GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 7, 2020 Report Posted March 7, 2020 Hey All, I’m back from a fun Saturday at Blue mountain the true mountain. It was around 30 degrees when I arrived with strong winds and some early sunshine. In the house were Atomic Jeff, JFDan, JohnnyLaw, Mute, Ryan, Mixilplix, PSUFly, Bethlehem Ford Guy, Schifdawg, Rodney, Fritz, Lil John, Nastar Glenn, Mrs Snowbunski, MBike Mike, Root and many others. Second civilian chair and first run into the challenge wind tunnel and snow was better than expected firm but edgeable and very good consistent grooming. I did a repeat of challenge then did several runs on sidewinder which had similar snow but a bit less wind. Razors was closed to the race team and nightmare to dreamweaver for the free ride crew. No real liftlines both the six and quad running and a lot of tickets and rentals being sold. Fun parking lot today although kind of cold..tomorrow will be much warmer..all in all way better skiing than expected and a pleasant day. Only oucture i took was wegmans tomato pie that MBike brought!!! 7 Quote

Mixilplix Posted March 7, 2020 Report Posted March 7, 2020 Nice conditions this morning..Wind kept your speed in check on most trails....It does suck that they keep NM/DW shut down in the am this late in the season... 2 Quote

Salty what was your favorite fun today My favorite fun was surely the parking lot fun. My favorite run was Challenge, since all other runs were super annoying skiing into the damn headwind. At least on Challenge I still got some zoom. Challenge looks like a green now after skiing the steeps of Steamboat. I can't wait for tomorrow, blue skies and no wind! It's gonna be so dang rad!!

PSUFrankenstein Posted March 7, 2020 Report Posted March 7, 2020 Parking lot was good today, lots of good snacks and beer. Snow was firm and fast, but not really icy. I should be up tomorrow too. 1 Quote
zzslope Posted March 7, 2020 Report Posted March 7, 2020 Conditions were very good today, all season really. A little bit of brown starting to show near the bottom of switchback. 1 1 Quote
eaf Posted March 7, 2020 Report Posted March 7, 2020 Yeah, I remember how someone was saying recently that grooming is always inconsistent at Blue, and there are always trails that are in less than skiable condition... Well, today everything was excellent. Good job! 2 2 Quote
