eaf Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 Getting real fast already. And the next three days - under 16 state championship. Explains the closed Razor. Quote
eaf Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 Yay, live music in the Summit Lodge. Munching crowds in the Valley. The choice is clear. 1 Quote
RidgeRacer Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 Yes. Actually crowds are picking up. And I was talking about ticket window lines, not lift lines. Had to fix the pass issue. It had expiration date 02/20 for real.It's officially a shit show. The waffle Haus line is about 12 people deep. The six pack is almost at the turnstiles. Riding the quad Quote
RidgeRacer Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 Kinda choppy everywhere except for pristine Razor. Gonna be fun when it starts freezing up.Choppy but to be expected for a crowded night sesh. I'm like an excavator tonight... digging it 2 Quote
RidgeRacer Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 The 8 o'clock hour is here. Buses are getting ready to pull out. Crowds starting to vanish. The snow is nice. This next hour should be good. Oh and Switchback is the shit.Eaf are you out here enjoying this? 2 Quote
eaf Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 I got yelled at a couple of times by patrol, watched a bunch of half drunk high schoolers, learnt that Razors is full of urea and is frozen solid, and am leaving right now. It was a decent night. 1 Quote

It was a decent night. Why did you get yelled at? Typically don't see learned spelled that way, so I Googled it and apparently it's more common in British English than American English. That sucks that Razors is full of frozen urea, I'll be sure to steer clear. Don't want that stuff getting on my RTMs. Edited February 22, 2019 by saltyant Quote

Because it was closed to the public every single time I've been to Blue this season, except for MLK Day, at which time I skied it at least a dozen times. Edited February 22, 2019 by saltyant Quote
momskeeztoo Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 Snow was great today, sun was out all day. Took my first fall of the season, good day to tailgate. One of my best days so far. 2 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 I’ll try to keep this short and sweet because I’m tired. I arrived at the lower lot at 640pm and it was around 40 degrees and was pretty crowded and first time this season I had to park a row over. About 16 buses. In the house were Atomic Jeff, PARidge and Johnny Law. Snow was sort of early springish and due to the amount of traffic pretty choppy with some natural and manmade Root rollers on many runs. Main Street was nice on the top and rough on the bottom, same with lazy mile. Paradise had the nicest snow just like on Thursday and unfortunately SP3000...me and JLaw received a lecture outside the scanners then my final run I waited for the patroller who lectures us to start on Paradise then when I got near I stopped then made lots of slow and deliberate turns with him skiing beside me asking if I was ok. Then at the bottom as I was taking skis off he asked if it was my last run and I didn’t answer then he said have a nice night. All in all a fun evening and almost the weekend!!! 3 1 Quote
momskeeztoo Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 I only saw patrol standing on Lazy Mile, I guess to make sure no one was going too fast, and one standing under 6 pack at The bottom of Sidewinder, making sure kids had the bar down. Other than that, didn’t see them at all. I feel like they may not have enough patrollers there. I never see them just cruising around like other mountains. Quote

I wish they would lecture the people bombing the hill, who obviously can’t stop, or go around others. 3 Quote

So many other things to worry about than a few people skiing really well and totally in control on Paradise. I have a hard time understanding it. 1 Quote
