I'm hoping they hold off on the bumps until they expand terrain.

Blues problem is they often have inversions On 11/16/2015 at 6:23 PM, Ride Delaware ? said: If there ain't death cookies, it ain't Blue... Opening day the cookies can be the size of bowling balls n On 11/16/2015 at 6:22 PM, tnt said: I think I was there thanksgiving weekend - which was a week after opening, right? Main street, lazy mile, that park under the lifts, and both of the connector chutes were open with honest to god really nice snow. And also vista. Yup the snow at blue last year for early season was good cause it was cold. Quote
tnt Posted November 16, 2015 Report Posted November 16, 2015 I don't know about opening weekend, but the first day I was there, they seeded bumps. Now that I think about it, I rode the lift with the mogul instructor and I think he said they started seeded the second day they were open. Which i think is smart. I know my family often chooses blue over other places based on bumps. Quote

I know he's the guy from death of a salesman. Oh actually that's the sausage king of Chicago from ferris buellers day off. I was thinking Willy Loman and the pierogie company wasn't in the Lehigh valley it was out towards Amish country. I'm the tombstone king of eastern PA and NJ as it is. 1 Quote

I had the cole slaw with my groomer burger and cole slaw was ok, but my son had the bay fries with his burger, and they were really Good. Price was a bit on the high side $15 for a bacon cheese burger with fries, but i could hardly fit the burger in my mouth. I am no lightweight either . But FWW the valley lodge food is awful, can't eat down there. Can't figure that part out Edited November 17, 2015 by larrytbull Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 The valley lodge cafeteria is operated by an concessions company that is not run by blue mountain. Anybody ever eat at the fish and chips stand or Philly cheese steak stand? There's a coffee stand as well but not open until after the lifts open. I still wanna try one of the waffle sangwiches.
