Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted December 17, 2016 Report Posted December 17, 2016 Heading up there now. Appears they got all snow and it should have stopped by the time I arrive. Taking the TP route, which is a bit longer, as I expect it will be better road conditions. Gonna buy 3 of those $30 weekend tix. One for today, 2 for later in the season. And two of them I will pay for with a 30% discount gift card making the real price $21. Quote
Shadows Posted December 17, 2016 Report Posted December 17, 2016 30 dollars for an all day weekend tic? Is there a deadline Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 17, 2016 Report Posted December 17, 2016 Way to get after it!! Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted December 18, 2016 Author Report Posted December 18, 2016 I believe you can buy them online til the 24th. They would only sell for today there. Zero lines or crowds on 2 beautiful trails: Cannonball (black) was groomed and fast, Boomer (double black) was covered in small soft bumps. Powdery enough that snow often sprayed above my knees. One of my fav trails in PA. White lighting has major Whales that they are smartly leaving intact to preserve them through tomorrow's rain before spreading them out for holidays. Lapped them 16 times, about 2/3 on Boomer. 2 Quote

Kyle Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 Wonder if long haul will run this year Quote
RidgeRacer Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 I'd like to get to Montage this year at some point Quote

Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 1, 2017 Author Report Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Real nice day. 23 runs. A few fresh inches ungroomed on Boomer and White Lighting starting to form small bumps by end of day. Edited January 1, 2017 by Ski2Live Live2Ski Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Posted January 13, 2017 Heading back either Sat or Sunday to avoid the crowds elsewhere and use my other prepaid $30 lift ticket. Looks like all 4 Northface runs will be open. Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 15, 2017 Author Report Posted March 15, 2017 Well that was epic. 24" of fresh snow untouched before today with more falling - left ungroomed on Smoke, White Lightning, Rattler and parts of other black trails, with all the lower woods in play.

toast21602 Posted March 16, 2017 Report Posted March 16, 2017 Way to get after it! Too bad those runs aren't longer on the north face. 1 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 16, 2017 Report Posted March 16, 2017 Any liftlines and how long did the drive take?? Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 16, 2017 Author Report Posted March 16, 2017 There were some lift lines. Probably up to 3 min for large groups but as a single I had basically no wait. In good weather I can do the trip in 2:15 (vs 1:40 for Bluebird CB), but this morning was like 2:50 as there was snow falling and on road. Made it home in about 2:25, partially in rush hour. Would be nice if the runs were longer and the lifts were faster no doubt - but then the lines would likely be longer too. Quote
toast21602 Posted March 16, 2017 Report Posted March 16, 2017 Great pics !!!! I missed them at first, but now that I'm looking, it must have been an absolute white out! 1 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 20, 2017 Report Posted March 20, 2017 Wow I guess the montage passholders can come down to blue and take advantage of the temperature rising deal. 1 Quote
