Popular Post GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 14, 2017 Popular Post Report Posted March 14, 2017 Hey All, I'm back from another fun day at Blue mountain the true mountain. I woke up sometime around 5am and it was dumping snow. Looked like about 6-7 inches in the A. My drive up was uneventful and I stopped at sheetz for a donut and gas and ended up arriving at Blue mountain around 7am. Atomic Jeff arrived shortly thereafter and we drove across the street to the employee lot to see Johnny law just waking up. Root was also staying over in the lot and also in the house were Toast, Shadows, GSSucks, -Dan, Indiggio, Justo, MBike Mike, Nastar Glenn, Root, Ryan, Mrs Snowbunski, Matt Edge, TheDude4Bides and many others. Almost a foot of fresh in the liftline and a rowdy skate to second chair. The winds were howling at the top but not terrible the rest of the mountain. At the top there were drifts everywhere. First run I skied challenge. Was a combination of drifts and exposed areas at the top and I floundered a little bit lower down was very deep untracked snow. Density was a 7 on a one to ten scale with one being light and dry cold smoke and 10 being slush. The benefit of the beefy snow was that in most untracked areas you didn't hit bottom. Second run I skied Sidewinder which had tons of untracked, some drifts and more untracked. I repeated that and then went down switchback which was nearly tracked out but I found some fresh along the sides. Up Main Street chair and I had fresh on X-Ing and the right side of the bumps. Then back to the six pack. Skied a few more sidewinder runs still finding swaths of untracked and then was gonna check out honey bee bowl but seemed sketch and justo and GSSucks got after it. Then the snow started becoming mixed with graupel and then sleet and it really hurt my face. Into the lot and had some beer during the sleet storm. Then back on the snow and skied some fun stuff including the Tbar line a few times, Burma and right under the Main Street chair which had just enough snow to be good. Went to slopeside and they we're short staffed and I didn't feel like waiting an hour for a $17 bacon steeze burger so bounced skied to the base and had a beer with Ryan. Was a super fun day and props to PennDott for keeping the roads good!! 10 Quote
Shadows Posted March 14, 2017 Report Posted March 14, 2017 I need to get me a jeep. Things are badass Rotd for me was raceway to chute. Had some great wind lip spine thingies on the edges. Raceway was mellow and untracked for a while. I left around 1 i think. Best ski day ive had in 8 years. 1 Quote

I've never had so much float at Blue. T-bar line to the Main Street lift line was the ROTD I think. JADIP 2 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 15, 2017 Author Report Posted March 15, 2017 Wow that was a good nap. Other highlights included being able to ski back to my car in the lot twice and ski back to the lift from my car. On 3/14/2017 at 10:31 PM, Shadows said: "You been out yet?" Those yahoos parked in the middle of the entrance road. Lol. Also helped two different people get unstuck. 2 Quote
moe ghoul Posted March 15, 2017 Report Posted March 15, 2017 J-Law, how'd the "overniter" work out? No hassle? Stoked for the PASRonis! Quote
RootDKJ Posted March 15, 2017 Report Posted March 15, 2017 Epic day. Most fun I've had skiing in a long time. Feels good to be in a real bed tonight. 2 Quote

Never they are cool, they just wanted you to park in the employee lot. Blue doesn't get everything right but they are pretty cool about pretty much not caring what goes on in their parking lot. 5 Quote

indiggio Posted March 15, 2017 Report Posted March 15, 2017 We lapped Razors, mostly skier's right, which I thought was ROTD, Definitely a thigh-burner day! Hit up Slopeside for some beers, bowl of chili and fries during the sleet-storm. Came back out to it snowing again and more excellent conditions. Saw GSS ski down Chute beneath us while on doubles.
