mute1080 Posted February 3, 2021 Report Posted February 3, 2021 Yes it's still open with an experts only sign. Very good packed pow with some rando fluff around. Some boomer was given shadows the business about the lift line and then last run another even older dude came over to talk to me about the falls. [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849] I swear it's the same random every year that feels the need to hunt me down in the lift line to talk about falls. Part of me wants to chase him down in the line and lecture him about how shitty he skis but I lack his over inflated sense of entitlement. yOU nEeD A SPoTTeR iF yOU wAnT tO sKI lIKe tHAt [emoji854]I had a Karen this year too 6 Quote

I had half a mind to want to go back up and really giver, if I'm going to be yelled at about something I want to have least earned it. 4 Quote

Better than the usual, having a picnic 20' down from the top of it so you can't see them until you crest. 1 1 Quote

The reservation system looks more of smoke and mirrors than a working tool to limit crowds. New 4-hour and 8-hour tickets, the latter being $109 on weekends unless you buy almost a month in advance. People having more time on their hands to actually come and ski. All Pocono discount cards cancelled. Even weather turned to their advantage, hardly anybody remembers to check snowmaking pools these days. Can't wait for next year season pass prices. I'm sure, the dividends will be huuuuge! Quote

No next season when everybody is vaccinated they’ll be able to fully load the lifts so shorter liftlines but the trails will be busier. Or we have a normal ski season where it rains every other weekend and isn’t that crowded. Edited February 22, 2021 by GrilledSteezeSandwich Quote

I hope they charge $1,000 for season passes next year. I’ve heard they sold double as many season passes this year as last year and they were on sale well into the ski season. 1 Quote

I'd consider the extra $500 a surcharge for not having to wait in long lines. Would be worth it. Quote
toast21602 Posted February 22, 2021 Report Posted February 22, 2021 1) There will still be long lines if passes are $1000 2) Passes aren't going to be $1000 5 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 22, 2021 Report Posted February 22, 2021 Blue has to meet some sort of equilibrium with their season pass pricing. $429 is to low, they are leaving money on the table. Maybe $600 early bird. Quote
