JFskiDan Posted July 20, 2009 Author Report Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) hello? (sound of crickets chirping) Edited July 20, 2009 by smartass Quote
fluffy Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 The Challenge glades have been thinned out all the way down as have some glades near Jane's Lane. I don't think too much has been done on the elevator. I was told they are waiting until the summer is over to start whacking down weeds and brush. There is also a rumor floating around about a winch cat coming for this winter. Might not happen, but will be exciting if it does. Quote
JFskiDan Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Posted August 7, 2009 sounds good.....so far....i was really hoping to hear that the elevator was coming along nicely though. Quote
RidgeRacer Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 I really hope they get to Vader soon. Anyway, good to hear about challenge and Janes Glade. That gives me a reason to actually go on that side of the Mt. now. Quote
phillycore Posted August 8, 2009 Report Posted August 8, 2009 Yeah... I'm with those two.... Winch cat would be sick..... Quote
jordan Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 I don't think too much has been done on the elevator. There is also a rumor floating around about a winch cat coming for this winter. YES!!! I LOVE 45 degree sheets of ice!! Quote
fluffy Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 YES!!! I LOVE 45 degree sheets of ice!! KYS Quote
RidgeRacer Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 YES!!! I LOVE 45 degree sheets of ice!! Yeah I'm not sure grooming it would be a good idea. By the way what's KYS? Quote
fluffy Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 I wasn't suggesting they would groom the elevator. A winch would be used to keep all of East Mtn. in better shape. For people who spend countless hours on message boards I figured you noobs would know KYS by now. Kill Your Self. Quote
phillycore Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 The grooming the elevator lesson was already learned.... Winch cat would be sick for east mtn in general to pull those piles up the mountain Quote

fluffy Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 The grooming the elevator lesson was already learned.... Winch cat would be sick for east mtn in general to pull those piles up the mountain That's the idea. I'm ready for JF skiing already. Quote
RidgeRacer Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 That's the idea. I'm ready for JF skiing already. You're not alone Quote
Crayfish Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 (edited) Anybody check out the blog on JFBB lately? Looks like Fluffy was right about what's going on at JF! Edited August 26, 2009 by Crayfish Quote
RidgeRacer Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 from JFBB.com... 08.26.09 | By chris "Jack Frost Mountain staff under the direction of Mark Daubert have been busy clearing out more glades, adding tower guns, replacing snowmaking pipe, and "elevator" work. Here are some teasers of what has been going on this summer. Riders this coming winter will be treated to glade expansions on Challenge and Jane's Lane. The glade on skier's right of Challenge has been extended to the East Mountain Lift. Jane's Lane has new glades also on skier's right that go to D Lift. The crews have been busy installing 18 30' tower guns on various slopes including Thunderbolt and Exhibition!" This is all good news. The challenge glade sounds like it will be sweet although it already skied down to the lift, just had some rocks and logs to look out for. Jane's glade sounds like it'll be fun too and can't wait for the Elevator. Quote
ectobar Posted August 27, 2009 Report Posted August 27, 2009 wat is the elevator? The first rule about the Elevator is you don't talk about the Elevator. Quote
