I gotta wee wee)
Barb Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 The thought of Jack Frost with their slow ass'd lifts on a below zero morning doesn't seem that appealing to me..I'm thinking of maybe taking a raincheck on Jack Frost maybe in February after my Jackson Hole trip..and of course Moe Ghoul would still get my spare voucher..maybe I'm just a wimp sitting here in my heated office.. You fag. C'mon if my 8 year old can hang so can you. It wouldn't be a pasr day without you Doug.
ectobar Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) There is definitely a ski check. Its in between the ski school learning area and some little shack. As your buying your ticket, look left, you'll see it. didnt see bdk's response...he tricked me out with all that answering in a quote box jazz. Edited January 15, 2009 by ectobar
ectobar Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Are there any mogul runs at Jack Frost where I can at least get warm??? I remember the runs being like 30 seconds long vs 1 minute at Blue.. 30 seconds and 1 minute both suck. I can't wait to get out west.
phillycore Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Posted January 15, 2009 You fag. C'mon if my 8 year old can hang so can you. It wouldn't be a pasr day without you Doug. DAYAM!!! LMFBO
ThinkSnow Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Doug's just scared of meeting TTC6. Come on pansy, bring it.
phillycore Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Posted January 15, 2009 Doug's just scared of meeting TTC6. Come on pansy, bring it. as sad as that may be... you might be correct Then again TTC6 hasn't replied back weather he's even coming or not... JMO - If this was at Blue Doug would be there. The best way to make the runs last a little longer and to keep your body warm is to... MAKE SOME TURNS Then they'll last 33 seconds....lol
