mbike-ski Posted November 25, 2015 Author Report Posted November 25, 2015 Not happy about that. Bear Creek is too far to drive toslalom Wednesdays are fun - $15 club lift tix, $10 unlimited NastyR! a few beers in the lodge (cheaper than blue!) your spoiled being so close, that's easy for me to say since bc is closer to work for me 1 Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 25, 2015 Report Posted November 25, 2015 Bear Creek is worth the drive. Takes me 40-45 minutes to get there, but I have way more fun both on and off the snow [running gates] than I do at Blue. I'll be returning. 2 Quote
Justo8484 Posted November 26, 2015 Report Posted November 26, 2015 The year I would finally be able to swing it, they don't have it? Go figure. I could be into bear creek though. Closer for me to get to from work. Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 26, 2015 Report Posted November 26, 2015 As flat as BC is, I credit practicing at BC to my improved slalom skiing. Unlike at Blue where you can get going way too fast, I feel like BC is a good pitch to be able to work on things, but still be able to attack. Quote
thedude4bides Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 Not what I wanted to hear. Balls man. That was fun and I wanted to keep improving. Quote
Johnny Law Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 WTF ? That fucking sucks was having so much fun.......BC I guess for gates now.....SMH Quote
Kyle Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 Is bear creeks bar really less expensive than blue? I always thought it was way overpriced. Then again, I was a college kid last year and most of the drinking I did was tinnys on the lift or in the parking lot. Quote
poconoceancity Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 BC might not open this year. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 BC might not open this year. I was thinking that as well. If this winter goes how I think BC might have to invest in snowflex. Quote
poconoceancity Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 I bet they are booked Christmas week also. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 I bet they are booked Christmas week also. Good for them...I wish blue had a hotel. Quote
poconoceancity Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 It's crazy that they don't. BC is booked every weekend in the winter. There's no rentals or decent hotels near blue. They would do very well. I'm sure the hotel at CB will be booked most weekends this winter. Quote

Then again, I was a college kid last year and most of the drinking I did was tinnys on the lift or in the parking lot. Yes. Not only is it cheaper, it's a much nicer place to sit and have a beer. Much nicer bar, fireplaces (i think), nice tables/couches. I think the mtn closes at 9pm ? Easily there past 10:30... 1 Quote
Justo8484 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 Yeah, I'll take bear's bar over blue's any day. The prices are cheaper and you get your beer in a proper pint glass, not a 12oz plastic cup. Stone IPA was something like $8 at blue last year? That's a $6 beer in philly, and that's on the expensive end. Quote
toast21602 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 If you go to the bar in the restaurant you get a real pint glass. I guess too many hooligans up there in the winter to trust them at the top bar. Plus, everybody would put them in their boot bag and walk away. Quote
GSSucks Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 everybody would put them in their boot bag and walk away. People really do that kind of stuff? 1 Quote
