Coming Soon Just Came. 2/1/21.

[toast21602]

Pretty dense bands coming through the area shortly. Wouldn't be surprised to see 3-6" fall in the next 2-3 hours. Some of these weather forums are cray cray right now with people blowing their loads over this.

The Lehigh valley airport had more liquid precip in the last two hours than the previous six. Wow just wow.  I think we’re gonna get 30”

What did the patroller say the 2nd time we went coming soon ? 

 

He started screaming something like 'seizing passes' and started radioing people so I stopped and just played dumb. I've never poached anything and was terrified to lose my pass. I don't know how strict they really are or if it isn't a remote possibility and didn't want to chance it. Looking back, prob should have just went.

Super jelly. Skied nothing but western groomers today

... and then proceeded to open it up 30 seconds later.  Stupid.

Yup, this is why we do dumb things like drive when people say to stay of the roads.  Razors was magical first run, and its been a while that we have the powder luxury.  Sucks for the lift shenanigans in the morning, I knew since Main Street chair was open for a while before the quad, the trail over there that typically doesnt see much traffic was gonna be found out, so Mbike, Glenn and myself stuck to Razors, Challenge, Coming soon, Side, and then 2 runs through the trees at Lazy.  2nd time at the trees we dropped in further up on Tuts, and surfed some turns down to the glade.  Good coverage, but there is some weird terrain in there cause i guess we were actually on a bike path.

Blue had posted on FB ways back coming soon would open with natural snow.  i mean, i guess technically they are the ones that get to decide when its open, but they really already had put the wheels in motion back in December when the basically said it could be skied with natural snow.  its a moot point now, but i doubt anybody would lose a pass over it.  maybe get a firm talking to, but no loss of pass.

Today was something else.  Enjoy the enthusiasm.  There is a video of the second run down with a better angle and wider view, but I think this expresses the emotions better.

 

I've lost track of how many times I've watched this.

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Enjorales cousin just messaged me and told me that he came too soon on coming soon and wiped out.  That’s premature skijaculation. 

[Schif]

That video was fantastic. So happy you guys got after it 

[pcklein31]

So jealous,, had to play a responsible adult and go to work today... The whole time I was cleaning the light fluffy snow off my car at 430am,, I was having second thoughts if I wanted to be responsible!! Ha ha 

Glad everyone got to enjoy a unique PA ski/boarding day!!

First run down there I saw someone on the last headwall standing there like a gaper. Maybe that was him.

Same...except the snow at least gives me an excuse to work from home today and tomorrow.  It's pretty much impossible for me to get a day off for now, and I already requested off for next Monday's Elk trip

What’s worse is the fact I got the automated “the office will be closed today” phone call at 4am this morning even though our office is permanently closed(closing) and is only open to retrieve any belongings left behind. Had the snow day excitement just to have the realization I wfh full time and don’t get snow days anymore

I presume it sounds like straight porn minus the sounds of women pretending to come 

[Benm]

Things I learned on my first pow day:

• Get on the road early and clean your windshield. 
• Trudging through high snow to the lift is not fun.
• Doing a 50 yard dash in ski boots is much less fun than that. 
• Skis a lot slower than I expected.
• Skis much different than groomers. 
• Disregard skipo.
• Shit bumps up quick.

I think that's it.

• makes people smile ear-to-ear
• beer tastes better after a pow day
• @toast21602 high fives / pole taps frequently

Would have enjoyed it for sure and glad folk got to. I had just as great runs at Whitetail yesterday. Plenty of powdery goodness to go around PA the last couple days.
