Called Blue and they said they will be making the $60 season passes for 6th graders available for next year, probably in the summer. So I will get those when they come out and the 3 of us will be skiing Blue all next season for a grand total of $519. Plus their PA SKI Passports and some coupons I have will let them each make four visits there this year. Gonna start waking up earlier on weekends I guess. Can't argue with an affordable pass to the closest and largest of the places I like to ski in PA. 3 Quote

Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted February 21, 2018 Report Posted February 21, 2018 Kids will be psyched. I had told them on Monday to get all the skiing they wanted in this year because they would be getting less of it when they aged out of the 5th grade Ski passports. Quote

Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted February 21, 2018 Report Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) So now that I am more likely to do both weekend days at Blue, anyone have tips on clean, bedbug free, affordable hotels in the area? Edited February 21, 2018 by Ski2Live Live2Ski Quote

tarponhead Posted February 21, 2018 Report Posted February 21, 2018 So now that I am more likely to do both weekend days at Blue, anyone have tips on clean, bedbug free, affordable hotels in the area? Whatever you do, don’t stay at the Ramada/Whitehall. Place was under renovation, my nonsmoking room smelled like an ashtray. And you’re gonna have to answer this question from your daughters: “Daddy, why is that lady with the high heels and barely any clothes meeting a different guy every hour?” Like Chris Rock said, keep them off the pole! The inn at Jim Thorpe was nice 1 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 21, 2018 Author Report Posted February 21, 2018 8 hours ago, JFskiDan said: i got the confirmation email. In True Blue fashion, it doesnt specify that the pass is for 18/19. This can cause an issue when using your pass at another mountain like JH, to get discounts. And on that topic, If JH offers 40% off next year, and you ski for 7-8 days, it basically pays for the BM pass. Cool. If you weren't skiing you'd probably be spending money on other stuff. Quote

The Knights Inn and the Red Roof, both right at 22/Airport Rd, have received acceptable reviews from friends who have stayed there while visiting me for weekends, and are both definite budget options 1 Quote
RidgeRacer Posted February 22, 2018 Report Posted February 22, 2018 So now that I am more likely to do both weekend days at Blue, anyone have tips on clean, bedbug free, affordable hotels in the area?There's a hampton inn and a country Inn and suites in Lehighton on 209 right off the turnpike. Both of which are really nice. While I never stayed in either, I've used each multiple times for when I need to drop a D on my commute. Highly recommend 2 1 Quote
momskeeztoo Posted February 22, 2018 Report Posted February 22, 2018 Got my pass this am. Didn't seem to have any trouble with the link or anything. Printed a receipt, but got no confirmation email, so hope they didn't screw it up. I was going to activate my current pass for next year, got in line at the ticket office, and got behind a HUGE family renting and getting lessons. So I decided to do it another time. Quote
