GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 24, 2017 Report Posted November 24, 2017 Hey All, I'm back from day one at Blue mountain the true mountain. Was up early like a kid on Xmas morning and stopped at the McDonald's on 145 for a sausage biscuit, hash brown and apple juice and ended up in the upper lot of Blue mountain the true mountain around 7:55am. In the house today we're Atomic Jeff, Shadows, Enjorales, Root, MBikr Mike, JFDan, PARidge, Kevin, Gary, Gary, Mrs Snowbunski, indiggio, Gary, IceEchilan, SandyAnt and many others. The lineup was pretty low key at the rope drop Atomic Jeff was first down I was second and my pass didn't work so I got it semi resolved in the lodge then mainly lapped nice early season snow on easy out to vista to midway to lower Main Street or come around to midway to lower Main Street. The lift stopped a few times. Sometimes for pretty long. The beers were cold midway was spicy and lower Main Street was smooth and chalky 1 Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 24, 2017 Report Posted November 24, 2017 Great morning. Lower Main Street was 9/10 for an opening day. I could crank them petty hard. JADIP Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 24, 2017 Author Report Posted November 24, 2017 Tarponhead also is the house and Slim. Quote
RidgeRacer Posted November 24, 2017 Report Posted November 24, 2017 Great opening day. Had the same ticketing issue that Doug did. Apparently there's a 40th anniversary commemorative pass that will be available shortly though which is classy. Conditions were nice Speaking of 40 years... The hoodie doesn't lie... 4 2 Quote

Then the lift moved at the torturous pace of 0.5 mph for the remainder of the ride, and I was only about halfway up. Edited November 24, 2017 by saltyant Quote
