I was really hoping for next weekend to keep things going. Shawnee is throwing in the towel this weekend. Montage and Greek havent said anything yet about closing. I dont really care about Camelback, but JF will be open next weekend. Does anybody know whats up with the dude carrying the toaster? 2 1 Quote

Montage? Jack Frost? Camelback? Suck it Rob!!! Expand Puts them at 117 days, minus any full day closings which I think were minimal.

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 117 days through today so will be 121 on Sunday. Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) Camelback also open to 2nd per employees there. Elk closing after 26th Edited March 22, 2023 by Ski2Live Live2Ski Quote
Schif Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 Pending weather maybe I'll sign up for the Pond Skim. I've got one more Epic resort day to use and really want to do some uphill (Maybe Tuckermans). So who wants to plan a trip to Vermont/New Hampshire? 1 Quote
Kyle Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 Platekill offering half off tickets for passholders of other mountains this weekend, would not be a bad alternative if they do the same going forward after this weekend. 1 1 Quote
theprogram4 Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 Hell of a run by blue this season. Tip my cap to them As for camelback, they have a track record of announcing these things and then back tracking. $60 plus parking for April tickets Quote

RidgeRacer Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) On 3/20/2023 at 10:02 PM, Ski2Live Live2Ski said: What other areas are in Carbon County? I'm sure it doesn't include Elk so the only contender would be Camelback. Nothing wrong with Blue as a ski area. It's just too crowded for my taste during peak skiing times 10-2 non work days. But crowds are a sign of an otherwise good product. Expand You missed his joke completely but the other ski area in good old carbon co is Jackson Frost. Edit and big boulder. With 3 areas Id say that makes Carbon co the ski capitol of Pennsylvania Edited March 22, 2023 by RidgeRacer 1 1 Quote

theprogram4 Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 For April the options are JF for $74 or Camelback for $72. However, I’m 90% certain camelback will not open in April I don’t have an issue with the prices, it’s just hard to justify spending money at mountains inferior to blue 1 Quote
PSUFrankenstein Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 Montage is hoping to open the first weekend in April according to an email today but not definite 1 Quote

It depends on how much I want to ski the first weekend in April…if I’m dropping that kind of Johnny cash, signature runs like Floyd’s Folly and camelbacks famous front four along with Nile mile better be open. After gas and lunch..looking at over one hundred spondoolies..for less fun than a day at blue which is free to $30 Quote
