toast21602 Posted January 16, 2019 Report Posted January 16, 2019 I’ve been away from this place for a week and it looks 100x better. They are pushing out Razors/back, lower park, Central Park, and blowing on NMDW, Switchback, and still parts of Razors along with other random fan guns. Challenge is a nice addition and WidowMaker is open as well. I guess the only things not being targeted right now are Sidewinder and Lower Sidewinder? Conditions were decent this morning compared to other Blue Mountain days. Challenge was cookies but then it was closed for a few race team elites. Everything else was 7/10 for grooming and snow quality. Flurries were flying all morning and it was cloudy. Called it quits at 10:00 before I have to head in to work. I’ll probably be up Friday morning next. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 8 Quote

Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted January 16, 2019 Report Posted January 16, 2019 When was it called Raceway. Was that an interim name? Pretty sure it was called Widowmaker when I first went to Little Gap in 1981 Quote

In summer 2008 the resort implemented a $3.1 million upgrade for the 2008-2009 ski season. It included improvements to the resort's snowmaking equipment, a newly built dining facility, and the addition of a new intermediate trail between Razor's Edge and Paradise named Dreamweaver.[6] Quote

Why am I the only person that remembers anything. Root the season ski patrol aired was the year the ski patrollers at Blue were the worst 2008-09 and that was also your first season regularly skiing at Blue. Remember you carpooled up to blue on Root Friday with Hardline from Alpinezone. That’s back when you were a gaper. 1 1 Quote
