GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 8, 2015 Report Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Hey all, I'm back from a fun session at Blue mountain the true mountain at 7:28AM after like 3 hours of sleep due to closing down the bar last night and a time change...In the house were Indigio, Atomic Jeff, Johnny Law, Phillycore, TP4, VTMark, JFBBDan and alot of Tom Dick and Harry's. Razors was open initially and I got two runs on that and it was good except the whoop dee doos are annoying. Nightmare to Dreamweaver was nice softish cord..challenge opened late and was poor grooming on the top mini cookies and good from the middle down. Main Street and Switchback were both good as well. There was a skiercross event which made lazy mile the full mile only along with no crossover to homestretch which mead shuttl and lower park extra conjested. Paradise was pretty good but a little slow..snow from 8-10-15 was full on winter snow but I'm guessing now with temperatures in the low 40s it's becoming spring like. I hungout in the parking lot for as long as I skied. When I first got to the lot I was told that while I was in the bathroom some goober tried to park way on the end of the row with half of his car sticking out into the travel lane out of the parking lot. The person I guess was told by a PASR that he'd prob get towed for that as it would block hundreds of cars. Well a minute later as I was debooting the same guy asked if I would move my car over along with atomic Jeff's closer so he could scooch his X5 in. I said no and he didnt accept that and just stared then called me an asshole and said if I had kids I'd understand and his wife and kids were already out of the car. So the jack hole who thought he could use pushiness to get a prime parking spot at 1030am ended up parking across blue mountain drive about 150 yards away and then walking all the way to tubing where he could have parked in the first place and I guess tubing was beyond crowded and some went in and just left. I wonder if they ran out of rentals. Anyway people were asking what other places they could tube at. People are dumbasses and wanted exact directions to bear creek I said look it up in your phone as I heard people talking about turning at the turkey hill and suggestions to go to Shawnee wow just wow shit was hectic woo. The parking lot was getting muddy Matt edge is out now on an rib injury and me AJeff and J Law ended up going to covered bridge inn. Was a good ski day. Better conditions than yesterday morning almost equal crowds and a little drama in the lot. Edited March 8, 2015 by GrilledSteezeSandwich Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 8, 2015 Author Report Posted March 8, 2015 Other comments..day 41 for me..Guy at CBI asked if I thought Blue would still be open next weekend with this warmer week coming wahahahahooey. I'm holding out hope for another powder day. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 8, 2015 Author Report Posted March 8, 2015 Also I guess tubing was sold out for the early and mid day sessions and guy would have waited till 3pm to tube. I think scout weekend filled tubing up pretty good. Good for blue they made major loot. Maybe they'll put in a 7-pack. Quote
Johnny Law Posted March 8, 2015 Report Posted March 8, 2015 Great weekend crazy crowd.....good to see the jfbb crew in the house. Quote
phillycore Posted March 8, 2015 Report Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) After you guys left.. VT Mark, TP4 and I headed back out..... The vip line at the quad made it so we could just lap shit without any real wait at all even though people were overheard saying that they were there for 2 hours and only got 3 runs in. Sux for them. VT Mark and I hit up the glades which skied awesome nice and soft. We lost tp4 somehow along the way. Awesome Spring conditions straight hero snow. Ran into nastar Glenn and rolled out just about 4. On the ride home I tried to grab a coffee at the DD but they were out of syrup.....so no go. Grabbed up a hot n ready little caesars pizza in Chester instead as I was hungry as fuck.....in my ski pants and crocs. Luckily I didn't get shot for poor fashion sense as 99 percent of the clientele was wearing bb shorts with their boxers hanging out at the top and tims . All in all a excellent day.

RidgeRacer Posted March 8, 2015 Report Posted March 8, 2015 Still busy as hell. Snow is straight up sugar with some slick spots mixed in to keep you honest. Comfortable weather. not a bad evening Quote

Probably had jersey plates on too. Fly fishing has these ass holes too. Glad you handled nonchalantly. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Probably had jersey plates on too. Fly fishing has these ass holes too. Glad you handled nonchalantly.Yes jersey plates...he did have a BMW so probably successful in business. I thought it was funny that he said to me wait till you have kids one day. First of all I'm 35...most guys my age already have kids so how did he know I don't have kids...I actually think I'm gonna start carrying a picture of a random kid in my wallet. Maybe I can work the single dad angle with the ladies that way lol I literally said like four words to the guy...No and park over there Edited March 9, 2015 by GrilledSteezeSandwich Quote
indiggio Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 Finally the temps came up and the sun came out and along with it came the hero snow. Skied so many bump runs I can hardly walk this morning... Spectacular early spring conditions. Couldn't believe the crowds still around at 4pm! Thank you Blue for the VIP lines! 1 Quote
tnt Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 Was there from about 10 to 3. Packed. Good conditions though. Saw the t-bar but didn't ski it. Best bumps were on chute. Finally skied Razors this year....always closed other wise. Going to stowe this weekend and canada with family for spring break, so that was probably it for blue - and the pokes - for me this year. Great season. 1 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 I can always count on an indiggio post at 6am.... TNT...sounds dynamite!!! Have fun at Stowe...looks like they might get a snowstorm this weekend. Where are you going in Canada!!! Quote
tnt Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 Tremblant. Late spring break, so we decided to go as far north as we could to hope for cold temps and good snow....we'll see! Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 Tremblant. Late spring break, so we decided to go as far north as we could to hope for cold temps and good snow....we'll see! Are you combining Tremblant with Stowe??? I haven't skied there before but spent alot of time in Montreal and Quebec City in college!!! Quote
tnt Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 No. Tremblant will be last last days of march, first days of april. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 No. Tremblant will be last last days of march, first days of april. Wow you are a driving machine!!!! Have fun!! Quote
indiggio Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 Was there from about 10 to 3. Packed. Had to be a record setting day for Blue. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 Had to be a record setting day for Blue. How long did lines get early afternoon??? I don't think it was as busy as record days of years past. Quote
Johnny Law Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 How long did lines get early afternoon??? I don't think it was as busy as record days of years past. Agreed, a few years back they did like 14k on a saturday and 16k on a sunday, I remember that was just crazy crazy, people fucking everywhere. Quote
tnt Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 Had to be a record setting day for Blue. I remember a couple of days two years ago that were as crowded as this....at least it felt like it. Wow, were those lines long.... Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 I remember a couple of days two years ago that were as crowded as this....at least it felt like it. Wow, were those lines long.... Over 30 minutes??? It's why you can't arrive at 10am. That's when all the jersey people show up. I got 11 runs from 8-10:15. Should have been like 15 if no lines. Quote
indiggio Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 6-pack lines where all back to the end of the snow, which was a MAJOR hassle due to the event. Quad lines were looping back up home stretch. Had to either fight through or skate uphill a bit to go around to get to VIP line. Both were as long as I ever saw them all the way until around 4pm, when they finally started to subside. At least I got to have my annual waffle with chocolate this weekend! Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 stoked to see Doug on the Mantras yesterday, usually i see him rocking some giant fucking fat skis. mantras are the best ski in the world and it was good to see Doug realized that Yeah it made me smile when you noticed the Mantras...a shame Matt Edge was out because I was hoping for some ski pointers from him in the parking lot. Phillycore drinks the same beers that college chicks like lol Nice indiggio glad you had your waffle sangwich!!!! 1 Quote
