AtomicSkier Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 They lost an amazing amount of snow since Sunday. I was surprised Dreamweaver was open. You could see the heat radiating out of the ground on Main Street...pretty crazy. Oh, and the 6pack was closed because there was a lake in front of the lift line. Dreamweaver...it was open. Paradise -> Dreamweaver connector Not much base left on Homestretch.... Root doing some root planning on Main Street...look a bit different than sunday? Shrinkage is a bitch.... Quote
Winter Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 Wow, even the mighty Blue is hurting real bad. I was thinking that with that awful hard/icy snow they'd look a bit better. Well, ski season in the East is a wash everywhere, Keep good thoughts for a snowy 2012-13. Quote
Johnny Law Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 they will make it..maybe...anybody ever ride castle rock late march...the crossover alot of times is two skis wide and there is a dude with a shovel. LOL Quote

RootDKJ Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 They never really had that good of a base. Anyway I'm gonna savor Thursday morning if they are still open then..and hold off on buying any gaper day supplies until Friday. Gaper day is still on if they don't make it. 1 Quote
AtomicSkier Posted March 14, 2012 Author Report Posted March 14, 2012 If they are closed the parking lot will be gated shut. not the lot across the street 2 Quote
GSSucks Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 I'm not going if there's no skiing. Im praying for no skiing then!!! 4 Quote
Ride Delaware ? Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 It sounds like lots of the longer runs off the top are hurting for snow... The runouts too... Is there any chance they reduce operations to the top lift like they do for early season to keep them open through the weekend? Quote
toast21602 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 Not sure. The bridge is still closed though... 1 Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 Not sure. The bridge is still closed though... lol I'm hoping that they make it for you guys. I'm going to squeeze a BB night session in hopefully tonight before the shit's all gone. Quote
Ride Delaware ? Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 It's rough up here as it is everywhere... Naturals are closing and lots of snow is being pushed around on the groomers... So it's t2b at Blue or bust? Sorry to hear that the bridge isnt open yet... Quote

I think at a minimum they will be able to have Challenge, Paradise and Lazy Mile open. Quote
sexkitten Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 If they aren't open have Gaper Day at the Wake Saturday night? Quote
sexkitten Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 Usually yes but not that night. It's everyone on St. Paddy's. Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 You know you can use your JF/BB season pass at blue and ski for free. Technically BB is still open so I'm not sure if they'll honor it. Quote
toast21602 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 what time are you heading up tomorrow, Doug? Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 They will it was discussed on their FB page. Nice Quote

Johnny Law Posted March 14, 2012 Report Posted March 14, 2012 I can't remember a year like this were the entire east is melting in a week....I was in Orphir one time when some warm ass wind came in an apparently they lost almost 3ft due to sublimation......blue needs some clouds with no rain Quote

We had 40 degree weather with heavy fog all day, and lost a bunch of snow, but flat across instead of in "hot" spots... Started snowing around 2, with 2 inches expected, but we need cloudy days soon... Forecasted temps are looking rough too... Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 15, 2012 Report Posted March 15, 2012 Thanks to Doug telling me about the free pass I'm at blue with my kid right now. Its actually hella fun. Conditions are good all things considered. 1 Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 15, 2012 Report Posted March 15, 2012 There's a crazy inversion. Its really warm up top. There are streams of of melting snow. I'm having a shit ton of fun though. I heard the patrollers say that they may only have one side open this weekend. Quote

I heard the patrollers say that they may only have one side open this weekend. i hope its the main street side. more time to drink on the lift. gonna be hard to finish bottles of wine though, with just two people. we will have to create some sort of pulley system between chairs... 1 Quote

Perhaps we could use a kite to move the bottle around? 1 Quote
