Nidecker Posted November 9, 2010 Report Posted November 9, 2010 (edited) http://www.mcall.com...38.photogallery Opening end of November....... I'll believe it when I see it. Wasn't their earliest opening ever three years ago? I thought they opened something like middle of november. Hate when you search for blue mountain ski area more search results come up for blue mountain resort in ontario. Edited November 9, 2010 by Nidecker25 Quote

Johnny Law Posted November 9, 2010 Report Posted November 9, 2010 It's not gonna be cold enough this year for s November opening...mid December is standard. That's incredible the way you can predict the future Seriously though your probably right but it's nice that they seem to be prepared if we luck out and it gets cold early. I believe they were delayed last year because they didn't inspect their lifts......definitely better than that. Quote

I believe they were delayed last year because they didn't inspect their lifts......definitely better than that. Ya I never rely on Blue opening around Thanksgiving anymore...would be nice..but I don't give my hopes up I was wondering what happened to Adderick. he died in a horrible ski accident Edited November 9, 2010 by Switchsideskier.

Switchsideskier. Posted November 9, 2010 Author Report Posted November 9, 2010 (edited) They have a new ski shop. I seen the video and it looks just like the old one. I good place to go if you want to pay full retail. HAHAHA Edited November 9, 2010 by Switchsideskier. Quote
Switchsideskier. Posted November 9, 2010 Author Report Posted November 9, 2010 (edited) even funnier is Blue didn't delete my comments on their facebook page.. Ya that's really lame they delete them. I de-friended Blue Edited November 9, 2010 by Switchsideskier. Quote

RootDKJ Posted November 9, 2010 Report Posted November 9, 2010 I still think this is going to be a clusterfuck. Anyone want to bet how long it takes before we see the first chair with 7? Quote
RootDKJ Posted November 9, 2010 Report Posted November 9, 2010 ..I have a feeling I may get owned skiing into them at 35mph. ..will there be a chair with 7 peeps...yeah.Asian invasion hits hard.. Quote
Shadows Posted November 10, 2010 Report Posted November 10, 2010 its nice to know they have FIVE fanguns now. and i think the rf shit will work out fine. judging by that pic its close enough to the lift to where people wont be too stupid to figure out the gates are the point of "no questioning who is fitting on this chair" Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 10, 2010 Report Posted November 10, 2010 don't like how the concrete base is so high....in the spring they're not going to be able to (or make the effort to) keep enough snow to cover the 90 degree angle of the base...danger! Quote
AngryHugo Posted November 10, 2010 Report Posted November 10, 2010 it's going to be unbelievably funny when the first person get the red light trying to go through the scanner. BZZZT! pointing and laughing heartbreak Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 10, 2010 Report Posted November 10, 2010 it's going to be unbelievably funny when the first person get the red light trying to go through the scanner. BZZZT! pointing and laughing heartbreak ya...like when they deactivate my pass again.... Quote
mbike-ski Posted November 10, 2010 Report Posted November 10, 2010 anybody remember how soon they bumped up barneys on main st last year i remember it being pretty early - maybe as soon as they opened the lower half of the mountain? Quote
Switchsideskier. Posted November 13, 2010 Author Report Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) So I was at Blue to hand in my groups deposit yesterday heres some news: Robert2 will love the new lockers, however they are only near the skiers-store/first aid area. They added more of the older lockers everywhere else, I don't think anyone will have any trouble finding a locker. The new ticket office area is very impressive and handicapped accessible. The rental shop has been expanded almost out to where the seasonal lockers were, however it is nowhere near completion at this time. Will be very nice once finished. The summit deck is there as well as as the new fancy courtyard. Ski school has been replaced with a larger building which extends almost out to the ski school paddle toe. You can now ski directly to vista, all the trees have been removed. BTW, the door by explorers is no longer accessible, they moved it down near group sales, and made it a nice very wide double door. They were also doing some patching work on the drive-way to the mountain as well So far, im impressed. Edited November 13, 2010 by Switchsideskier. Quote
