millerm277 Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Title pretty much says it all, I decided I don't really feel like driving the extra hour to Hunter this week...so GSS or anyone else, any ideas on if there will be much in crowds? I haven't skied Blue on weekends/holidays in a couple seasons, so I wasn't sure. I'm think the 29th (Tuesday), is probably the most likely. Oh, and have they started making snow on Switchback yet?

RootDKJ Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 I'll be up tomorrow (12/28) until around noon and then I'm thinking about going for a night session on Wednesday (12/30). I'll post up a TR on the crowds tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xNick11 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Well my bad, anyways.... Conditions at blue today weren't the best. A lot of man made snow, got pretty crowded around noon when the sun was out, around 3 pm the base layer of snow was ice with the man made snow piled into moguls which wasn't too fun. Park was solid for a little bit, then became rutted out but park crue came to the rescue and fixed things up a bit. The run in for the jump didn't seem to work earlier, but I was hitting it around 1:30 and it was perfect from the top where the pipe use to start.

RootDKJ Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Crowds were non-existent until around 10:30, then kragan and I moved over to the Quad. Lines were getting pretty rough around 11:30 and they were doing a terrible job grouping people into 6's because she wasn't wielding the broken ski pole.

Freeski919 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 I wasn't too big of a fan of the snow today. It ended up being 4-6 inches of sugar on top of rock solid ice. It was like riding in a Slushee cup. I unfortunately didn't get a chance to get off the Vista/Burma part of the mountain. And the crowds there were absolutely insane. Lift lines were surprisingly manageable from what I saw (although skipping lines with my class skews my perspective of lift lines). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justo8484 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 we got about 1.5" of rain on saturday and then it dipped below freezing. now that it's staying cold, i think things should be looking pretty good by wednesday after a few nights of snowmaking. anyone else gonna be up wednesday?

millerm277 Posted December 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Sounds like I'll be up tomorrow, and I'll get there early. Wearing mostly black, bright red boots and red Bandit BX's, if anyone else is up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xNick11 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Seems a bit windy to ski today, how is it in the Blue area before I head up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert2 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Seems a bit windy to ski today, how is it in the Blue area before I head up? TOO WINDY? What's too windy? What wind speed do you draw the limit at to declare its TOO windy to ski? IT IS VERY WINDY TODAY. Constant 20 MPH wind with 35 mph gusts. ITs 18 degrees now with todays high to be 24 degrees. The wind chill now is minus 2. So dress like an astronaut kiddies and go ski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justo8484 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Seems a bit windy to ski today, how is it in the Blue area before I head up? if it's windy at home, it'll be windier at blue. as far as park riding is concerned though, wind won't really be an issue right now cause the only jump worth hitting is at the bottom of the mountain where wind isn't really a factor. i wish they put that extra paddle tow in between lower park and central park so you could just session that jump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
