President's Day @ Blue

[toast21602]

Another great weekday morning at Blue. i got up there for opening at 8 at the top lodge and there weren't many cars there at all. it was similar to a regular weekday morning. grooming was awesome. snow was awesome. weather was awesome. the sun was out. about 25 degrees or so for more of the morning. 24 when i pulled in and 28 when i left. i spent about 2 hours up there until it started getting crowded around 10. short lift lines (<2minutes) but longer than i wanted to wait on a weekday morning after getting a handful of great runs in before that. run of the day was nightmare bumps - dreamweaver - lower paradise - homestretch. also noticed that they re-bumped up challenge and put in some kickers in the middle of the moguls to practice course set-up for the comp. looks really great and they are doing a great job up there this year. again, no complaints as today was what some people like to call, JADIP.

 

 

 

 

 

see you all tomorrow morning.

it has been like that pretty much all season, except for when they mow them over for a rebuild.

Nice pics. I think I read somewhere that there is going to be a bump clinic at Blue. Last Saturday of Feb perhaps? Somebody has to find the link, I just made a cursory scan when I read it. It would be cool to do.

Enter even if it's not soft. It will still be fun.

I'll be enroute to Aspen on the 6th...I doubt that I'd compete unless it was soft, but it would be fun as hell to watch.
